I've been thinking with the sorry state of ANW/Sasuke spin offs (and sadly sasuke at the moment) and the reality tv furcation of ANW, why hasn't or doesnt the Ninja community fans of SASUKE who still keep up with the Japanese's show come together to create a good quality fan owned offical Ninja warrior or sasuke spin off that wouldn't just be a cheap copy of either show.
Eventually Canadian Ninja Warrior will become a thing, and if we want to avoid it being a carbon copy of ANW with unorigonal ideas and just using a random assortment of retired ANW obstacles then it needs to be produced by real fans, fans who will register it and treat the show as a sport. Not a reality show.
If we can put together ninja leagues and the like there is no reason we can't fundraise to buy a license (from TBS not NBC) get it on Global and really make it shine.
Shorter seasons but multiple a year, 5 "trials" and 5 "finals" episodes 10 weeks, each province only airing their provinces trial, so its like early ANW where each group of 300 is fighting for 10 spots.
I was thinking the "casting" could simple be a giant "mudrunner" type course with the top 90 from each sex and then next 120 in each provincial race forming the tallent pool with the exceptions of the people who qualified the last season getting their 10 spots in the trials guaranteed.
Simple 100 person finals with 4 well build stages that are SASUKE esque and resemble the format, with strict time limits, low clear amounts, agility stage 1, speed and stenthe stage 2, upper body stage 3, final tower.
Anyway thoughts?
