If I Can Dream

If I Can Dream is an all new kind of reality television, created by Simon Fuller. The premise doesn’t sound too out of the ordinary: five young entertainment-industry hopefuls move into a house together in Hollywood, CA. They’re all under 23 years old, with a little experience in an artistic field. Amanda Phillips is a former NFL cheerleader and Playboy model, hoping to be an actress or model. Ben and Kara both want to act, too. Giglianne wants to make it as a model, while Alex Lambert and Justin are both trying to find careers as musicians. What sets If I Can Dream apart from the pack is its format—there’s no competition, no money or contracts to win, and just like real life, no guarantees. The Dream house, where they live, is outfitted with 56 cameras, and every week a highlight reel of the week’s action is pieced together and put on-line for viewing. The episodes then air on broadcast television at a later date. This method allows fans of the show to watch the five hopefuls develop their careers in real time, receiving constant updates of how everyone is doing. If I Can Dream will follow successes and failures, the friendships and tensions of these five young artists, bringing you the action right as it goes down. MORE
