Welcome To FANTASY ISLAND: For Real

NBC explores reality show twist on old series concept.

By Frank Kurtz     October 30, 2001

The NBC TV network is looking to revive the old fantasy TV series FANTASY ISLAND -- as a reality series.


The network licensed the rights to the original series from Columbia TriStar Television and is currently at work producing a pilot episode. As in the original series, people will journey to the title island where they will have their fantasy desire provide (within reason), no happy endings guaranteed.


As in the original series, each episode of the potential series will tell a number of different stories. And, yes, there are plans to for the island resort to have a Mr. Rourke-like host with an assistant.

I think this is the best idea NBC has ever had. I love it. I also hope that I get a chance to be on it. I watched every episode of Fantasy Island and was very disappointed when the show was canselled. That was one of the best shows ever on tv and I would love watching a show based on it.
