The next two weeks I will be in LA with 60 eager Norwegian TV and media
students. As part of the study tour, we will be part of the audience in the
TV-shows "A whole new ball game" and "Muscle".
 
None of these are being sent in Norway, so my background knowledge is
limited. Can anyone on Screen-L give me some insight in: -the background of
the shows; their main topics; average ratings and a bit about them from a
scholarly point of view?
 
And if someone knows of film and media events taking place between 15 and
26th of January in the Hollywood area this group ought not to miss, I would
be grateful for hints and tips.
