theweaselkingThe Booth At The End.
There is a man sitting in a booth in a diner. You come to him, you tell him what you want, and he checks his book and reads out what you need to do to get it.
If you do what he says, you get what you want - whether he tells you to help 5 people cross the street, or to murder a stranger, all you have to do is do what the book tells you, and you WILL get what you want.
Oh, and keep him updated on your progress. That's part of the deal.
(Did I mention that the camera never, ever leaves the booth? Because it doesn't. Everything is told in the interviews, in the booth.)
This is hands down some of the best TV in years.
