Rob Worsoff, the producer of the alleged pitch, said that the program would not be a “Hunger Games” style show that many pitch critics have claimed since the reports became public.

“I feel good, I’m not the National Security Department, so I can’t say -you go the whirlwind of the last 24 hours after my launch document was filtered to someone in the press. I don’t know where they are exactly, but I feel that we are in a good way,” said producer Robsoff during an interview with Kaitlan Collins de CNN.

“I have an interest in networks, I have an interest in production companies to stop and I feel good,” said Worsoff.
Collins asked if he thinks that making a reality show of something as serious as immigration is to trivialize the immigrants who fought during the efforts to reach the United States, Worsoff compared the potential spectacle with the greatest NBC losers, and the criticism he received when he first debuted in 2004. Worsoff said that the holdings were so high for the celebrity contestants’ Weight.
“When the older loser was announced, there was a vitriol coming from the press. They said,” How you are going to shame people. And I would argue that the bets there Kaitlan were so great, if not older, because people had heart disease and diabetes, and you were going to take people who had a grotesque overweight and, if they didn’t work well enough for you in your program, you will be expelled, “said Worsoff.
He added that many North citizens -Americans could not pass a citizenship test and wanted to take the North -Americans to compete against immigrants, but did not specify what competitions would be in the program.
DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin collided with the validity of reports that said that DHS secretary Kristi Noem had not participated in the programming work.
“The reports are completely false, and a confrontation of respectable journalism,” McLaughlin told the Irish star. “Secretary Noem has not” supported “has not even reviewed the pitch of any Show Scripted or Reality Show.”
“The National Security Department receives hundreds of television launches a year, ranging from documentaries surrounding ice and CBP borders to HSI’s Coll Blanc research,” McLaughlin added, referring to Homeland’s security research. According to McLaughlin, each pitch “undergoes a thorough review process before refusal or approval.” He was initially mentioned in the Daily Mail article that Noem had launched his support behind the program.
Noem is also mentioned that he has offered several officials within the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services.
According to a scheme of the show obtained by The Daily Mail, contestants would travel through a train in the United States while participating in various “cultural” competitions, for example, rolling logs in Wisconsin. The season would end with contestants arriving in Washington DC and the winner was sworn in the steps of the United States Capitol building.
“Along the way, we will be reminded what it means to be American, through the eyes of the people who want it most,” reads the Worsoff playing field. The producer of the show, born in Canada, defended his pitch.
“I am not affiliated with any political ideology,” he said. “As an immigrant myself, I am just trying to do a show that celebrates the immigration process, celebrates what it means to be American and has a national conversation about what it means to be American, through the eyes of the people who want it most.”
On the pitch, Worsoff names Sofia Vergara, Canadian Ryan Reynolds and Mila Kunis, who was born in Ukraine, as possible hosts that are welcoming the pre-Fetts migrants on Ellis Island in New York. Contestants would jump aboard the train and go to each of 50 states to get to know “North -Interesting Americans” and learn about the history, culture and peculiarity of each region while viewers learn about the contestant
“We will join the laughter, the tears, the frustration and the joy, listening to their funds, as we are reminded of the amazing thing that it is to be American, through the eyes of 12 wonderful people who want nothing but to have what we have,” reads the pitch. Immigrants would be divided into teams that would face one hour.
The Daily Mail reported that some DHS members have raised problems about the possible optics of turning the immigrants’ situation into a reality television program. “When will the Secretary Noem prioritize prioritizing the media photographs and stunts?” A source allegedly asked. The focus on self -promotion is to harm our ability to deliver the deportation mandate of President Trump. We need leadership committed to logistics and results, not financial gain or reality show theatrical. “
It was also reported that the Pitch outraged by many online users. Several people responded with a disgust drain, calling it a dystopian and comparing it with fantasy series like hunger games.
“If this idea of grotesque reality show is real, Kristi Noem has officially sunk until new depths. Returning to immigration-a journey of life or death for many. “A shameless woman. Under contempt.”
“I am watching hunger games, but this is *** giving me vibrations to the man,” said a second person.
