Reality TV shows got a shot of adrenaline this summer with the launch of Fox's "Stars on Mars," a 12-part, "Survivor"-like elimination series with a sci-fi twist.
"Stars on Mars" features minor entertainers, B-list singers, internet influencers and former pro athletes called "celebronauts" who compete against each other to avoid banishment from a Red Planet habitat after completing a series of tasks doled out by Mission Control, William Shatner of "Star Trek" fame.
