Nazi Reality Show


Reallity shows often put contestants in uncomfortable positions, but in the Czech Republic, TV producrs are taking that idea to the extreme. A new series called "Holiday in the Protectorate" sees a family of seven experience what it was like to live under Nazi occupation. The show's creator says she wrote it in memory of her grandparents.
