Congrats, trgdr777. You win money.


Want in on this?

You'll have another chance. This week's theme is:

What networks need to do to get us to watch TV again.

Viewership continues to fall as our generation spends more time on the internet and gaming. So what would the networks have to do to get us to watch again? New shows? Improvements on existing ones? Spin-offs? Bringing old shows back in a new way? Ingenius new promotional stunts? Use your imagination and photoshop the results.

Post your entries in the forums.

If you'd like to see the many worthy submissions that didn't make it, check out the submissions thread. Or take a look at What The World Would Look Like If The Other Side Won The War. For pictures too strange to make up, but not to make fun of, check out The Daily Craption Contest.

Got an idea for a future Cracked photoshop contest? Let us know.

Oh my god, some of those were absolutely hilarious. I loved #12 - that would be the next level.

Extremely funny. The winner should be #16 however. Why? Jesus,like I have to explain EVERYTHING? #1 is very very good however.

Some of the recent contests have sucked, with few submissions being actually funny. Thanks for raising the bar back up, people. Lots of good ones on this list.

#18 was already done on Reno! 911, a Cmedy Central original, now available on DVD. Be sure to order your copy of Reno! 911: Miami from Amazon.com today!
