Defoe's eighteenth century classic tells of a young man who leaves home on a sea-borne adventure that sees him overtaken by pirates, kept as a slave, and eventually marooned for decades on a desert island.
A tale of survival, spirituality, and self-reliance amidst the cruelest elements of nature and humanity.

Every Reality Show Ever
Season after endless grueling season, groups of self-important, horny arrogant brats fight to stay alive in dumbass competitions for the love of money. Yes, money. They don’t really give a damn about the bachelor/bachelorette. They just want to get laid - and to win.
