Good Reality Show Pitch

It's like The Real World or Big Brother, only the roommates are half suspected murderers, half undercover cops. And the suspects get sleep deprived and tortured just like they would in Gitmo, or they just get sleep deprived and have to do a bunch of stupid challenges that have the same psychological effect, and because it's a reality show, they signed up for it so it's all legal. And then they confess (or even just reveal details they formerly denied knowing that link them to the crime, not realizing the undercover roommates have any context for what they're talking about) thinking it's how you win the grand prize and then their confession is used as evidence against them. BOOM! You know who's the winner on that reality show? AMERICA.

So, obviously, the viewers know who the murderers are, right? This isn't like trying to sort out the cops from the criminals, right?

I think it could work.
