The New York Reality TV School is a different sort of acting school. Rather than memorizing lines and reciting Shakespeare, these students have one mission in mind: To get on the cast of a televised reality show.
And it only gets better--the school that teaches you how to get on a reality show is getting its own reality show. Roy Bank, president of Merv Griffin Television is in final talks with NY Reality TV School founder Robert Galinsky to create a reality series that centers on the school and follows its development.
