Line 22: The show's on-air title was ''Fire Me Please!'' but CBS insisted the official title was ''Fire Me...Please.'' The show is a close adaptation of a short-lived British format, ''The Sack Race'', devised by Hugh Rycroft and first broadcast on [[BBC Three]] in 2003, with a repeat run on [[BBC Two]] in 2004. (Although the show is often considered to [[parody]] the popular series ''[[The Apprentice (~~TV series~~franchise)\|The Apprentice]]'', ''The Sack Race'' in fact debuted some months earlier.) The main difference between the two versions is that the British version was played entirely for laughs, with all of the contestants being young stand-up comedians (including an early appearance by [[Laura Solon]]), and no significant prize money at stake - the prize being merely the average daily wage for the job they took on. While ''The Sack Race'' was promoted purely as a comedy programme, ''Fire Me...Please'' was advertised as a [[reality television]] show. ==External links==
