Milosevic in the Morning

I had another idea for a TV show, inspired by the fact that people who do dumb things (think Monica Lewinsky, for example) end up benefiting from the publicity the stupidity garners. "Milosevic in the Morning" would a morning talk show hosted by Slobodan Milosevic. He would discuss world news with other deposed tyrants, demonstrate how to cook all kinds of disgusting dishes, and do pretty much whatever the heck he pleased.
Saddam could have his own show too--perhaps a weekly news magazine called "Sunday's with Saddam" or a world music program called "Hoppin' with Hussein". With enough of these guys producing shows, we could even start a new cable TV channel for them--perhaps "Tyrant TV", "The Dictator Network", etc.
At this point, you may be thinking, "yeah, ha ha. Very funny." But consider the benefits to the world: if these guys make enough with their TV programs, we might be able to convince the rest of the world's dictators, tyrants, and otherwise undesirable leaders to change professions. The world would become a more peaceful place, and we could reduce military spending and live happily ever after.
Hmm, maybe Milosevic should stick to talk, leaving room for "Cooking with Castro".
