Taxi Orange was an alternative to the Big Brother reality soap, which was quite popular in Austria. It was aired by the public television channel ORF The idea is to lock up a bunch of people in a closed environment (like Big Brother), but they are allowed to leave it in an orange taxi driving passengers around, so they are still able to interact with the outside world.
The habitat and the taxi interior were videotaped and used to produce a 30 minute daily summary, which was presented to the viewers. Each week, viewers elected a winner who had to decide on the exclusion of one colleague. The winner got 1 million Schilling. Two seasons (2000, 2001) were produced.
