I have no idea where to put this article. Unfortunately, the link to the contest entry form doesn't work 
Maybe just too early though, I'd check back if interested.

"“The Next MacGyver” competition opens today and the deadline for entry is April 17, 2015. Initial idea submissions will be roughly one page of content to include a proposed title and genre, short description of the show, breakdown of lead characters, and ideas for episodes beyond the pilot. A panel of judges from engineering, entertainment, and academia will select 12 contestants to further develop their ideas and pitch them to another panel of judges at a live event this summer. Five finalists will be selected at that time, and pilot scripts will be completed by the end of this year."
