Los Angeles, CA (WFN) -- You think all those "Law And Order" and "CSI" franchises are clogging the TV schedule? "Fear Factor" may soon be just as dominant.

That's the prediction by "Fear Factor" producer Matt Kunitz, who says the experience he had filming Monday's (Nov. 24) 90-minute "family edition" has him thinking of doing it as a series.

Kunitz says the show's ending is the most dramatic one in its history -- so much that the entire crew broke its cardinal rule of total silence on the set.

Although the kiddie version features parents with kids between ages 11-13, Kunitz insists none of the stunts are "watered down" -- including the one where contestants have to leap from raft to raft towed behind a speeding boat.

NBC hasn't ordered "Family Fear Factor" as a series, but Kunitz is rarin' to start filming. He also has high hopes for a show featuring couples.
