NBC Lines Up Another Celeb-Reality Show
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, NBC, Announcements, News, Rumors,
Because we can apparently never have enough celebrity reality shows, NBC is currently developing yet another one.
Realizing that perhaps the very out there circus atmosphere was not their forté, producers have opted to focus on resorting to what they do best: partying!
Well, okay, maybe not the Paris Hilton kind of party, but the more formal kind. A typical episode for Celebrity Come Dine With Me will feature one celebrity who hosts a dinner party for his or her famous friends. At the end of the night, the party will be judged on presentation, food, and entertainment value.
Sounds kind of lame to you, too, right? I mean, I love watching celebrities, but watching them eat and be entertained doesn’t interest me all too much. I say that knowing that the show has found “success” in 16 other countries.

MTV Hills Crew Terrorizes Hollywood Residents

MTV cannot simply settle for irking television viewers like myself with their silly reality shows. They apparently have to frustrate poor Hollywood resident civilians, too.
Filming their prized “reality” stint, The Hills cast and crew have wreaked havoc among their Hollywood neighbors.
As if the unwanted paparazzi crews are not enough of a nuisance, the filming crew apparently takes up most of the street with their equipment trucks, leaving bright lights shining on the house until late at night when the socialites are not even home!
Not surprisingly, despite these and many more claims, an MTV spokesperson defends the production: “MTV is in accordance with all required production permits, and is working with the city of Los Angeles to assist it with neighborhood concerns that have been raised.”
They sure are good liars over there at MTV.

Janet Jackson Seeks Her Replacement on MTV

Reality TV producers over at MTV have apparently lured pop icon Janet Jackson into developing yet another American Idol-esque series.
“It’s really about finding who’s the next Janet Jackson or Justin Timberlake or Usher,” executive producer David Broome explains; however, I am a bit unsure as to why we would need to find the next Janet, Justin, or Usher when all three are still rather successful artists today. Perhaps a hint at Jackson’s fall from her pop star throne?
Either way you slice it, the upcoming MTV show sounds just like Making the Band to me.
Fearing blatant comparisons to its predecessors, Boome added, “We’ll find it from a pool of people who you wouldn’t typically find it from. We’ll go to YMCAs, church groups, local community centers and try to cast the show.”
Wow! A reality show with a heart? I doubt it.

Reality News: ‘The Bachelor’, ‘The Girls Next Door’
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Cable, The Bachelor, Gossip, Video,
For Season 12 of The Bachelor, ABC will be straying far from the blue-collar image they tried last fall. (Maybe a different type of guy will end up producing a different result?) Say goodbye to bar owner Brad Womack and say hello to “global financier” Matt Grant!
Last night on Dance War, the audience got their first glimpse of Grant, a British businessman. In his interview with Drew Lachey, the 27-year-old offered up a few choice chiches. In addition to calling the candidates “25 smoking women”, he said it was “ridiculously hard” to send someone home every week. Of course, the handsome guy never said why he needed help finding someone to begin with.
