HERE'S a really good idea: take a washed-up TV hero, a rehab-hopping son of a reality rock icon, Wacko Jacko's sister and a cast member of Jackass and give them all guns. Real guns.Just when you thought "The Only Ones" couldn't possibly get any more ridiculous...
Just when you though reality TV couldn't get any dumber, we hear CBS is working on Armed And Famous, which follows celebrities as they enforce the laws alongside city police officers.
I rarely find myself rooting for disastrous unintended consequences, but I'll tell you what--if Zeppo Osbourne or whatever the hell his name is ever pulls a gun on a free man, he's liable to get a few more piercings.
Now that's entertainment...
(Question: "rehab-hopping"? I thought that would make him a legally "prohibited person." Maybe the show can be used as evidence to not only prosecute him for having a gun, but also those who provided it to him. The unintended consequences begin before they even air the first episode...)

Oh, PLEASE tell me this is a hoax, David! Stupid as Hollywood is, I can't believe they'd do something THIS insane!
ReplyDeleteI can believe Hollywood is that stupid. They never have had a close relationship with reality. However, I find it hard to understand that the cops who don't think you and I should be armed, will break the law by supplying arms to these (some of them) prohibited persons.
ReplyDeleteWhere the fuck is Bloomberg, now? Or the BATF***Everybody?
hey, they can't be any worse then the real cops...at least they PR agent will tell them NOT to shoot elderly women after kicking in their doors or punk kids through their doors.
ReplyDeleteDo they have to go through the training, pepper sprayed and tasered? That'd be fun to watch at least.
Next we'll have The Running Man ...if only we can get some political types as contestants.
Could this have anything to do with that incident with Shaq running with some cops a couple of months ago?
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping they send the celebs in first. Their gene pool needs some serious cleaning.
