07/18/2007 Dr. Steve-O, Paging Dr. Steve-O
In other Jackass related news, USA Network announced that it has ordered seven episodes of DR. STEVE-O, a reality program starring Jackass alum Steve-O! DR. STEVE-O will follow the adventures of one-of-a-kind personality Steve-O, a member of a dying breed of live-life-to-the-max daredevils who is disgusted with the alarming number of "wussified" men in America.
"We are thrilled to be collaborating with USA Network in bringing back someone with such a sizable, existing fan base on cable," said Jonathan Murray, President, Bunim-Murray Productions. "Steve-O is certain to complement USA's innovative programming."
"Steve-O brings his unique personality and sensibility to USA's incomparable line-up of characters," said Jeff Wachtel, executive vice president original programming, USA Network. "By joining him with WWE MONDAY NIGHT RAW, USA will guarantee the most thrilling night for male viewers on cable."
He travels around the country on a mission to "de-wussify" wimps, nerds and couch potatoes who have been nominated by their buddies, girlfriends, wives, mothers, coworkers or even have nominated themselves. Administering his brand of "extreme attitude adjustments," including shockingly hilarious stunts and embarrassingly funny and demented dares specifically tailored to each patient of the doctor on call, Steve-O will confront the guys, infiltrate their lives and shock them out of their shells.
| Yea, Im fucking thrilled about that too! But, will the USA Network be able to handle Steve-O? While the show is produced by Bunim/Murray Productions ("Real World," "The Simple Life"), there may be some hope to the limits Steve-O will be able to push... and we all know he will! The show is slated for 7 episodes, should be just enough to get canceled!!! "Steve-O is certain to complement USA's innovative programming." Are you fucking serious!!!??? Ok, I give it until episode 3, then they'll deliver the cancelation hammer FOR SURE! |
