VH1 Expands Its Original Programming Slate
Clear your calendars on Thursday nights. VH1 is expanding its original programming calendar to include at least 7 new unscripted shows to air not only on the traditional Sunday and Monday nights, but also now on Thursdays. Some of the shows sound interesting, and should be hits. The others…well, you can judge for yourself. MediaWeek gives the low down on some of the new shows:
Upcoming Thursday night entries include the aptly titled competition strip America’s Most Smartest Model, as well as the self-explanatory (if not ill-advised) Danny Bonaduce’s Child Star and The Salt ‘N’ Pepa Show, which looks in on the ‘90s hip-hop duo as they attempt to jump start their career/friendship.
Other projects slated to appear in the next two quarters are: Click!, a competition series pitting would-be fashion photographers against one another; Free Radio, a half-hour improv comedy strip; the documentary series Lords of the Revolution and Old Skool with Terry and Gita, a five-episode Bunin/Murray curiosity that VH1 characterized as “The Golden Girls meets Borat.”
The bold emphasis in the above quote is mine. I made that one stand out because it is the description that has me the most curious. What in the world could that show be like? Wasn’t Rose on the Golden Girls kind of like Borat already? Leave me some comments on what you think that show will be like or possible titles.
