Title: Superstars
Post by: shiznitz on June 19, 2009, 11:38:12 AM
I don't know how many of you are old enough to remember this format from the 1970s, but the company that owned the rights then is reviving it. My brother exec produced it over 2 weeks in the Bahamas (poor him...) I am just doing my sibling duty to promote it a little.

A professional athlete is paired with a celebrity. The duo competes against similar pairings in actual sport-related competitions like throwing a football through a tire, running an actual NFL obstacle training course, etc. This is NOT Wipeout for the stars.

Premier is Tues at 8pm EDT on ABC.

I can't remember who here made this, but it certainly wasn't me. I loved it though, and have held onto it ever since.
No reason to watch then  :oh_i_see:.

You're a good brother and I'll watch it on Tuesday to do my part as the online friend of the brother of some guy who suffered in the Bahamas to make this show.  I might not watch it after that but, then, it's not like we're online BFFs, right?  Who knows?  Maybe I'll become fascinated.  Some reality shows mesmerise me for some bizarre reason, although not usually ones that star celebutards, as Sky puts it.  I love that word.  Celebutards.  I almost wish I was still employed so I would have occasion to say it more.  Almost.

I will change my avatar. Even a pic like that gets long in the tooth eventually.
