This was kind of sad & pathetic (Chris Atkins pouring pools, Adrian Zmed on the cruise ship) until Eric Nies showed up. Then it got freaking hilarious.

I predict Jason Hervey gets his butt shoved up his mouth at some point. He's annoying.

I love this show!!!! I watched it last week when I was sick and now it's on my DVR list for the season. It seems like they're barely advertising it so if you don't catch it when it's running you don't even know it exists. I like the concept though and can't wait to see if any of them are actually successful at getting back into the game.

I like it! I think it's got some actual meat to it, and I'm really curious to see if any of them will "make it" again.

This one sounds interesting

I may have to add it to my reality Tv list (under the guilty pleasures thread)

You definitely should.

I love the show.

It's very sad.

Eric is HOT HOT HOT HOT. LOVE HIM. But...he...wasn't a teen idol. Right????

I think it comes on Sunday at 8. Is that correct?

I wouldn't consider him one. Can't he just go away, he's had more than his 15 minutes of fame.

I'm probably the only one, but I don't like this show. I guess it's cause I don't recognize any of them (except for Eric), but a show about middle-aged men trying to get back into "the business" is just pathetic.

Man, can VH1 get any lower?--oh wait, they are coming out with a dating show featuring Ray J. I guess they can.

I know it's on Sunday but I'm not sure of the time. Eric looked pretty good after his makeover...but I agree that he may not have been a "teen idol". I think he was more of a "early-mid twenties idol".

It's aimed at older women.

If you don't recognize them, you won't enjoy it. Although the 2 Baywatch guys I didn't know at all, but for my money they both look a HELL of a lot hotter now (esp David Chockachi).

I'm sure it's scripted just like the Scott Baio shows were since he's exec producer, but if it gets Chris Atkins a Law & Order spot I'm down with it.

And yeah, I don't think Eric was a "teen idol."

If it gets Christopher Atkins a L&O spot, I'd watch and I detest L&O. Sigh.

Can someone explain why Jamie Walters is on the show? I really don't remember him being a teen (or early-mid-twenties) idol. 90210 and a single does not equal "idol". I mean, Leif Garrett or even Bobby Sherman = Teen Idol. Jamie Walters, not so much.
