It turns out that even a disgraced baseball star can get a reality show as long as he is a 71 year old guy marrying a 30 year old former Playboy centerfold. Pete Rose is set to star on a show for TLC which will follow him as he gets set to marry Kiana Kim. Right now the order is just five episodes. If anyone watches the show then it could expand and follow the couple on a daily basis. In addition to the wedding, Kiana also gets her breasts reduced and Pete considers calling the commissioner to talk about getting his lifetime ban removed. Sounds riveting.
ok, she looks like a heshe. cant stand him. Im gonna say it: Id rather watch the kardashians if I had those two choices!!!!!
ReplyDeleteRose should be reality gold. The ideal candidate will have a combination of histrionic, narcissistic, antisocial and paranoid personality disorders, as well as low impulse control.
ReplyDeleteThrow in substance abuse issues and you're set!
ReplyDeletePut Pete in the Hall of Fame!
ReplyDeleteIn other news, Hungry Girl has this to say: "Let's all send HUGE congratulations to my ridiculously talented husband Dan Schneider and the casts & crews of both iCarly & Victorious -- on a total of FOUR Emmy nominations today!!! YOU ALL DESERVE IT!!! I'm so proud..."
@AKM -UGHHHHH!
ReplyDeleteI cannot stand this woman - the next Rachel Ray. Complete with an asshole husband too. Except add pedophile to this one.
Barton, how is Pete histrionic? I mean, I won't argue with your other diagnoses, but inappropriate seductiveness? Exhibitionism? Not to mention that the ratio of woman to men with HPD is four to one. I SUPPOSE Pete could be that one, but I don't see it.
ReplyDelete*WOMEN to men...
ReplyDeleteHoly shit, this is ridiculous!
ReplyDeleteso this is what happens to over the hill playmates they let sloppy old man climb on them.
ReplyDeleteI've heard some sports fans who've told me they are gonna watch this. Not me. Don't care.
ReplyDeleteI'm not into baseball, but Pete Rose's story has the potential to be a goldmine for reality TV.
ReplyDeleteGod is there no end to reality TV crap!
ReplyDeletePete Rose has the best hair.
ReplyDeleteHe STILL has no shame!! HATE HIM!!!!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, great hat girl who's name I don't care to learn.
ReplyDeleteSecond of all... I got nothing. Oh wait, nice facelift, Pete!
Hungry Girl is married to Dan Schneider? Ugh, off to unsubscribe from her email list.
ReplyDeleteIf Rose hadn't bet on baseball, I'd say put him in Cooperstown. But the fact is, he did. There's no excuse for that. He deserves to be banned from the Hall of Fame. If Shoeless Joe and Buck Weaver can't get in, Pete Rose sure as hell doesn't deserve to.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't stand this twat when I was a kid, and he hasn't improved with age. Does he actually think this trick loves him? Who thinks this marriage will last longer than two years?
I know of Pete Rose cause of the scandal but he always reminds me of the one episode of HIMYM when Bryan Cranston plays Teds boss and he has a baseball signed 3 times by Pete Rose that Lily steals cause he was mean!
ReplyDeleteAnd Pete Rose? Banning him from baseball is 100% the right call - you don't bet on your own team. Banning him from the HoF? That can be reversed once he is dead and can't benefit from it. A reality show marrying his 30yo wife? Pathetic, but he was never a nice guy.
ReplyDeleteTits and an ass. Please don't watch this
ReplyDeleteI met Pete Rose once. It was one time too many.
ReplyDeleteI'm against putting Pete into the Hall of Fame too. He lied and lied and even when he was caught he lied. Finally he "came clean" in order to sell his book. My husband, a huge Pete Rose fan, disagrees and says he should be in the HOF on talent alone. So I've compromised - Pete can go in the HOF after he's dead - in a special wing with Barry Bonds and Mark McGuire (or however he spells his name). I read one episode of this show will be him dragging his "family" on a visit to Cooperstown. Publicity hungry much?
ReplyDeleteBTW - who is Hungry Girl?
ReplyDeletePete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame. He never did anything worse than anyone else has ever done, and certainly was never accused of betting AGAINST his own team. No one played the game harder than Charlie Hustle.
ReplyDeleteFYI-I was just at the Hall of Fame and he has lots of memorabilia there, just not a plaque in the actual Hall. I talked to a number of people down there who know him and they all feel the same way. Lots of T-shirts available for sale saying to put Rose in the HOF.
That said, the show sounds pretty dumb.
@SusanB, her name is Lisa Lilien (sp?) She basically comes up with lower calorie versions of food using a lot of processed stuff, at least from the episodes of her show I've seen. I think her show is on Cooking Channel.
ReplyDeleteCan someone link to the Dan Schneider post? I think I remember reading about it but can not find it right now.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to throw up on TLC's shoes. Reality TV all sucks, IMO. TLC is the worst of the worst.
ReplyDeleteLisa Lillen makes frankenfoods. Oh look, you can have a reduced calorie peanut butter cup* (* if you don't mind eating a bunch of nasty chemicals...gotta keep the calorie count to under 100). She uses sugar-free/fat-free crap in everything. The reviews for her product on Amazon are very suspicious too. Every book she puts out will have, like, 500 reviews. 450 of them will be 5-star reviews. Almost all of those 450 will be hyperbolic, short, and written by someone who's never reviewed another product ("This is the best book ever!!"). Methinks someone is gaming the rating system over there. Oh, she's married to the pedo Ricky from "Better Off Dead?" Add it to the list.
I'm with SusanB's husband and Ice Angel. Always have thought that way.
ReplyDeleteOh wow I'm so shocked by this pairing....NOT.
ReplyDeleteWhy would anyone want to be a Playboy playmate at this point? Other than being a great advertisement for escorting, they end up marrying dirty old men. Yum.
ReplyDelete*Yes I know someone can come up with a few that are success stories, but still.
Please, I am begging, no one watch this. Let it make news ONLY because it is the first show ever that NO ONE watched.
ReplyDeleteMaybe his bookie can offer him good odds on being cancelled, see if he'll take that bet.
Rose is in Vegas frequently selling his signature, he is an ass.
ReplyDeleteThey look like the kind of couple I see a lot of in Vegas at events, it's a game I play looking for the bought and paid for dates.
Wow. He is one ugly man. His fingers really gross me out too.
ReplyDeletePete can't get in the Hall of Fame until they let Shoeless Joe Jackson in. Then, we'll talk:)
ReplyDelete@Agent*it - agreed.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to watch this, but my husband is really looking forward to it, so I may be trapped.
@Susan B,
ReplyDeleteYou and I can watch it together if it happens and leave the spouses together.Your Broward neighbor.
Dan Schneider is married to a blogger named "Hungry Girl"??? Is she hungry because he ate all the food in the house?
ReplyDeleteI also think Charlie Hustle should be in the Hall.
ReplyDeleteI do not, however, wish to watch his pathetic reality show. He has absolutely no shame. Which is a shame, because, damn, the man could play baseball.
