Man Band

For half a decade Boy Bands ruled the airwaves, maintaining a strange hold on their bustling, female audience and just as quickly they faded from the spotlight. Now, all grown up, VH1 has decided to bring members of these teenage heartthrobs together in the new reality series "Man Band." Living together under one roof, five boy band legends including Bryan Abrams (Color Me Badd), Rich Cronin (LFO), Chris Kirkpatrick ('N Sync) and Jeff Timmons (98 Degrees) will be challenged to create new music, a dynamic stage show and then perform as a new pop group -- all of which begs the question "Can lightening strike twice?"

"Man Band" is executive produced by Troy Searer and John Foy for Tijuana Entertainment, Tony Harding and Kennedy for Kandokid Productions and Jim Ackerman for VH1. Christian McLaughlin is the supervising producer and Michael Hirschorn serves as Executive Producer for VH1.

[09:46] erilyn oz: WTF!!!!!
[09:46] trumpeterofdoom: I KNOW
[09:46] trumpeterofdoom: OMGWTF
[09:46] erilyn oz: Does someone have photos of Chris fucking a goat?
[09:47] trumpeterofdoom: A LITTLE PART OF ME JUST DIED
[09:47] trumpeterofdoom: DIIIIIEEEEEEEEEED
[09:47] erilyn oz: I just...
[09:47] erilyn oz: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHY?
[09:47] trumpeterofdoom: i feel like i should call you to verbalise this

ETA: So who's the fifth guy? JM and I are wracking our brains trying to think of other boybands, and the only possibilites that are occuring to us are Backstreet (if Kevin fucking Richardson does this, we're performing an intervention) or OTOWN!!!

ETA(2): This makes House of Carters look like a good idea by comparison.

I'm pretty sure Kevin didn't leave BSB to be a part of something like this...

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

That's why we'd be doing an intervention ;)

[plastiqueallure.livejournal.com]

I seriously hope not. Then again, who really aspires to this sort of thing?

[grey-evil-twin.livejournal.com]

Sounds to me like someone watched Boytown and wanted to have a go.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

But that was about reforming your old group! We'd all be behind Chris if he did that *g*.

[grey-evil-twin.livejournal.com]

But you'll still get some Chris action! Pats for your fangirl pain. I have a bad feeling that this will go pear shaped, show two eps, before major pouting and "creative differences" can it.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'm hoping it'll more fall apart because the others can't cope with him ;)

[deliberatehips.livejournal.com]

WTF.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

MY BRAIN, IT IS HURTING!!!

[coreopsis.livejournal.com]

your ETA(2) just made me snortlaugh. Otherwise I have no words.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Just...this is all a bad dream, right? I'm actually sicker than I thought, and am feverish and hallucinating?

[coreopsis.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, if so, it's a worldwide shared hallucination. Aliens may be involved.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Fucking aliens, can't they stick to anal probes and invasions?

[plastiqueallure.livejournal.com]

if Kevin fucking Richardson does this, we're performing an intervention

I'm way ahead of you on that one. I had a similar fleeting thought, but I chased it away with a sharp stick. Head wounds hurt, yo. *goes to replace the bandages*

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Pass me the stick, please.

[plastiqueallure.livejournal.com]

I don't know if I can. The lady on the phone says that I should probably have a doctor look at it before I just snatch it out of my skull. She also says that I shouldn't poke at thoughts, no matter how ill-behaved they are.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I wonder if we have a brick lying around that I could use...

[plastiqueallure.livejournal.com]

*sends over spare bandages*

[vaudevilles.livejournal.com]

*whimpers*

I haven't stopped chanting no no no no no no no no no no no NO! for the last five minutes.

Maybe he'll sober up shortly and change his mind?

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Dear god, let him sober up FAST!

[vaudevilles.livejournal.com]

And I'd almost managed to feel ok about crushing on the man.

*sobs*

What? Did he not watch House of Carters?

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Blackmail is the only reason I can think of to do this.

[vaudevilles.livejournal.com]

or being offered large amount of money to obtain the drugs necessary to get through it. Surely he can't have got through all the dosh?

I guess I can see him being bored enough to think it's a good idea.

or they lobotomised him.

MTV just did something very similar over here in the UK, it was called Total Boyband, and had Danny Wood from NKOTB in it... along with 4 guys from UK boybands/groups.

It was trainwreck tv and it was great!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'm cringing so much, yet I know I'll end up watching it.

[marrymehowie.livejournal.com]

IT MAKES NO SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm whimpering in pain here.
Amen, sister.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'm trying to convince myself that any Chris is good Chris, but it ain't working yet.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bettina_/]

No words! I think I'm in a parallel universe!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

What next? Lance comes out as straight?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_bettina_/]

That would break my heart!

[nikomaria.livejournal.com]

*checks Calendar* Damn not April 1 ... oh please tell me it's a joke!!!!

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

That would be a great Aprils Fools Joke, if only!

[yetunknown.livejournal.com]

er. WTF!!!

(if this is what happens when I am not on the internets, I am never leaving my computer again.)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It was so fucking freaky it happened on a day when I was around to revel in the insanity with friends!

[yetunknown.livejournal.com]

hee, icon love!

[misha-bsb.livejournal.com]

FWIW, when Tommy Lee was doing "Rockstar" and his "Tommy Goes to College" shows, he'd call in to a local radio Morning Show every week to promote it and give highlights/preivews. Chris is pretty good about calling WXXL; maybe he do weekely update call-in to them.

[misha-bsb.livejournal.com]

^^^ please excuse the "typos"; I'm jumped the gun on raiding my Halloween candy stash, and I'm getting a "sugar high"

*spins around in chair*

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

More Chris in various media is something to look forward to. I just wish it wasn't for a format like this *sigh*.

[milosflaca.livejournal.com]

Sorry to butt in, but yes, I totally agree with you...
I hope Kevin is not the fith member or I'll shot myself... or the producers of the show.
I mean yes, it's Chris and I know it's gonna be good to have him singing and stuff, but still it's like Making the band! And that can't be good.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I think they only good that could possibly come from it is if Chris runs riot through the show.

[milosflaca.livejournal.com]

Yes, That would be like the greatest thing ever!

I can't wait for my computer to be fixed

[runzu.livejournal.com]

BTW I'm at the library...

OMFG! WTF?! WTH? FUDGENUTS!

I know I'm late, but WTF is Chris thinking? NO! NNNNNOOOOOO!!!!!

But I know I'd watch. Just to gaze upon his sexy beauty. :P But I still think this is a bad idea. If Ashley Angel could get his own show, why not Chris damn it!

Re: I can't wait for my computer to be fixed

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It's never too late to be concerned by this :(
