TV Time-Out: #6


Big props to MTV's Rob & Big. I usually shy away from this network. They just don't show enough music videos, which was always their strength. They have a whole slew of reality dramas, which if you're like me, simply find boring. But Rob & Big is fresh, funny, and wholesome.

Let me quote the iTunes store: In this reality buddy comedy, professional street skater Rob Dyrdek and his best friend and bodyguard, Christopher "Big Black" Boykin, share a house in Hollywood Hills, bouncing from ridiculous moment to the next. Along with their mischievous little Bulldog, "Meaty," the unlikely trio make the world their playground and hit the streets on a constant quest for adventure and laughs.

The season finale is Thursday, 10:30 EST on MTV. You can download the first episode for free at iTunes.

Pru, I am glad somebody else has seen it! It makes LA look like a really fun town! (Which it is, provided you have your own show on MTV!!)

Yeah, I'll back you up on this show. I despise MTV, but every so often they come up with something halfway original and refreshing. It's fun to see such a genuine friendship. Rob and Big for Prez! Hah.
