Same Name

description

The latest concept in reality television is Same Name which pairs up a "regular guy" with a celebrity who just happens to share the same first and last names. Of course a name like Betty White (at least five in the Boston area alone) is an easy one to match up but how does the well known comedienne compare with someone from the so called normal world? The idea could be interesting if the celeb trades places with the real person and spends some time in their shoes and vice versa. Can Floridian Justin Bieber (they found one in Jacksonville, Florida) sing? In the pilot episode we see a landscaper and electrician from Lake Jackson, Texas with the name of David Hasselhoff trade his life with THE David Hasselhoff, formerly of Baywatch and Knight Rider. Will the Hass electrocute himself? And is Mr. Hasselhoff from Texas better looking? Those who share names with celebrities seldom have anything else in common other than that name thing and it could be humorous observing how difficult it may be for the pampered set to actually work at real jobs.

Russian Dolls

2021
Reality & Talk Shows
If you like watching shows like the Jersey Shore and all those Housewives of"¦ somewhere, you just might fall in love with Russian Dolls. Full of hair extensions, sex, arguing, gold chains, partying, drinking (vodka of course), and plenty of techno style music, these Russian Dolls are not the type to sit on a collectors shelf. Brighton Beach is home to the largest Russian American gathering place in New York. This community has plenty to show off including young beautiful women such as Anastasia, a 26 year old who has long blonde hair (with help from some hair extensions), deep tan, toned body, and ample make up. Her future hopes include college graduation but she's not trying very hard. The Levitis', Marina and Michael are owners of a popular local nightclub and Michael has somehow become involved with corruption that involves a state Senator. But don't let the gold chains, sex, and non stop partying keep you from watching Russian Dolls. After all the show's producers were out and about drumming up cast members by posting signs advertising for the next "Situation" or "Snooki" characters to step up and audition for the show. Just like other shows with similar formats, Russian Dolls are not afraid to showcase their intimate lives and all the sordid details viewers could ever ask for. Not exactly the prostitution game as the name implies, but plenty of steamy sex and exhibitionism.
