Well, they promised that they would not, could not, and uh… would not do a sequel to Joe Millionaire. The Fox folk’s said that it was unethical, and unthinkable that anyone would fall for it again, so no reason to do it. Well, scratch that last reason, and ethics are for pussies, because Joe Millionaire 2 will be hitting your TV as soon as they can shit it out. Dig:
Fox programming chief Gail Berman would not explain how Fox expected to mount a second edition of the series, in which 20 women competed for the affections of a hunky $19,000-a-year construction worker they had been misled to believe was heir to a $50 million estate.
I cant go into any detail, Berman told TV critics during a conference call to discuss the networks first-ever February ratings derby win.
We have cracked the way to do it.
BAMFs simian insider network is reporting to me that the answer lies in Berman’s very statement made above: crack. That’s right, they’re moving the show to Vegas, and staffing the chick pool with completely idiotic gamblers-anonymous rejected crack whores. And rather than $50 million, they’re going to claim this fella has $100 million. That’ll throw them off the trail. Well, that and the crack, and the constant torment that is their lives. But won’t it be fun in the end when the happy couple has their strength tested when Joe Millionaire is revealed to be another penniless guy who works at the Vegas Coke Museum? Will love prevail? Stay tuned!
Speaking of everlasting love spawned from the Fox network, here’s what IMDB had to say about some controversy regarding the last episode:
Zora Andrich, who had been making some unflattering comments about Evan “Joe Millionaire” Marriott in recent interviews, confirmed in an interview with TV Guide Online that she and Marriott have broken up. “I realized almost immediately after the taping of the final episode … that it wasn’t meant to be,” she said. Asked why that attitude was not apparent on Monday’s Aftermath special, Andrich replied that while she and Marriott were “both genuinely happy to see each other … there was also some editing done that gave the viewer more hope than there was.”
*sniffle*… you mean they’re… NOT TOGETHER!?!? *curls up into fetal position* All my hopes for love and happiness have been shattered into thousands of fragments of their former unified self! If those two can’t make it, what chance have the rest of us got? *Sobs*
Oh well, there’s always season 2. Hopefully the new Joe has a seriously great crack hookup.
