Well this was bound to happen, if only because it seems that VH1 has the uncanny ability to see into the darkest recesses of my lump-of-coal-like soul, pluck from it my most shameful proclivities, and then fashion these into reality television programming. Yes indeedy, tonight the evil masterminds who brought you the cringeworthy yet eminently watchable "Shooting Sizemore" are shuffling out a new offering: "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew". And people? I CAN HARDLY WAIT.
Don't you judge me.
The show -- which premieres tonight at 10pm, SET YOUR DVRs NOW! -- charts the course of nine D-list trainwrecks admitted to Pasadena Recovery Center under the care of Dr. Drew. Among the victims participants: actor Daniel Baldwin, former pro-wrestler Chyna, amazonian headcase Brigitte Nielsen, Crazy Town singer Seth "Shifty" Binzer, and ultra hot mess and "American Idol" finalist Jessica Sierra.
Tonight's premiere, "Intake," is described on VH1's site for the show thusly:
Dr. Drew begins to analyze and assess his patients' struggles through a series of one-on-one meetings, but his attention is pulled away by a drunken, doped up Jeff Conaway who lapses into a seizure and ends up being rushed to the hospital.
Sounds, umm, painfully dramatastic?
So I guess the question is: will you watch? Wait, perhaps a better question is: will you *admit* to watching? And on a scale of one to ten, how much shame do you think I should be feeling about anxiously looking forward to this televised fiasco of celeb debauchery and dissipation?
