VH1 Survives The Motor City Madman
VH1 has greenlighted a full-season order of "Surviving Nugent," a reality series that drops contestants into the wild world of rock legend Ted Nugent. Encouraged by ratings returns on a well-received two-hour special featuring Nugent, who also has been featured on other VH1 programs such as "Behind the Music," the cable channel ordered additional episodes to air next year. Details on the series are not yet available, but "Surviving" is expected to be something of a hybrid of MTV's "The Osbournes," focusing on the unconventional lifestyle of a bad-boy rocker and his equally odd family, and "Survivor," which emphasizes outdoor competitions not for the faint at heart. A select number of contestants would be invited to brave the elements at Nugent's ranch in central Texas -- as well as withstand the "Motor City Madman" himself. His wife and son also will star in the series. (Andrew Wallenstein – hollywoodreporter.com)
