Best thing on TV today, bar none. It seems like another cheesy celebrity reality show a la The Surreal Life, but this series isn't a joke. The guy's battling every demon possible, and during the first two episodes I caught he threatens his therapist phsyically, injects steroids to look better for a magazine shoot, and gets swarmed by groupies at one of his Vegas comedy appearances, to the point where he's forced to rent a car and drive home to his wife in LA before falling prey to temptation (one scene shows a girl flashing him and Bonaduce's head spinning). He's a trainwreck and he knows it, and in a weird way, you kind of feel for the guy while simultaneously shaking your head at his stupidity. I guess in a later episode he attempts suicide by slitting his wrists.
It's dark but fascinating stuff.

It was hilarious when his wife told him he has to stop training pornstars at one of his 3 gyms or she'll leave him, and he agrees to it, and then the next scene he's spotting this hot blonde in the weight room--and we're all waiting for him to tell her she needs to find another trainer, but all we see is her stacked body, and the conversation never comes.
The next shot is Bonaduce in therapy saying he only said yes to his wife to get her to stop nagging, but that he had absolutely no intention of quitting.
The therapist wants to dive across and choke him--sincerely, and Bonaduce just smiles, knowing there will be repercussions.

I know the DP, I worked with him when I was living in San Diego. He is a great guy and an awesome director. I think the show is pretty crazy and I'm planning to watch all of it.
I remember when my friend called me after Danny tried to killed himself! Crazy shit!

I can't figure out how he's always takin the juice, but he's really not that big. He was on Howard talkin about how tough he is and how he loves to fight. Drama Queen no doubt. I just watch Being Bobby Brown now. Him and Whitney are high and sweating; and I can't figure out how they're never home. They are always somewhere in a hotel kickin it, eating and spending mad loot on whatever.

i like when bobby and whitney spontaneously start grooving in the middle of a store or restaurant or even at the lake while camping, making up lyrics and doing the running man and letting the vibe (or coke) take over.

Just watched an episode yesterday.
It is appalling. Yes, he is a trainwreck, and TV is not the place for someone like that to be publicizing the serious therapy and treatment they need to help themselves.
It made me sick, and the fact that he's doing that show makes him, IMO, to be an attention seeking loser, totally out of his mind.
Freaking out because another guy helped your wife pop her back so she'd feel better? Getting up on stage and ruining her performance so he could call someone out?
Fuck that idiotic moron.

dude its all fake, figure it out.
he may be that messed up, but do you think that he didnt have an agent scouting this and lawyers signing contracts?
its fake as fuck, even if it is real.

yeah, we'll use really shitty cameras to make it look gritty and real. it's fake as fuck, no matter how fried that dude may be. he's trying to get paid and playing the role. he wants to be a busey. in ten years he'll be the 'cleaned up actor' that used to be real fucked up.
