Fox Eyeing Celebrity Prank Show!
Filed under: Reality Television
The latest reality show Fox is looking at will be a mix between Punk'd meets I Get That A Lot!
My Parents Are Gonna Love You is a new series that will have everyday people bring their celebrity fiancees home to meet their parents - except it's all for the sake of the show! The longer the "couple" can convince the parents of the match, the more money they win for them.
"It's big, noisy, fun and harmless," said Jean Michel Michenaud, co-CEO of producers Angel City Factory, who executive produced such terrible shows as the Joe Millionaire, Temptation Island and Obnoxious Fiance.
It hasn't been officially picked up, but there is a lot of interest.

Tony Regrets Saying He'd Leave Kate!
sounds a little too far-fetched…lame. next please!
This could be a very fun show to watch. I want to be on it!!!!!
I'm gonna give this show half a season, then it get's cancelled.
I'd watch… loves me some FOX
i would! but i dnt think it would last long
Sounds… mundane.
I think this could be alot of fun to watch/be in on.

lol, that does actually sound like it could be quite funny. Would love to see it aired
it sounds ricockulous…
Another VAIN attempt by Hollywood. Are the parents supposed to "react" because the fiance is on tv? Wow….that's lame. I like how they us the words "celebrity" and "everyday" to describe 2 sets of people who couldn't possibly have anything in common. I remember when Punkd started of like Candid Camera and made fun of everyda people before Ashton started EXCLUSIVELY punking celebrities. Then it became so formulaic and often Ashton wouldn't even show up for the skits. So no, I would not watch!
I would LOVE to be on that show! I'd take Robert Pattinson home and be ALL OVER HIM since he couldn't do anything about it. So what it would gross out my parents, they'd be happy for me since I'd be dating a movie star!
I wish I had thought of it, it sounds like a wonderful premise. Should be a lot of fun - yes I'd watch!
No. It sounds too susceptible to corruption/fakery. Like all a broke college student has to do is say, "Hey, Mom and Dad, can you pretend for a few hours that it's totally normal that I'm suddenly engaged to Lindsay Lohan? All you have to is nod your heads, show some baby photos, and welcome her to the family. If you do this, college and two years of law school will be completely paid off." Hell, my parents would go for the bait, and they're normally more honest than George Washington on a waterboard. These are trying times for families. I think most audiences should be intelligent enough to see through the act.
Who knows, though? I'm pretty sure none of the couples (and few of the families) on "Tool Academy" or "Parental Control" are real, and those shows seem to do well. I don't watch them, though, and won't be watching this either.
LAME
Ashton is married but does he have any kids of his own? Is his wife possibly a beard? Anybody know?
It will probably be canceled before it airs.
Heck Yes I would watch that. Seriously there are a lot of stars out there that have relationships with non-celebs.
blah blah blah boring adolescent crap. He should take acting lessons instead.
They already did this show, it was my big fat obnoxious fiancee
