Victoria Beckham Coming to America

If you haven't watched it yet, you MUST check out Scott Baio Is 45 And Single.  I swear, after five minutes you're completely hooked.

Where does that air? I've always thought Scott Baio was a jerk (based on his comments about and objectification of women -- "you can see a beautiful girl walk in, and you know that somewhere, someone is sick of that"). But I do love reality TV, and if it's as addictive as you say, I'd watch!

It just started running in the U.S. on VH1.

Oh, he absolutely is that person.  The show takes a page from High Fidelity in that he's going back to old girlfriends and asking them tell him what's wrong with him.  And they are BRUTALLY honest.  That's where it reaches trainwreck status - watching him squirm while these women tell him what an awful person he is/was.

Hopefully it will air in the UK!

It's on iTunes... and at least the pilot you can download for free.
 

(is it a good trainwreck?)

You know those movies where you see a character and you just know he's totally going to stick his foot in his mouth? Where you know that he's going to do something incredibly stupid and you wish you could just reach out and prevent it?

Yeah... it's kinda like that.

It is for the kitsch factor alone.  The first girlfriend he talks to?  Erin Moran!

Seriously, though, I don't know if it'll hold up for an entire run.  If it's a free download, it's worth a gander.

I can't seem to access it as I'm in the UK. Oh well!

I believe you can set up an account if you have a US credit card.  I'm sure others would know for sure...

Yes, that is correct.

Guess it's not meant to be. I don't have an American credit card.

Right, well... I downloaded the free pilot, and true to consumerism... I am hooked.
Time to give it its own thread?

How many episodes have aired in the U.S.?

I have to say I watched this last night for a little bit after reading this thread.  It's the one where she had to go to the DMV.  I just couldn't look away.  At the commercial I had to turn off the tv!  She was just how I thought she'd be too.
