Why isn't it airing on Lifetime?



You don't know this yet, but your fragile liberal sensibilities were offended by the insinuation I made in the headline. Keep reading to find out why:

The Travel Channel is pounding the pavement to find a few bad motorists.

Cabler has picked up reality competish "The Streets of America: The Search for America's Worst Driver."

Based on an international format that has sold to more than a dozen territories, show puts bad drivers through a series of challenges to find the worst of the bunch.

First of all, fuck you Variety, because I know for a fact that neither "cabler" or "competish" are words. This isn't twitter, you're supposed to be a real magazine. Second of all, this is possibly the worst idea for a tv show I have ever heard. And I've watched True Blood. Yes, let's take people who should not be driving in the first place and encourage them to drive even more poorly in order to win cash and prizes! Hey, why not add alcohol to the mix while we're at it? After all, there aren't consequences for that in this country either - just ask Donte Stallworth (wow, that couldn't have been timed better). Oh, and if you don't understand why I chose that banner pic, you shouldn't be reading this blog.
