VH1 has been exploiting B-List celebrities since the first season of the ‘Surreal Life’ and now CBS is going to try their hand at it. Instead of just putting them all in a house to see how ridiculous they’ll act after a few drinks, CBS is giving them guns. The new show ‘Armed and Famous’ is set to premiere this Wednesday (1/10).
In ‘Armed and Dangerous’, five known semi-celebs will go through a police training course and then be put on the streets as sworn police officers with the Muncie Police Department in Indiana. After they go through the training, which will include weapon use and hand-to-hand combat, they’ll have the authority to arrest hookers, drug dealers and all sorts of bad-guys.
Tune in to CBS this Wednesday at 8 pm (EST) to see the protecting and serving of Erik Estrada, La Toya Jackson, Jason “Wee Man” Acuna, Jack Osbourne and Trish Stratus.
