File Under 'A' for Awesome: Keys to the ViP is back

Anyone who knows me relatively well, or has been reading the blog for a while will know that I have a real 'thing' for ridiculous reality TV shows (see, for example: Age of Love, Beauty and the Geek, The Hills, and, sadly, The Bachelor - but, in my defence Kyle made me.... or something). And, while I really do enjoy all those shows - and I do - none of them stack up to Canada's own Keys to the ViP.

For the uninitiated, Keys is a show where two self-proclaimed-comedy-network-selected contestants engage in a picking up girls olympiad (Barney would be proud). Each episode consists of three events designed to test the 'playas' skills, and the panel of (international) judges decide based on the contestants performance who wins the ViP experience with the "sexy ViP girls"...

The moral of the story is, its back (as of Thursday last week) and it was better than ever. Liz and I both agreed that it was the most lopsided victory we'd seen during the show's short history with Josh "the Matador" Maltin absolutely destroying "Maximum Max" Boateng. Maltin was absolutely clinical getting 3 phone numbers plus a DFMO*, while Boateng seemed to excell at picking fights and not so much in the picking up department...

Its on, in Ontario, at 10pm on the Comedy Network - kudos to Comedy for picking the show up again for a second season...

So, I've gone approximately four months without TV and finally caved in and decided to pay $52.99 a month primarily for two reasons:

1. I was going to bankrupt myself, and put on 25 pounds watching Raptors games at TJs. Also, the odds of me getting drunk, angry, and thrown out of the bar for cursing at Sam Mitchell through the TV because he's done something stupid (again) were getting progressively higher.

Sidebar: I've just seen a preview of Lions for Lambs, does anyone actually think that Tom Cruise could be believable as a Senator after this?

2. Keys to the VIP. A reality show where self proclaimed "players" compete to pick up girls at a bar. There's a wikipedia page.
It's on right now: Thursday night, 10pm on the Comedy Network.

Hands down the most hilarious reality show, ever.
