They Must Think We're Really Stupid...

Meet NBC's 'Celebrity Circus' Performers - Joey Fatone hosts; Rachel Hunter, Christopher Knight join troupe - Zap2it

NBC, I've just lost a great deal of respect for you. First you bring back American Gladiators. Then you produce a made-for-TV-movie of Knight Rider. But this is just too far!

If Skating with Celebrities didn't work, I'd like to see how this will.

And for it to be called Celebrity Circus, don't you need, um, celebrities? Washed up actors like Christopher Knight and singers like Joey Fat-1 aren't exactly celebrities. Until Brad Pitt starts swallowing swords or Jennifer Lopez is doing elephant tricks, I'm not watching...

Been on in the UK for years. Depending who is on it, it can be really good.

Does the UK version have celebrities or has-beens?

A mixture of both.

Well, these celebrity reality shows here in the US seem to always have people who are no longer Hollywood's A-list. We're always stuck watching people who are only doing this to pay their electric bill. They are boring people. That's why tinsel town doesn't want much to do with them anymore. The only show I've seen that uses real celebrities would be Dancing with the Stars, and even that would be a stretch.

Some people like this stuff believe it or not :p

Is that how you subliminally admit that this stuff is your guilty pleasure, ♪? :p

xD

No, but I know people who like it. And a lot of other people must like it if they keep airing this stuff :p

I saw a commercial for this during Last Comic Standing and as far as "Celebrity Stuff" goes it doesn't look too bad. I probably won't watch it, but it might be good for a few chuckles.

It's also been in Denmark, but it was nothing special. At all.

You know, you could always not watch it. That'll show 'em!
