I love Flavor of Love just as much as anyone. I sat through two seasons and enjoyed myself immensely. I am currently watching – and recapping – spinoff #1, I Love New York, for y’all here. I will recap spinoff #2, Charm School, too.
Charm School, in case you hadn't heard, takes some of Flav’s divas from both seasons and teaches them some manners. Comedian Mo’Nique (Fat Chance, The Parkers) totally has her work cut out for her. (And I can't wait!) Hopefully, they'll have a special class on not pooping in the house.
I thought both of these spinoffs were fantastic ideas. Now, I’m wondering if Vh-1 is dipping into the Flavor pool once too often. C’mon, how many ways can you twist this idea around without getting redundant – or boring?
Well, Vh-1 has decided they’ll try at least once more. Why not? Three times the ‘charm’ so to speak, right?
In July, the network that used to show videos exclusively – those were the good old days – will begin airing a total of ten episodes of Rock of Love with singer/songwriter Bret Michaels of Poison. Poison is an 80s hard rock/glam metal band that had hits with “Talk Dirty to Me” and “Every Rose Has Its Thorn”. (Yes, I am a fan.)
Mr. Michaels is looking for love with a lady who understands that his first love is performing. She has to be beautiful and secure. She can’t be the jealous type. This, coming from a man who made a video with Pamela Anderson.
Good luck finding her, Bret. I'm sure I'll wind up watching.
