New MTV Sunday Night Lineup starts TONIGHT!!

TV Addicts rejoice, tonight you have the great pleasure of choosing from the already delightful VH1 lineup of "Rock of Love Bus", "Tool Academy", and "Confessions of a Teen Idol" and the newly formed "See You Sunday" lineup on MTV. "See You Sunday" starts at 9p/8c with "Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory", "The CollegeHumor Show", "Nitro Circus", and "How's Your News".

Fantasy Factory is Rob Dyrdek's return to MTV since the Finale of "Rob & Big" and it's essentially the same show times 10 billion. Rob minus Big plus his cousins and friends move his home into a huge warehouse where calamity ensues. Heres the trailer:


"The CollegeHumor Show" is based on the hilarious website CollegeHumor, basically the story is all the weirdo people are working together running the website and wacky stuff happens, cool thing is this show stars the actual employees of CollegeHumor like Streeter and Amir from the infamous CollegeHumor Prank War (haven't seen it? you're in for a treat) and the various other webshows found on CHTV.
Anyways, Kathy and I love these guys so hopefully this show will be good!


"Nitro Circus" is Travis Pastrana and his other motocross buddies basically turning ordinary events into action sports with crazy shennanigans ala Jackass. Don't know exactly how I feel about this, the trailer looks good but it seems like a recycled idea with a new twist. I dig the circus-y approach though. Look:


Finally "How's Your News" will air at 10:30p/9:30c. I can't wait for this! It's based on a documentary from 2002 in which a group of adults with disabilities hit the road to interview celebrities. (Actually it began as a video in 1998, a documentary of a road trip in 2002, and a short documentary/ tv special of interviews at the Democratic and Republican national conventions during the 2004 elections). The Documentaries were financed by Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the creators of "South Park", and now MTV has picked up "How's Your News" as a 6 episode series with the premiere episode airing tonight. You can find tons of the group's reports and interviews on youtube now and if you are interested in purchasing the documentary you can score it on HowsYourNews.com
Here's the trailer for tonight:
