An Opie & Anthony reality show?

They're throwing some ideas for a reality show around this morning. How awesome would a reality show be?

I don't think any company would risk the chance of accidentally filming kiddy porn at the compound.

I'd absolutely watch some sort of youtube O&A reality show. I don't think Opie would want his family on camera though.

I don't know. I don't think middle america is ready to see a middle aged Jim Norton paying for the company of a pre op transsexual.

It's more likely that Jimmy can get a reality show.

I think Louis Ck should team up with Jimmy and write a Louie style show for Jimmy the split personality self loathing man who sleeps with trannys.

No. Not at all. I prefer them doing what they do, where are are currently doing it. Now, if they were to host a show, similar to Tough Crowd, where it's a bunch of comics riffing off of each other, trashing one another, having a roundtable on current events, etc., that could be cool.

Some of my favorite O&A shows were with no guests, and a bunch of comics just fucking around and busting balls. Even if it's not their "A" material, it's pretty cool to almost hear their minds work.

Heck, even two comics can make it happen - the Vos/Birbiglia fight was funny as fuck, IIRC.

Even then... I still prefer it on the radio.

It will never happen. They had a comedy central piolit that never got picked up. Do people actually know who they are? By that I mean people who don't listen to them do they know of them? Everyone knows who Howard Stern is. I just don't think they are household names and people wouldn't care.

Now they could do some sort of web show or something and have it cater to the fans they already have.

It would be absolutely hilarious to O&A (and lil Yimmy Norden) fans, but wouldn't make a damn bit of sense to non-listeners. Wouldn't work for TV at all, IMO. That said, would be an awesome web series (fuck me for just using that term), done in the style of the Jim Norton Cribs from his days living in that shithole with Florentine.

For the most part, the show is already a 'reality' show. I don't think they need to branch out to visual media anytime soon, since they already individually do that. Then again, it could make for an interesting podcast...

Yuck, reality shows are for chicks with no life. fuck reality shows. yuck.

I think it could be real funny. Like jimmy said,with all the people associated with thr show making a 30 minute show wouldn't be hard. Hell just taping jimmy hanging at e cellar could be a show,add in a few minutes of everyone else,some comics,I think it'd be awesome.
