Steven Seagal's Reality Show Under Siege

 Steven SeagalWho knew Steven Seagal is still so hot people would sue over him.

A production company claims A&E stole its idea to do a reality show featuring Seagal. The Idea Factory claims it pitched some crazy ideas to A & E, including one where Seagal would live with Chuck Norris and Jean-Claude Van Damme. A&E was not impressed.

But of course, A&E eventually saw the light and decided to create a show with Seagal, sans Norris and Van Damme -- and sans The Idea Factory.

A&E says the show will portray Seagal's "real life."

Apparently, The Idea Factory has made rumblings of a lawsuit -- and also sent A&E a bill for "a vast sum." So A&E has filed legal papers, asking a judge to say they don't owe The Idea Factory squat.

Seriously, who would watch that show - America, let's get off the reality show kick - shows(?)full of strangers or D actors or no longer popular music people - getting a bunch of money to act like fools. We, well I do, want TV shows with real actors, with quality storylines where you actually use your mind, not your lack of, to be entertained.

Hollywood has gotten pretty sad.

When an actor/actress falls out of the limelight, they simply turn around and get themselves hired for a reality show.

I agree with Diane #4's comment. But I would tell her to forget about it.

There doesn't seem to be any originality left over there.

Hell, they can't even come up with a new idea for a movie. Nothing but sequels and re-makes.

I can't wait for reality tv to become passé so these nobody celebrities (and I use the term loosely here) just fade away thus forcing Hollywood to shake their arses in order to discover real talent.

Seriously,who would want to watch Seagal, Norris or Van Damme? Unless maybe you throw in Paris Hilton and Jlo. Those 2 would sleep with ANYONE!--even if Jlo is married---she is after all married to a loser. Now that's one FULL HOUSE full of LOSERS!

I see Steven Segal movies in blockbuster all the time, new ones, he makes 1 ever 3 months or so it seems, they are always out of them too so someone must like him, hes fat sometimes and other times he looks good but he always has the bad toupee. Personally I wouldn't like to see any of them do this, I don't think Chuck Norris would be in for this, Jean Claude? definately, but as you say, who cares?
