Must see TV

The TO Show review:

Let me preface my review with the fact that I used to be a big TO fan when he was playing for the 49ers.  He would just catch the ball, make fun of Jeff Garcia and do outrageous touchdown dances.  Then, like most of the country, I grew tired of his antics towards the latter years in San Fran, Philly and really tired of them in Dallas.    So when I heard that a TO reality show was going to air this summer, I rolled my eyes like everyone else in disgust.  But, it’s fantastic television.

He wanted to do this show to reveal the different sides of TO, mainly the Terrell Owens side.  So the show is TO, his PR crew (Kita and Monique) which consists of his two closest girlfriends who are a total pain in the ass to him, and his body guard Pablo.  So the girls invite him out to LA to work on his image during the offseason.  Yeah, that’s what he needs.  You’re going to be living in Buffalo for the next year or so, so to make the transition from Dallas smoother, we’re going to have you live in Los Angeles for the summer.  Women.  The girls find him a ridiculous house overlooking downtown LA, and TO’s sole focus is the real estate agent who is renting him the house.  Later that night they all go out to a club and the PR team doesn’t like it when some “hoochie” is talking to their client/friend.  Before you know it, over half the club is back at TO’s new pad for a “impromptu” catered late night party.  Monique and Kita are pissed off that Terrell would invite all these hoes back to his new apartment.  But obviously TO knew nothing about how all the girls got back to his place.  “Pablo invited them all back.”  Pablo knows better than to bring 20 skanks back to the apartment.  TO then goes on a date with the real estate agent that just got him this apartment.  Then, to get the girls off of his back, he calls his ex-fiancé to see if they can give things another try.

Only one episode in and its already reached the “DVR new episodes” level.  You make not like football TO, but if you like watching badass, funny dudes, then you will certainly be entertained by the TO Show.  (Mondays 10pm on VH1)
