The brave Adrienne Rowsome aka Talonchick takes a contrarian view in defense of this program, while acknowledging its lameness completely. A worthwhile read: http://talonchick.com/the-reality-of-poker-shows/

What would be most + EV then for poker on tv?

The bad acting, "Ship it!" being shouted too many times, and overall arrogance are certainly a bit much; however, it just isn't that far from the reality I have seen every year at WSOP.

Improve the production and this show could have a shot.

Doyle Brunson ‏@TexDolly

@MattGlantz @Adzizzy I have no clue about this show. Chan asked me, we are friends so I said ok. I didn't even know what the taping was for

Sounds about right, who'd want to be in this

I like how when Johnny says "ten world serie[s] bracelets" it's obviously dubbed over. There was no reason for them to dub it but the fact that they did makes it sound made up. Even though it's not. This is just beyond bad haha.

This. There is nothing about this that will help or hurt the game in any way. It will never see the light of day on any respectable network at all so the only thing this series would do is expose those people who happen to watch ****ty 5th rate straight to internet webisodes. I'd be astonished if one episode is ever aired in any format, including online.

There is a better chance of Kimmie Gibler from the original Full House getting her own late night talk show than Johnny Chan's Full House ever seeing the airwaves.
