NEWS: Do You Want Your IQ to Decrease? SuperGroup Delivers!

MUSIC: SuperGroup Delivers! SuperGroup, the Superest Group of Them All!

Every once in a while, something pops up to remind us that the end of civilization is near. One example is The Anna Nicole Show. Another might be the popularity of Tenacious D. Prepare yourself for another pop culture tragedy in the form of VH-1's SuperGroup; the newest installment in VH-1's steadfast mission to create the worst television humanity can handle. (See: The Flavor of Love).

Because I've long since proven myself incapable of promoting content using all-caps, I'll let VH-1 fill you in on this project themselves:

Fuck it, I'm excited now! While the press release's content may read like the subplot of an episode of The Simpsons, it is in fact quite real. Filming for SUPERGROUP began back in February and the band, named
Damnocracy, even played a one-off show in Las Vegas in March. Who's that, you ask? SUPERGROUP!

OK, sorry, trying to contain my overhwhelming excitment here. Whew. A step back, a breather.

In a desperate attempt to salvage the attention spans of male viewers, one of the episodes of SUPERGROUP features Seinfeld's wife – porn star Tera Patrick – hanging out with Bach's wife (and manager) Maria for a photo session. SUPERGROUP! (Oh, God, sorry about that.)

The show premieres Thursday, May 18 at 10 PM. Click here for an unnecessarily large portrait of, ummm, hold on a second here...SuperGroup.

How did I restrain myself just now, you ask? I pictured these guys playing stadium anthems from decades past, and it did wonders for stamping out my enthusiasm.

What the hell do you have against Tenacious D?

I'm an editor on Flavor of Love and proud of it. If you have anthing you would like to say, I'd love to hear it.

"reconquer the rock world"?

Yeah! Lay off the D! The D is cool!
Tenacious D is more SG-worthy than most of the crap news I've seen posted on this site in the last week.

Psst. Tough guy posturing isn't very intimidating on the internet.

Yeah man, Tenacious D is fucking awesome.

Woooonder boooy....what is the secret of your powers...

Should I know who Evan Seinfeld is?

According to AMG, he was the bassist in Biohazard.

So... no.

So the answer would be "no", then.

seriously!

I'm not posturing. I'm totally down for some civil discourse on my show. I would like to know if the author has any concrete argument against the show, or if he's just making a joke at the expense of it.

I only know who he is because he was in Fuck. That's also where I learned who Tera Patrick is. I became intensely interested in one of them...

And Sebastian Bach plays a recurring character on Gilmore Girls and is thus awesome.

And I offer my support of B_Werner with regards to Tenacious D.

Flavor Flav is automatic must-watch TV for me.

He played Jaz Hoyt on HBO's "OZ" , so maybe?

Never heard of it.

Looks like anorexic girls straddling an ugly motorcycle.

We all have the right to think that Tenacious D is dumb. I choose to exercise that right.

damn, and here i was hoping some of these guys would have to get McJobs or something....

OH NO! Not the NUGE!

What do I have against Tenacious D? Nothing personally, But their recorded output is offensively bad. Sorry. Just my opinion.

And sorry, but Flavor of Love is certified trash TV. There's nothing wrong with working on trash TV, but don't be appalled when someone suggests that it is what it is.

And here I thought they were just called Skid Row.

I Love the D, can't believe you're baggin on em.
SUPERGROUP might be cool if it did'nt have Uncle Ted, Sebastian, Evan? and Bonzo jr. in it.
