Yeah, his credentials look pretty good. I sent my acting and pool resume to him. I'm anxious to get back out there and add a few more credits to my file, and maybe go back to Hard Times to hit a few! Sounds like a fun project.
 
Maybe I'm just old and miserable... but I seriously have no interest AT ALL in a pool related reality TV show. Is it just me?

All these shows follow the same format...

a. choose unbelievably retarded irritating bell-ends, then...
b. put them in unrealistic manufactured/scripted/controlled situations

hey presto! entertainment!!!!

Personally I'd rather stick wasps up my arse

Now a 2-hour documentary looking into the lives of real road players... I'd watch that... as long as it avoided crass 'entertainment' for people with 4 second attention spans.

Just my opinion... not meant to offend anyone - if reality TV is your thing... then knock yourself out, enjoy!

Cheers

Same guy that was at ultimate 10ball talking to players and scheduling interviews? At last 2 ultimate 10ball events? I talked to him for a bit- seems like a nice guy with a fun take on pool life. If half of the reality shows out there can get a season or two- why can't pool? I mean c'mon..... Deathball and scooter in the tar room at derby would be good for a week alone! Add buck tooth and we have a season! Without even seeing a ball hit!

Keith McCready

I have to say that Keith McCready has the biggest personality and a great pool game to back it up and a mouth that would make Mike Sigel sit down and cover his with a handkerchief.

Who knows the old boy might have one more movie left in him......

I'd buy that for a dollar !!!! Think if we all start chanting at once jam will hear us and let Keith come out and play...!? Lol Keith Keith Keith Keith.....!!! (Good call Joey)
 
Better ask the producer how much he pays! The Producers of American Pickers wanted to do a show of a friend of mine and it was heck of a lot money(much more than any top player makes), but he didn't want to give up his secrets.

Ice Road Truckers. History Channel. Now that was one of my favorite shows.

I'm an ex trucker with lots of ice experience. If the money is right, I will drive my Harley across the frozen tundra at 30 below with nothing on but a pair of Speedos and sandals with a pool cue strapped across my back and play anyone from any of the diamond mines up there. With my Speedos and sandals on as well.

I have been in a few movies as a stand in. I know how to stand around and pretend that I know what I'm doing.
My people will call your people.

Its not just you.

Only reality show I watch is Duck Dynasty. God help me I know the thing is scripted but it cracks me up. Must be the redneck in me. I watched those guy's videos before they had a show and they were just as funny. It also helps that they are actually good people so I'm not supporting a bunch of a-holes...
 
Pool, Poker & Pain?

Speaking of Pool related Reality TV Shows, whatever happened to "Pool, Poker & Pain"? last I heard anything about it, they were trying to get production started, I think, then it just fell off the face of the Planet. It's been quite some time now since there was any mention of it, and it was going to be produced by someone associated with Deadliest Catch, so if they can't get something on TV, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting on this new one!
 
I haven't received a call yet so I guess I can put my Speedos away.

And darn, my man nipples were engorged at the thought of being a tv celeb. I'm crushed. At least I don't have to do my thing on the casting couch like the last time.

So far

So far I have not seen the names of Danny Basovich or Dippy Dave who with Scooter would be my top 3.

Television production company is now looking for pool players with Big Personalities for a new cable TV series.

Do you have the swagger and attitude of a big-time road player? We are looking for pool players who can be entertaining and fun to watch. We are looking for both male and female players. No experience as a road player or tournament player is necessary. You do need to be able to drop everything and hit the road with your cue.

If you think you have what it takes, email us via private message. Please tell us about yourself in the email and include an attached photo if possible.

If I only had some game, some gamble, some personality, some good looks, and didn't have a wife, a child, and a job I'd be your man.
