George Foreman's Reality Show - Family Foreman

When you think about it, it's not all that a surrealistic idea.

He has charisma. He doesn't mind saying (or lying) about whatever subject should the situation require that. He's got a lot of money. He's a smart business man. A great public speaker who can give politically correct answers, but still have a clear opinion on things (even if it changes every week). Starting from nothing and going to where he is now, he is The American Dream in the flesh. He is famous. Seriously, all he needs is a quick course on how politics work and connections. With that, you have something much better than a John Kerry. And if his detractors make films of him punching Norton while he was down, at least we get to see some fighting! :bbb

 

i agree he does talk some **** but he has proven that he is a genuine guy. he did a lot of work kids up and down the county for many years before his great comeback

 

Personally, I don't think that he'd sound anymore foolish than Arnold Schwartzeneger or Jess Ventura - both television and movie personalities. Foreman did indeed come from humble beginings, then returned to poverty after his first run of success. He then did the impossible and resurrected himself.

I think Foreman is genuinely a good human being. I firmly believe that his efforts to raise money for his youth center were genuine ones, as well as his work as a minister for a decade. I don't think he had any idea how succussful his comeback was going to be, therefore I doubt that he had his own self interests in mind.

Foreman should try running for some sort of local office such as mayor of his community, or perhaps even governor of the state of Texas. I would bet money that he'd do fairly well in his campaign.

 

I've watched it so far. It clearly isn't "reality" as most of the reality shows, but it does keep me somewhat entertained fro 30 minutes. I thought it was very dumb when in the first episode he talked about another comeback. :roll:

"I can do it!"

"ok dad."

"Don't tell your mom though, she'll say no"

"Ok, I'm just gonna tell Big Wheel"

George is then in the gym hitting the mits and heavybag, then it switches scenes and all of the family just happens to be sitting at the counter and Big Wheel spills the news. George's wife comes walking into the gym, and George has head gear on for hitting the mits.:huh She gets all pissy and such and George walks out following her (not even sweating). They have a talk later on in the show and he decides to stay retired.

George is obviously a good actor and will lie through his teeth just so his popularity goes up. He's a good buisness man and a loving father, although I've heard he's not so lovely to fans off cameras and not in crowded boxing fan areas. George earned every penny he has, even if it meant being a fake, who's still richer than I'll ever be?

 

Holmes already has a TV show. It's not Nationwide, but he talks about the kids and trying to get them off of the streets. He has Joe Frazier as a guest a lot and also tries to figure out what the different nuts were thinking when they did crazy things.

 

Yeah and it was almost as bad as this show. I will say that the daughter that sings isn't bad looking, and the son that play's football looks like he inherited his dad's strength with that catch he made
