Scummy yummy?

I've often said that game shows should be at least a little grubby and sleazy and down and dirty. Guess I should be happy that the producers of Killer Karaoke have taken my advice...to the max.

The premise: truTV, home of some of the worst, most delicious trash currently on offer to bored TV consumers,  inflicts hideous things on would-be music stars. This clip shows a poor girl getting dunked into a tank full of snakes while she tries to warble a country ditty.

She doesn't vomit, anyway, though she sobs a lot as the snakes curl around her frail self. The evil host, doing a superb impersonation of Richard Dawson in Running Man, enjoys every slimy minute. I don't see how the show can miss with truTV's cretinous audience.

UPDATE: The linked story offers this tidbit about the host: "[He's] former Jackass star Steve-O, who once said, 'My brain is f*cked up from using so much cocaine, ketamine, PCP, nitrous oxide, and all sorts of other drugs.'"

Steve-O has a brain, even a f*cked up one?
