During the week TV3 announced their autumn TV schedule and among the many shows, is a new reality show set in Tallaght. The show is aptly named ‘Tallafornia’ a take on the popular ‘Jersey Shore’. So is it going to be a success? The gut instinct says no, Ireland has already copied The Hills with Fade Street and that was a complete crash and burn.
So why do they think this will be superior? With their unique selling point being “Four hot West Dublin boys & fabulous West Dublin girls will spend four weeks living, eating, working and partying together”. Can’t see this hanging around for that long, Irish people are very hard to impress and are extremely judgmental, good luck to the eight future reality stars, it’s going to be interesting.
We now have the Irish version of ‘The Hills’ and ‘Jersey Shore’, what’s next ‘The Kardashians’? So which Irish beauty could be the next Kim Kardashian? There is a few that spring to mind but not quite sure any will be able to captivate the world with their assets to the same extent!
The future of Irish TV is full of American story lines; let’s just hope it has more of Irish sense of humor then the American copycat version we have been seeing on ‘Fade Street’.
