Yeah, I think I’d watch this:
They already have their million dollars. Now, the Barenaked Ladies may get their own TV show too. The goofball Canuck rockers are working on a variety series pilot for Fox, a rep for the band confirmed Tuesday.
While the publicist wouldn’t go into details on the show, the Hollywood trades report The Barenaked Ladies Variety Show will attempt to bring the band’s trademark mix of lighthearted stage banter and catchy upbeat music to tube viewers. The quintet will not only perform their own tunes, but will also play exaggerated versions of themselves in improvised sketches featuring guest actors. The bits will be woven into a story line that will run through each episode.
