NEW SERIES

"I Pity The Fool" -- TV Land has picked up six episodes of this Dr.
Phil- meets-Tony-Robbins reality show in which Mr. T stars in the unlikely
role of social scientist traveling across the country to dispense his own
classic Mr. T style advice. Whether it's viewers struggling with problems
at home or fans seeking tips on gaining professional success, Mr. T becomes
immersed in the situation at-hand and becomes a catalyst for change. "I
Pity The Fool" is produced by Lionsgate in association with Left/Right
Films and Remag Guerilla. Stephen Belafonte, Ken Druckerman and Banks
Tarver are executive producers. Slated to premiere October 2006. (30
minutes)

"My First Time"** -- This six-part series looks at the roles that
changed celebrities lives. Bolstered by original interviews with each star
profiled, every 30-minute episode will feature some of the biggest talents
in Hollywood and trace their first "big break." Additionally, each show
will contain footage of that first scene that put them in the public eye.
In some cases, these will be performances that the stars themselves would
probably rather forget. Series is produced by Scott Sternberg Productions.
Premiering Wednesday, June 28 at 10 p.m. (30 minutes)

"Back to the Grind" -- Viewers join celebrated actors as they perform
the same job their characters did on their respective hit TV series. The
stars will be required to perform the same tasks they once did on-camera,
only this time without any help from writers. This six-part series is
executive produced by Michael Levitt and Eugene Pack. Premiere date TBD.
(30 minutes)

SPECIALS
"Boomer Knows Best" (working title) -- These four one-hour specials --
airing over the course of one week -- take an entertaining, fun and
thorough look at the boomer generation. From how they live, play, wire the
world and love, this series of specials tells the story of a generation
that has influenced the world like no other group and continues to stay on
the move blazing past traditional beliefs and stereotypes that get in their
way. World of Wonder is producing. Slated to premiere September 2006.

"Urban Myths and Legends"* -- This one-hour special sets the record straight regarding some of the most talked about stories that TV viewers
swear they've seen or heard. Did Mikey from the Life cereal commercials
really die from eating Pop Rocks and drinking soda? Did Greg Brady exhibit
odd behavior in the episode "Law & Disorder" because Williams was under the
influence? Did Carly Simon write "You're So Vain" about ex-boyfriend Warren
Beatty or did she write it about her ex-husband James Taylor ... or someone
else all together? Urban Myths and Legends talks to the stars, producers
and other television trivia sleuths to explore these entertaining and
intriguing figments of our collective imaginations. Gay Rothenthal
Productions is producing. Slated to premiere December 2006.
