Ha Ha Ha, WHAT?

Must see TV, you guys. From Page Six:

Wendy Maguire, mother of "Spider-Man" Tobey Maguire, is about to become a reality TV star -- along with Tobey's younger brother, Weston, 15 -- in "Growing Up Maguire." Bob DeBrino -- who produced "Find Me Guilty," directed by Sidney Lumet and starring Vin Diesel -- plans to show how Wendy, a single mother, sacrifices to shield her children from the downside of the entertainment industry. Weston -- who rides motocross, skateboards and snowboards -- will provide plenty of action.

We're gonna need a bigger DVR!

Sometimes it's like the TV can just see right into my heart! How else does it always know what I want* before even I do?!

*Sarcasm.

Don't turn to Page Seven, or you'll see that OctoMom got her own show.

It's like Living Lohan only... what?
I could see the appeal to some people of Living Lohan... America loves to watch Lindsay downward-spiral her way into our hearts and minds. Her family was constantly front and center.
I didn't even know Tobey Maguire had a family.

His little brother better have a fake orange tan and severely gelled hair, or this is going to suck.

I read that quote from Page Six three times, then googled "Find Me Guilty" before I accepted the fact that Sidney Lumet directed a film with Vin Diesel in it. Of course, if that clown Bob DeBrino can get Lumet to do that, who knows what he's capable of. (He's not capable of anything.)

Why is DeBrino a clown? Might be doing some projects with him and want to know what I'm getting into!

Nothing shields your family from the horrors of a media machine obsessed with using the minutia of your phony-celebrity lives to tear your psyche limb from limb like plastering yourself and your 15 year old on a reality TV show. They will never get their grubby little "downside of the entertainment industry" paws on you there Wendy "Mom of The Year" Maguire.

How does he find the time to ride all those things when, theoretically, he's spending a lot of time buying Bubble Tape?

"Propagating Perry" -- a new reality show, starring 17 Again's Matthew Perry's mother, is about raising her other son, Flip, to not become Matthew Perry.

Yes, the best way to protect your child from fame is by putting them on a tv show. Also a great way to avoid the paparazzi is by having a film crew follow you around for six months of the year. And the best way to avoid sunburn is by hiding in a tanning bed.
