A&E is filling the void left by the The Two Coreys (who are now Corey Feldman and Corey Haim) by giving MC Hammer a reality show called Hammertime about his wife and five kids according to The Live Feed.
“Here’s a dad with five kids, married to the same woman for more than 23 years, living in the same place where he grew up and going to church every Sunday,” Roth said. “He’s had his ups and downs, and it’s what makes him such a character you root for.”
“MC Hammer is an iconic figure in American pop culture, but many people only know him for his music and fashion sense. Now A&E takes an unprecedented look behind his larger-than-life personality and into his life as a devoted husband, father and business entrepreneur,” said Robert Sharenow, senior vp alternative at A&E.
Hammer has been offered reality shows before. Roth said he told the rap star he wanted to focus on his future rather than the past.
“I really wanted to tell the future of MC Hammer,” Roth said. “What kind of dad is he?”
I don’t know for some reason this show doesn’t get me excited like OMG I can’t wait for this show. I just don’t think he is as interesting as The Two Coreys, but I could be wrong.
The 11 episode series will air later this year and starts filming next year.
