The whole "deathly scared of clowns" routine and the "Hal and his magician are trying to sabotage me because my bucket was missing" bits were toooooo over the top. Combine that with his make an alliance talk on the first episode was just a little much.

If they ever do another Surreal Life, it would be interesting to see Ant on with a REAL villain and not just some "want my camera time" villain.
