All the correspondents on this show have mental or physical disabilities - sometimes both. They're packed into a bus and traveling across the country. On the way, they're producing a mix of man-on-the-street interviews and hard-hitting coverage of phenomena like the Kentucky Derby, SXSW, and picking up girls in Las Vegas.
Here's just a few of these rising stars:
SUSAN HARRINGTON
.
Legally blind with a mild mental disability, Susan is the Christiane Amanpour of this crew. She conducts incisive, coherent interviews, and is known to suffer fools (eg. Jenna Jameson) graciously.
BOBBY BIRD
Bobby has Down's syndrome and a speech disability that makes everything he says sound like he's gargling underwater. He's completely unintelligible. Still, people don't flee his interviews for fear of looking like callous jerks. Bobby is also a pansexual freak. Seriously, if you stay still for too long, he will try to french kiss you.
LARRY PERRY
Larry is of normal intelligence. However, he has severe cerebral palsy which leaves him unable to speak and without control of most of his body except his left arm below the elbow. It's with his left arm, that he wields the microphone while another dude ports Larry's questions around on a chalkboard.
JEREMY VEST
Jeremy is gregarious and preternaturally articulate. He's also a fameho. He turns every interview into an opportunity to pimp his drumming skills, which are justifiably something to brag about. John Stamos is his wingman.
It airs Sunday nights @10:30 on MTV. You can also watch episodes online.

(BTW, this post is a sincere whutup to the show .... as well as a righteous act of vengeance.)
