TV: ‘Greatest American Dog’ Might Not Bite

July 3rd, 2008 Written by: Kendra· 1 Comment

greatestamericandogKP070308My favorite part of America’s Funniest Home Videos is always the dog stuff. I’ve also, on more than one occasion, found myself crashed out on the couch watching some type of dog competition. I’ll admit that this is embarrassing and slightly disturbing but I’ve just decided to roll with it. The natural progression of my dog-TV habit seems to be the new show on CBS, The Greatest American Dog. I just might be Tivo-ing this thing. Maybe you should too.

Here’s how the website describes this bundle of awesomeness:

Twelve extraordinary teams of dogs and owners from across the nation from “pageant dogs” to those simply trained at home, will live together and compete against each other in challenges that put the owners’ ability to train their dogs to the test. Each week, the judges will eliminate one dog and their owner. The last remaining team will walk away with a $250,000 cash prize and the title of GREATEST AMERICAN DOG.

Distinguished canine critics Wendy Diamond, Allan Reznik and Victoria Stilwell are the three judges with Jarod Miller hosting.

 

Well, there you go. I love that the dogs have to “live together.” What a nightmare. Someone is so going to step in dog poo. Anyhoo, I figure this show is a pretty safe bet. How bad could it be? It’ll be like any of those stupid talent competitions only the contestants are small and fuzzy and therefore superior to pathetic human competitors on other shows. Even if they suck, they’ll still be cute. Plus, I’m so sick of that Cesar Milan dude. Maybe this will fill the doggy void.
