I heard about this new show coming to CMT called 'Bayou Billionaires', but didn't know much more than it's a show about people that came into a LARGE sum of money, and they're very back woods kinda folk. Then I saw the promo for it for the first time today. This is either going to be a disaster, or the best show ever!!!

The family that the show is based around is from Shreveport. Just a mere 3 hours from here. CMT describes the show as:

"In a modern day rags to riches story, Bayou Billionaires tells the story of the Dowdens of Shreveport, La. -- a hardworking family of modest means who recently discovered their home sits on the fourth largest deposit of natural gas in the United States. After years of pinching pennies and balancing budgets, the over-the-top Dowdens are ready to enjoy the finer things in life, sparing no expense. Bayou Billionaires follows Gerald and Kitten and the rest of their family as they experience the perks of belonging to a brand new tax bracket."

And now, watch the promo for the show!

My favorite part is mixed between the grandfather being a PLAYA and the daughter's boyfriend! What's his name? Kitten says, "I call him Carl. Some people call him Albert." and cut to...whatever his name is to say, "Really depends on what part of the country I'm in, some people call me Jimmy"

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you think this is going to be a good show? Bad show? Great show?
