Heenes to get their own reality show or full of hot air?

TMZ has learned the Heene family has been pitching a reality show about the wacky family, as one TV source put it, "all over town."

We're told Richard Heene pitched a series to Reality Real, as well as RDF Productions. RDF produces "Wife Swap," on which the family appeared back in March.

We're also told the Heene's have made the rounds at the networks, including TLC. Of course, TLC produced "Jon & Kate Plus 8."

So is balloon boy the ultimate reality show pitch?

I went for a "quick" trip to Ikea yesterday... and spent 4 hours there- missing all of this news story.

I'm lost, but so many of my Facebook friends mentioned it in their status updates.

i love that they made us all panic and follow a hot air balloon for an hour...but they don't deserve the attention.

I wish DJ Khaled got his own show after ONTD thought it was Chris Brown and watched a white car overnight...then it was DJ Khaled...but it was really just a suicidal Pakistani biz owner...NEVER FORGET.

I think they're kind of fucked up, it's seeming more and more likely that they put Falcon up to the stint, and he apparently barfed twice during interviews and slipped up that his hiding out was done because his parents told him it was for a show.


BOOOOO. BOOOOO. BOW TO THE QUEEN OF SLIME

I was watching their Today Show appearance this morning, and I definitely saw one of the kids throw up. If it was Falcon, I'm not sure.
[info]jilicious 16th-Oct-2009 06:35 pm (UTC)
I read on msn.com this morning that Falcon was all "Uhhh mom I don't feel so good" and went to go puke.

[info]seanb814 16th-Oct-2009 06:34 pm (UTC)
I know but they create human traveling flying saucer balloons so, it's fitting

I think you could get a really great psychology thesis about how American society reacts to breaking news just out of the post on this yesterday. Within those three hours there was such clear range of emotions: confusion, humor, fear, celebration.
[info]theoutlawtorn 16th-Oct-2009 06:51 pm (UTC)
I think ONTD itself is worthy of a thesis.
[info]theromansgohome 16th-Oct-2009 06:53 pm (UTC)
ONTD is one of my possible Masters thesis topics...
[info]daydreamrachey 16th-Oct-2009 09:43 pm (UTC)
I've always wanted to do that.
[info]ledgers 16th-Oct-2009 07:16 pm (UTC)
Seriously, though.
[info]hugmeimdirty 16th-Oct-2009 07:25 pm (UTC)
it's all for the lulz though.
[info]jiai1 17th-Oct-2009 01:39 am (UTC)
I'll add that to my senior thesis list for Psych. I'm in my last year.
[info]jasmina12345 16th-Oct-2009 06:33 pm (UTC)

NO




America needs to stop giving reality shows to attention-hungry losers who exploit their own kids.

I agree. It's sick.
[info]poisongrowth 16th-Oct-2009 06:33 pm (UTC)
i didn't even understand the big deal of reporting about for a full fucken hour. seriously, cnn, there's better shit to cover.
[info]ecctv 16th-Oct-2009 06:47 pm (UTC)
well when everyone THOUGHT the kid was in there it was an amazing story to follow

CNN is a joke. They broke into a discussion on the war in Afghanistan with a breaking news alert to inform America that Rush was dropped from a team bid to buy the Rams.
[info]brrylimesublime 16th-Oct-2009 10:43 pm (UTC)
They also continued to blather on about Rush team bid crap all through Anderson Cooper and Larry King.

Rush is stupid wtf. Let's talk about the two damn wars we're still in.
