Need a Supernanny?
By Matt Lemmon
By now you know all about 417-land's penchant for producing reality TV stars. The latest opportunity won't bring you fame and fortune, but it might earn you or a loved one a little more familial harmony.KSPR has announced that a casting session for ABC's prime-time "kids gone wild" program Supernanny—the one where the British lass comes into the home and tries to whip everyone into shape, especially dad—will hold a casting call with producers tomorrow, Saturday, May 17, at Battlefield Mall. The session lasts from noon until 4 p.m. in mall atrium near J.C. Penney's (east entrance, just off Glenstone). The complete press release follows below, but here's the good stuff:
"Producers are searching for families with unique interests and parents who have ordinary and extraordinary circumstances, teen moms, parents with mean girls or bullying boys, culturally diverse parents, and blended families where both sides are seeking help. Producers are looking for families from every type of background, and ready for the opportunity of a lifetime—a visit from America’s number one nanny, Jo Frost!"
No offense, but those of us without kids, or ones already grown, will probably be about a million miles from the mall tomorrow. But good luck!
