“Adventures in Hollyhood” is just what the title states. Some guys from the hood and their adventures in Hollywood, and we can pretty much assume what kind of interesting concepts that can produce. Needless to say, this show will surpass all of the thoughts that just came to your mind.
“Adventures in Hollyhood” is MTV’s newest reality show that follows rap artist Three 6 Mafia, which consists of Juicy J and DJ Paul, and their entourage traveling from their hometown of Memphis, Tenn. to Hollywood, Calif.
The funny part about the show is they aren’t trying to be funny. They are just being themselves (as any avid Three 6 Mafia listener can tell you.) If you don’t believe me, you can listen to the Outro on every Three 6 Mafia (or Three 6 Mafia affiliated rapeprs) album to get the gist of thatIn the series premiere episode, the stars “drove” a Rolls-Royce from Memphis to their new house in Hollywood, a 24-hour and 16-minute drive according to the directions that they had.
The Academy Award winners arrived in Hollywood looking to bank on their recent success and maximize the opportunities that Hollywood had to offer them, which is the “real” reason for the show.
Three 6 Mafia has been under heavy scrutiny for being sacrilegious but interestingly enough, the two brothers in the mix, Juicy J and Project Pat, are actually preacher’s sons.
Pastor Houston, the father, serves as the groups conscious, as he constantly keeps in touch with Juicy J to make sure that they stay out of trouble. To what avail though is a mystery.
Even though Juicy J is enough entertainment to fuel the show alone, Big Triece, the personal assistant, and Computer, another assistant, also provide comic relief, but of another sort.
Big Triece might have the common sense of an 8-year-old, and as for Computer, well, DJ Paul’s sums it up best.
“He (Computer) knows as much about computers as I knows about the space shuttle.” In other words, they are just long-time friends from Memphis that are along for the free ride and TV exposure, but at their own expense, and I don’t mean that literally.
None-the-less, this “Adventures in Hollyhood” could possibly be one of the funniest shows that I’ve ever seen on MTV.
