The second season of Jesse Ventura's Conspiracy Theory debuts tonight on TruTV. Here is the promotional blurb and preview trailer. "Jesse storms Congress to find out if the government is conducting bio-warfare experiments at the mysterious Plum Island Animal Research Center off the coast of Long Island. The center began as a bio-warfare lab run by former Nazi scientists, and it has been blamed for spreading diseases and viruses throughout the mainland, including African swine flu and Lyme disease."
Wrestlicious creator Jay Vargas is set to be profiled on the 10/21 episode of How The Lottery Changed My Life on TLC. The episode was filmed last summer and will feature Wrestlicious talent including Felony (Rain), Lunch Lady Gert (Lexi Fyfe), Emo Leigh (Leva Bates) Charlotte the Southern Belle (Amber O'Neal) and Rhonda The BeBop.
The most recent episode of Wrestlicious has still not aired on MavTV. Word is that MavTV was unhappy with the production and lighting of the episode which was filmed at a house show in Minnesota and not a studio.
MTV2 has had some talks with Wrestlicious as well as at least one other female-based promotion.
