I agree which is why I mentioned lucky in regards to the producers and idiots in regards to Feldman.

The thing that I most garnered from the Corey and Corey reality show is that they still think they are relevant and have talent and that they are both huge idiots.

When talking about this project in particular they both came across as thinking it would be a huge success and something that the public was wanting to see.
