Remember "The Superstars"?

ABC does, and apparently they think Terrell Owens would make a good competitor.

Owens in new version of 'Superstars'

Owens will team with Joanna Krupa, a model who was listed in Maxim magazine's 2006 Hot 100 list, when the competition gets under way on June 23 (8 p.m. ET, ABC). The eight teams will compete weekly in events including swimming, biking, running and kayaking. One team will be eliminated each week, leading up to the finals.

The series will run for six weeks.

Other athletes include former major league baseball player Jeff Kent, ex-NBA star Robert Horry, Olympian Bode Miller, former world No. 1 tennis player Jennifer Capriati, WNBA star Lisa Leslie, soccer great Brandi Chastain and freeskier Kristi Leskinen.

They will team with actress and former Miss USA Ali Landry (Kent), actress Estella Warren (Horry), "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" star Paige Hemmis (Miller), former "Baywatch" and "Melrose Place" star David Charvet (Capriati), actor and former North Carolina football player Dan Cortese (Leslie), singer Julio Iglesias Jr. (Chastain), and "Dancing With The Stars" performer Maksim Chmerkovskiy (Leskinen).

I didn't know Dan Cortese played for UNC :sosp:

(honestly, I didn't know he played at all)

I wish Battle of the Network Stars would come back on. Would love to see Hayden in a wet.....uh oh..gotta go.

Would you prefer that, or "Circus of the Stars"? :lol:

Here's Florio's take on it this morning: PFT

Remember “The Superstars.”

That’s what ABC is banking on by teaming up a group of athletes headlined by Buffalo Bills wide receiver Terrell Owens, and various fading or obscure celebrities to compete in a variety of sports such as kayaking, running, biking and swimming, according to the Buffalo News.

The series is set in the Bahamas and will begin airing June 23.

Owens’ involvement coincides with his planned VH1 reality series.

In this TV show, though, Owens will have to share the spotlight with his teammate, model Joanna Krupa. And they’ll be competing against former NBA player Robert Horry, former baseball player Jeff Kent, former soccer player Brandi Chastain and former tennis player Jennifer Capriati, among others.

The celebs include Ali Landry, Estella Warren, David Charvet and Julio Iglesias Jr. Not exactly star-studded, but that probably means more face time for T.O., which is just how he likes it anyway.

Owens and Vick both on reality TV? Ugh :nonod:
