BOSTON, Mass. -- An upcoming TV reality show will present viewers with a twist on Bravo TV's popular hit show, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, as it features five typical Southern rednecks performing a makeover on a traditional Northern Yankee.
Each of the five redneck cast members specializes in a particular area of redneck culture.
According to Redneck Eye for the Yankee Guy producer Wade Jefferson, cast member Bubba is the group's expert on beer, Jim Bob knows everything about trucks, Earle is the hunting guru, Dwayne knows country-western music backward and forward and Otis is the show's source for all prison information.
"Yankee men are so far removed from their inner redneck," observes Jefferson, "that they're in serious danger of turning into women. That's where these good ol' boys come in -- helpin' the poor Yankee bring out his God-given, inner redneck."
Future episodes will include teaching that show's Yankee how to:
•Decorate his den with stuffed possums.
•Turn women on by making wild animal noises.
•Open a beer bottle with his teeth.
•Win a tobacco-spitting contest.
•Make his dog behave in the back of his pickup truck.
•Put his car up on blocks on his front lawn.
•Appear on The Jerry Springer Show without being thrown off. Jefferson proudly states, "We sent Bill Clinton an advance copy of the show and he absolutely loved it."
