POISON Frontman BRET MICHAELS To Return For Second Season Of 'Rock Of Love'
- Oct. 9, 2007
Over 3.9 million total viewers tuned into the "Rock of Love with Bret Michaels" reunion special this past Sunday night (October 7) to learn that Bret's love match was a mismatch. VH1 will continue to help Bret find his "rose" and announces today that a second season of the record-breaking series will premiere on VH1 in early 2008.
After handing in her VIP pass, Jes, the pink-haired beauty proved she was not fit to handle Bret Michaels' rock-star lifestyle. But the tour continues on and the POISON frontman is searching again for someone to "rock his world." The second season will feature 20 new women pining for Bret's heart.
The women will be tested on their devotion to him and their love and understanding for rock-n-roll. To help narrow the field, Michaels will put these women through various challenges. Those who win these challenges will join Michaels on some wild and exclusive excursions, while those who can't hang like true backstage VIPs will be escorted out.
Sunday night's (October 7) "Rock of Love with Bret Michaels" reunion special earned a 2.6 rating in the key 18-49 demo, +71% above the show's season average and the second highest-rated episode of the series. The reunion special attracted 3.0 million P18-49 viewers and was the #1 non-sports telecast on cable for the week.
The season finale, which aired on Sunday, September 30 averaged 4.1 million viewers in the demo and attracted 5.4 million total viewers. It was also the #1 program on cable for the night, as well as the #1 non-sports program on cable for the week. In addition, the finale ranked as the #3 non- sports telecast on ad-supported cable for the entire year-to-date among P18-49 viewers.
VH1's "Rock of Love with Bret Michaels" is created and executive produced by Mark Cronin and Cris Abrego for Mindless Entertainment and 51 Pictures, who also produce the record-breaking "Flavor of Love", "I Love New York", "Charm School" and "My Fair Brady". Ben Samek and Matt Odgers also serve as a series executive producers for 51 Minds. The production teams' programming launched VH1 into their highest ratings ever and their ratings continue to outperform their previous successes.

is no part of this ongoing search. I would thing he would get enough "attention" on the road(or at home). The only thing going for it is the ongoing train wreck factor.

These shows are always retarded. No one ever ends up together, so that defeats the ENTIRE purpose of the show even if you are into that kind of shit show.

Very entertaining show. I think Heather and her big hair ruled!! And Lacey needs to get it hard!!! hahahahahha!!! 'F' Flavor of Love and that f-ugly ass ZooYork (YAKK!!!) ... and 'F' the Bitch-Hop Lifestyle, It's all about Rock and Roll!!!
Reality television is the downfall of humankind. But, has tought me something about the members of Poison.. Looking from the outside it always seemed that Brett was the cool, down to earth one and CC was the mental case.. However, after seeing them "be themselves" in front of the TV cameras it seems CC is the cool guy and Brett is a self absorbed asshanger that is impressed by anything with a vagina like a 13 year old boy.
Live and learn.
...peace to all who are suffering.

Axl, the brothers from Oasis, Tommy Lee, Lars and Eddie VH all living together for a month with no script, no distractions, and no way out.

some posters on here critize rock star that dave navarro hosted because it was reality tv, but the same ones faithfully watch this heap of garbage. c'mon people...this show is created for mentally challenged sex deprived individuals. rock of love is the worst reality show of all time. those girls need therapy, instead vh1 and bret michaels is exploiting them for the almighty $$$. mentally stable women do not behave in this manner. these women are probably victims of family abuse, abandonment and god knows what else . the media is profiting from it and america is calling it entertainment. karma will be a bitch for america when it comes calling.

COMMENT | So what if the show is just a big ploy to make money... posted by : livingaftermidnight 10/9/2007 5:46:47 PM
it's fuckin' funny as hell and so I'll keep watching it.
...but yeah, everyone saw this coming. Just like the fake "I Love New York" reunion show.

Oh god, who actually watched this fucking show sober?
I watch some of these reality shows for the same reason I watch Marilyn Manson...two words...TRAIN WRECK.
They can be compelling in as much as they are loaded with the entertainment equivalent of a slapstick slip and fall accident. Maybe I'm strange, but public humiliation (when the result of your own stupidity) amuses the hell out of me.
I know that there are a lot of you out there who feel the same way, because the ratings prove it. I could give a rat's ass who Bret Michael's falls in love with, but watching this show, as well as Flaor of Love is hysterical. The only improvment would be if they renamed the show to "Gold Digger Wars".
Now THAT would be truth in advertising!

Hair Club ! He wears the bandana to hide the hair pieces hairline ,when you see hair on top of his head. Most other times, he has a do-rag or a hat.

Poison was NEVER good. I think that there may have been a few moments over their entire career where a part of a song or a riff here and there might have BEGUN to be approaching a good idea, but for the most part, they have repeatedly sucked balls.

I totally applaude the members of Poison for making a 20 year career out of being marginally entertaining musicians whose most important contributions are "Talk Dirty To Me" and all the guys that thought "Man, I bet if I start going to the gym, I could have abs like that". HA HA HA HA
Outside of that? They coasted on virtually NOTHING.

Maybe this time they should do it with C.C. That would be awesome!!!
I liked Rock Of Love, my wife and I watched it together every single week.
Bret Michaels is cool, man he's got the life. I wonder how many of those hot ass chicks he nailed during the filming of the show.

What a shock it didn't work out. how perfect so they can have another season of the show just like the shit New York and Flavor stuff...

This was rigged. All VH1 reality shows are rigged. There's nothing real about it.
Fuck this crap.
COMMENT | oops posted by : johnnyparks 10/9/2007 11:28:16 PM
the producers should know better ... when you shoot the post interviews.. the girls need to be wearing different clothes.... Ah and all these clowns think wrestling is fake... HA where did you think reality TV learnt this... Still the scripting for the redhead was brilliant... one mistake though producers.. you have to keep the heel all the way to the end like you did on your Flavor Flav show... oh well live and learn.. season 2 will have a much improved screenplay..

I think he just has a huge forehead. That's why he always wears the bandana.
