Um, what the hell is Corkscrewed?

CorkscrewedI just saw this story that a new show is going to debut tonight. It's from the people behind American Idol, and it's titled Corkscrewed: The Wrath of Grapes. It's a reality show set in the world of wine. Yes, a reality show set in the world of wine. Maybe I didn't hear about it because it's on the FOX Reality Channel, and I think I'd rather have nothing but Oxygen and the Style Channel on 24 hours a day than watch that.

The show will follow two executive producers (Nigel Lythgoe and Ken Warwick) as they go through the trials and tribulations of dealing with a new vineyard that they've bought together. The first episode will have cameos from Simon Cowell, Ryan Seacrest, and Randy Jackson, but no Paula Abdul. Maybe she was zoned out busy that day.

Actually, a documentary-style series about the world of wine might be kind of interesting, but since it's on a reality channel and from the makers of American Idol, it's probably going to be more reality show-ish than documentary.

...or maybe they don't let Paula around alcohol anymore.
