Rob & Big coming to MTV

rob and bigJeff Tremaine, the creator of both Jackass and Wild Boyz, has developed a new reality series for MTV called Rob & Big, which will feature skateboarder Rob Dyrdek and his bodyguard, Christopher "Big Black" Boykin living together in the Hollywood Hills (Anna mentioned the series back in April). The series will debut on November 2, but if you're really excited to see what the show is all about for some reason, you can watch a five-minute sneak peek on MTV October 26. The sneak peek will also be available on MTV.com and on MTV's mobile services. The first episode will also be available through iTunes October 31, with subsequent episodes available through iTunes the Tuesday after they air on MTV.
