international breakerz league

This seems to be the day for TV litigation. First we told you about that lawsuit brought by the creator of 'MacGyver' to stop the release of the new 'MacGruber' film, and now we have a lawsuit brought against 'American Idol' judge Randy Jackson.

It's not about the hit FOX show, though, it's about MTV's 'America's Best Dance Crew.' A man says that Jackson and MTV stole the idea for the show from him. He says that he pitched the show, which had the unfortunate name of 'International Breakerz League,' back in 2004 and got an "implied contract" from MTV. Nothing happened with that show and then Jackson's dance show premiered in 2008. The man is suing both Jackson and MTV for $2,000,000.

These lawsuits hardly ever work out for the plaintiff, do they? A lot of times we never even hear what the result of the lawsuits are.
