Basketball Meets Reality TV

Doug Christie and Family expected to star in Reality Show featured on VH1

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Sacramento Bee:</div><div class="quote_post">The couple's marriage may be unique in the world of professional sports in that Jackie is rarely far from her well-traveled husband's side, even during a brawl with the rival Los Angeles Lakers.

The Christies say they plan to reveal considerably more about their relationship, family and way of life in a proposed reality television show on pop music network VH1. A deal between the Christies and the network is not final, but talks are progressing, both sides confirmed.</div>

This should be extremely interesting, it's a very unique project, I'm just glad to see Sacramento and basketball in general will get some more national exposure towards a new audience.

 

DC and Wife to Star in Reality TV Show

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Such constant contact between a male professional athlete and his wife or companion is extremely rare, and therein lies the curiosity, fascination, and even disdain and ridicule by others regarding the Christies' relationship.

Jackie Christie said she hopes to change misperceptions through the TV show. "I think it was more or less because we can get a positive message out there," she said. "There has been a lot of negative publicity and a lot of misperceptions and misunderstandings about our relationship.</div>

I don't know why I find this so hilarious, but I can't stop laughing. I will definitely be watching this show.

EDIT- Weird. We created the exact same thread at the exact same time. I merged mine into yours.

 

Ok...Id rather see a documental about Mike Bibby cutting his fingernails at the game.

 

This has been talked about for quite a while now.It'd be interstring to see this happen.I Don't know if i'd watch this or not,but it is good to know that people wanna see how the Kings organzation spotlighted in this kind of forum.

 

I might be alone on this one but, I don't want to know anything about DC's homelife. It's bad enough that he does that stupid signal 98 times a game...

 

I think Jackie just signed the deal to get extra cameras on Doug when she is not around to make sure he doesn't talk to any other women. What ever happened to that lawsuit with the ex King employee?

 

Very interesting. It'll just make me laugh even more to how much more of a nut his wife is.

 

while I personally wont really watch it (I hate reality TV shows) I dont really see why people freak out at how they handle their relationship... it works for them and really thats all that matters...

 

I Guess since Christie's been dealt to the Magic,i guess none of us Kings fan's are intrestred in the show or are we???

 

I'm still interested in seeing what kind of things go on between him and his wifey. The show will be even better set in Orlando, because there are probably more scantily clad attractive women to hit on Doug. We'll see how whipped he really is.

I'm still curious myself on what's up with Doug.It won't be the same,but still,it'll be fun to see his wife's reaction on stuff

 

i would love to see how Doug and his wife are when theyre at home. this should be a fun show to watch considering it has Mrs. Christie in it *cracks whip*.
