Seriously! What is going on with marketing lately? I thought that marketing was usually directed toward tweens and teens with tons of disposable mommy-and-daddy funding, but now we have the Coreys being trucked out AS WELL AS Scott Baio!

Radar tells us that Scott Baio has reneged on his promise to spare us from watching him on a reality show, and is filming a show for VH1 that basically chronicles how pathetic his life is at 45, which him going around L.A. at the age of 45 and trying to get a date.

Anyone who thinks it’s a great idea to get their kid or teen involved in the entertainment industry should be forced to watch his show, in my opinion. It would make most parents who aren’t Dina Lohan or Joe Simpson think twice about setting their child up for a life of depressing failure, which will then be chronicled on reality television for all the world to see. And mock.

Evidently judging by the success of Paris Hilton as a media darling of whoriness, Scott Baio is shopping around a tell-all book of his own, which allegedly includes his sexual exploits with, well, most of the cast of Baywatch and pretty much any other starlet of the 80s and early 90s, according to Radaronline.

Apparently, no one is really interested in tales of a has-been boinking other has-beens, however, and Baio is having trouble finding a buyer for this work of literature. Maybe he should try having sex with Paris to improve his odds of selling the thing.
