'Top Hooker' reality show ordered | Inside TV | EW.com
The search for the best hooker in America is coming to cable TV.
A major channel has ordered Top Hooker, an unscripted competition series that puts a diverse group of 10 competitors through a series of “mind-blowing” challenges to determine who is the best in the business — and only one can come out on top to collect a $30,000 prize.
At this point, we should probably mention Top Hooker is on Animal Planet. And it’s about fishing.
In the spirit of popular fishing reality shows Rivers Monsters and Hillbilly Handfishin‘ comes Top Hooker, where the world’s best anglers (including contestant Larysa, above) are pitted against each other for out-of-the-box fishing challenges. The provocatively titled show, sure to catch the eye of channel surfers, will have anglers capturing fish using only their mouths, zipline fishing and catching fish that are nearly invisible to the naked eye
Top Hooker will be hosted by blue-collar comedy veteran Reno Collier and premieres on Animal Planet on Sunday, June 2 at 10 p.m.
Hopefully viewers won’t feel the show’s title is, ahem, bait-and-switch
