TV Land chases actress Fawcett in reality show

MUMBAI: US media conglomerate Viacom has announced that its cable network TV Land will start Chasing Farrah.The reality show follows Hollywood actress Farrah Fawcett, as she goes about her daily life as one of the most recognised stars in the history. Fawcett was one of the original Charlies Angels in the 1970's television show.
 
 

The six episode show kicks off on 23 March. It will give viewers a rare glimpse into what her life is like in and out of the spotlight. Throughout Chasing Farrah, viewers go on a wild ride with the jet-set actress as she travels from Hollywood to Miami to New York to her birthplace of Texas, replete with an entourage of managers, publicists and film crew in
tow.
 
 

Viewers will get a behind-the-scenes look at the actress, who skyrocketed to super-stardom in 1976 courtesy of her role in Charlie's Angels and further cemented her reputation as a sex symbol with the 1977 release of a poster featuring her in a one-piece swimsuit.

 

In the show Fawcett attends the US Open tennis tournament in New York where she caused a stir among such luminaries as Martina Navratilova and Maria Sharapova.

 

TV Land and Nick at Nite president Larry W. Jones said, "So many of our perceptions of Farrah Fawcett are through the tabloids, quick sound bites on the news and her roles in film and television. TV Land wants to take our viewers into the life of Farrah Fawcett to see what she's really about, since so few of us know what it's like to be a recognised Hollywood icon for your entire adult life. Through Chasing Farrah we hope to give our viewers a rare glimpse into her life away both on the red carpet and away from the spotlight."
