CBS dumped Armed & Famous this week after airing four episodes, but now it's going where it belongs: VH1. The 'reality' series stars has-been and pseudo-celebrities like Jack Osbourne, Wee Man, La Toya Jackson, Erik Estrada and Trish Stratus. They all become cadets and go out on the road with real cops in Muncie, Indiana (which commenters tell me isn't that small of a town after all).VH1 will air a marathon of Armed & Famous on Saturday, topped off with a new episode (#5) at 9 pm. VH1 says it doesn't actually have episodes 6 & 7 but it will air them if the producers get them finished. And the cable network is not ruling out a second season of the series.

Yes, Vh1 is a much more appropriate network for Armed & Famous - That or TV Land.

I think that CBS lost a great show to a retarded one American Idol is stupid and I think that its sad that a show that potrays a positive side of hollywood actors loses out to a show that bashes people for attempting to sing. Can you say done to DEATH.

those celebs were making a bigger difference than a police officer could. By sharing their negitive experiences someone experiencing the same thing is more likly to actualy REALY think about it.

I really enjoyed the show. It was refreshingly different. Unfortunateley I don't know if it is showing on VH1 or not since I live in Canada and am unable to get that channel. If it is running I hope it does well. I think it deserves a chance.
