Chris Rock's Brother Has a New Project
Tony Rock by Michael Schwartz/WireImage.com
This fall, audiences can see the
other Rock family talent in his own show: MyNetworkTV's
The Tony Rock Project, a reality-comedy series. Also known as
Chris Rock's younger brother, Tony has appeared in a number of shows and movies, but he's getting center stage with the new gig.
In the
Project,
Tony Rock will conduct man-on-the-street interviews, use hidden cameras and other types of segments to shed some light, Borat-style, on society's quirks, hang-ups and stereotypes. The series comes from MyNetwork vets C to the B (who brought us Flavor Flav's
Under One Roof) and Langley Productions (
Jail,
COPS), and will air Wednesdays at 8:30 pm/ET.
Will the younger Rock keep audiences laughing? Does the format have potential, or sound played-out?
