The Shaw family is a lot like herpes: nobody likes the fact that they even exist, and yet we can’t get rid of them. You might recognize the above promo video for “Blood, Sweat, and Bling,” the reality show about boxing promoter Gary Shaw that we told you about some months back, but which thankfully seemed to die a quiet death in the alley behind some TV production studio. Well, they didn’t bury this thing deep enough, because the show is reportedly back on, according to rich brat/local idiot Jared Shaw.
Here’s the essential question when it comes to this reality show: will it be so bad it’s good, or so bad that it’s just really bad?
On one hand, shows about rich people whose lives are a mess and whose kids are cringe-inducing jerkoffs have the potential to make the non-wealthy among us feel like maybe we’re not missing so much after all. Yeah, it would be nice to have a Ferrari. But then you look at Gary Shaw arguing with his ingrate son, or sitting around in his Everlast jacket with no shirt on underneath, man boobs swaying ponderously above his belly, and suddenly you think that it isn’t worth it after all.
On the other hand, these people are jackasses. Giving them attention and TV time for being such jackasses is probably not how an effective society should operate.
The good news in all this is that at least the Shaws aren’t involved in MMA anymore. Now they can bring dishonor by association to boxing alone, and let’s be honest, that sport’s reputation is already so tarnished that the Shaws can hardly do much worse. The new lows that $kala might visit upon the rap industry, however, is another story.

After watching that I looked up what his oldest son did to be sent to prison. Apparently he's the biggest piece of shit out of all of them. Guy beat and stabbed to death a six year old boy then went on to beat and rape the boy's mother. Real group of the winners the Shaws are.

I made it to the 3:00 mark that was pretty awful. Seems like they trying to emulate the Sopranos/Ozborns and its so hackish it unbelievable. "On the other hand, these people are jackasses. Giving them attention and TV time for being such jackasses is probably not how an effective society should operate." Yeah I voted for change to.....together we can do it just round up all the jackasses and drop the bomb.

How much PBR and Old Crow do you think it takes Gary Shaw to maintain that gnarly gut?

I wonder how they'll find a way to blame Kimbo after this show fails.

GARY SHAW'S MARRIAGE WILL BE OVER WITH IN NO TIME AFTER THIS. JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE WHO INVITES ALL THE CAMERA'S INTO THEIR HOMES. THEN HE WILL BE BEGGING DANA WHITE FOR A JOB.

The Shaws represent much of what is wrong with America. They fail at life.

Oh please God! Bring this masterpiece to me as soon as possible! When can I watch this and what channel will it be on? That gigantic herb/spermwaste of a son Jared, the crackhead mother, the Tony Sopranno wannabe of a dad? I can see why that fat slob concentrated on work so much. Id concentrate on a fuckin bullet if I had a family like that, I dont care how much money I had.
