The Downfall of Flavor Flav

Flavor Flav's clock-wearing mug, his gold-encrusted teeth blaring, saved Public Enemy from being too self-righteous. He was the fun that balanced Chuck D's baritone protestations against political corruption and racism.
That was then; this is now. Flavor Flav, desperate for money, stars in The Flavor of Love, a pathetic, low-down piece of crapola reality television show that features a dozen women vying for the hype man's attention.
This is his third show, after making his debut on The Surreal Life a couple of years back.
We see women cry, actually cry, because they might not have the chance to be the one for our man, Flavor Flav, a has-been who is far from handsome and who certainly doesn't have much money. Ah, the things people do for money.
Chuck D, your friend needs help, like now.
