KISS TV
BW&BK reports: (assorted boasts from Gene Simmon's) Proud to say we have been 'picked up' (deal made) re a new Gene Simmons reality show for the New Year. Filming starts November.

Am assuming it'll be broadcast same day as shoot.

Meeting with three different buyers (- buyers are Production Studios, who would pay/and or deficit the cost of producing a show, or a network/cable outlet that would pay a 'license fee' - either way, someone writes a check).
