'Totally Clueless' in the East Village today



A crew will be filming "Totally Clueless" today on Seventh Street between Avenue A and First Avenue. (And elsewhere? Didn't investigate all that closely) ... It's a new MTV series... that The Wrap described this way:

"Totally Clueless" will follow "Punk'd" into MTV's hidden-camera programming — with the difference being that, in the new offering, people will win cash for figuring out that they are on television. "Our team of improv actors puts people into escalating rounds of uncomfortable situations," the network said of the show. "The sooner they figure out they are on a game show the more money they win."

MTV should come back and film this weekend. They'd never have to hand out any money.

This sounds absolutely nothing like Boiling Points. Totally original programming as one would expect from MTV.
When I first read the name for this show I thought it was a Clueless spinoff and go very excited for a minute.

What if the person being pranked gets fed up and punches out the member of the so-called 'team of improv actors'? Does the prank-ee sill get paid by the prank-ers and will they broadcast the sequence, or will the just wrap up their video equipment in their lame-ass MTV production van and get the fuck out of the neighborhood?

I love "Totally clueless." It's the only thing really funny on MTV. If they don't renew this and bring back stupid Vinny or Jionni, the baby, and the girl with the horrible boob job, I will be really pissed. The series is seriously funny.

Fitting, since most people who are moving or overruning the EV are totally clueless.
