Apparently Temuera Morrison can't get any real work, so he's doing a silly "reality" series to be shown on TV One at some stage. That's all we need is yet another "reality" series clogging up a timeslot. :(

This brief paragraph was on the end of an article in yesterday's NZ Herald (Friday, 11 January, 2013) about the influx of "bad" New Zealand TV shows into Australia (which does seem a fitting place for it) ...
NZ On Air has given $425,000 of public money to Black Inc Media to produce an eight-part "reality" series called The Life and Times of Temuera Morrison.
There was also a longer article on the back page of Section A (online here). The show will look at "one of Maori's favourite sons as he re-evaluates his acting career, engages in competitive kapa haka, and reveals his evolving relationships with whanau". Image

Of course, it's not the first time he's done a non-acting show. He did do a short-lived interview / talk show a while back, which included a Star Wars / George Lucas story.
