				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://pcm-tv.com/news/?attachment_id=18624" rel="attachment wp-att-18624"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-18624" alt="Orange CC" src="http://pcm-tv.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Orange-CC.jpg" width="450" height="290" /></a></p>
<p>(CMT) The world’s most renowned custom motorcycle manufacturer and its fearless leader return to television in ORANGE COUNTY CHOPPERS, a new eight-episode series produced by Pilgrim Studios and premiering on CMT later this year. With OCC revitalized in killer style, the show follows Paul Teutul Sr. (“Senior”) and his team as they reach new extremes resulting in mind-blowing bikes and, of course, state-of-the-art drama. Production is slated to begin this Summer.</p>
<p>&#8220;We’re thrilled to be back on television doing what we do best: building outrageous custom motorcycles,&#8221; said Teutul, founder of Orange County Choppers. &#8220;We have a lot of very cool projects coming up and can&#8217;t wait to deliver on this new partnership with CMT and Pilgrim.&#8221;</p>
<p>Added Pilgrim Studios’ Craig Piligian, “Pilgrim’s relationship with Paul Sr. goes back more than a decade, and we’ve seen his creative and mechanical genius first-hand. We’re so glad to be working with him again and look forward to bringing OCC&#8217;s unique brand of excitement and inspiration to CMT viewers.”</p>
<p>In each hour-long episode of ORANGE COUNTY CHOPPERS, viewers get to see a completely different side of the OCC crew. In addition to following the build process, they also watch the guys wreak havoc on the grounds, pull insane pranks and get into explosive blowouts. Some fan favorites return along with plenty of fresh faces.</p>
<p>Known for his mustache, tattooed biceps and sleeveless tees, Senior has been at the helm of OCC for over ten years. In the ‘70s, he was running a steel manufacturing business when he started building motorcycles as a hobby. In 1999, Senior turned his passion project into a fabrication shop he called Orange Country Choppers. Today, the company that began as a side operation has become a world-famous empire. Senior can also add author to his repertoire; in 2010 he published The Ride of a Lifetime: Doing Business the Orange County Choppers Way, a guide to business success that also chronicles his nearly 40 years of experience in the business world.</p>
<p>ORANGE COUNTY CHOPPERS is executive produced by Pilgrim Studios&#8217; Craig Piligian and Sam Korkis, and CMT’s Jayson Dinsmore, Joe Livecchi and Julia Silverton.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(Discovery) Discovery Channel reveals new secrets behind &#8220;D-Day&#8221; &#8211; the day that changed the course of the 20th Century. On June 6, 1944, the Allies&#8217; invasion of the Nazi-occupied France transformed the outcome of World War II; however, did you know &#8220;3D&#8221; photography was the key to &#8220;D-Day&#8217;s&#8221; success? This futuristic technology mapped every inch of the Nazi defenses, allowing the Allies to execute the greatest invasion in history. The hour-long special, &#8220;D-Day in 3D,&#8221; premieres Sunday, May 26th at 10 PM ET/PT.</p>
<p>The U.S., along with its British and Canadian allies, faced a major challenge &#8211; the Nazis heavily fortified the entire Northern European coastline with numerous trenches, bunkers and high-powered weapons. The Allies had to find a weakness. They came up with a creative solution &#8211; 3D aerial photography. Spy planes carried two synchronized cameras, taking side-by-side photographs, which were then combined to create a three-dimensional map of the Nazi defenses. After two years of collecting data, these 3D photos showed the Allies Normandy was the best place to take down the Nazis. The 3D photos helped the Allies create daring missions and overcome the &#8220;devil&#8217;s garden&#8221; &#8211; full of landmines, blockades and steel fences &#8211; on the beaches of Normandy. Watch as World War II veterans recall that unforgettable day and military experts discuss how &#8220;3D&#8221; photography was the vital tool that brought the Allies to victory.</p>
<p>&#8220;D-Day in 3D&#8221; premieres Sunday, May 26th at 10 PM ET/PT.</p>
<p>&#8220;D-Day in 3D&#8221; is a Discovery Channel/BBC co-production. For BBC, Eamon Hardy is executive producer; Jeremy Hall is series producer. For Discovery Channel, John Cavanagh is executive producer with Katy Jones-Garrity as coordinating producer. Christine Weber is vice president of production and Andrew Jackson is executive vice president of production.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><del></del>(PCM) Former MTV Teen Mom/ porn star Farrah Abraham will be back on basic cable with a new reality TV show according to E! Online.</p>
<p><a href="http://pcm-tv.com/news/2013/05/reality-momporn-star-farrah-abraham-returniung-to-reality-tv/farrah/" rel="attachment wp-att-18701"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-18701" alt="Farrah" src="http://pcm-tv.com/news/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Farrah.jpg" width="200" height="394" /></a>The mother of 3-year-old Sophia Laurent Abraham, who gained fame on the popular MTV docu-series &#8220;Teen Mom&#8221; alongside three other young mothers, is going solo this time announced on Twitter (<a href="https://twitter.com/F1abraham">@F1abrahamthat</a>) she made a deal with Spinboi films.</p>
<p>The reality star/fame whore had a &#8216;sex tape&#8217; come out last moth, that she initally claimed was private, but as her porn co-star James Deen explained:&#8217;I think what happened is that [Vivid Entertainment] was going to pass it off as a sex tape and somebody saw us coming out of a building together and people asked me what&#8217;s going on.</p>
<p>&#8216;So I was like, &#8220;We&#8217;re making a porno!&#8221;&#8216;<br />
The New York-based production company  also took to their <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Spinboi-Films/179316865464045" target="_blank">Facebook</a> page to confirm the news saying, &#8220;MAJOR NEWS!! Spinboi Films  has signed &#8216;Teen Mom&#8217; Farrah Abraham to develop a new reality docu-soap! TV magic coming soon!&#8221;</p>
<p>The new show will follow the 22-year-old mom as she deals with growing up and raising her young daughter, but it still needs to be picked up by a network before it will be seen on TV.</p>
<p>What network would be interested? Who would want to watch this planned train wreck?</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s the perfect recipe for a night cap: one part hungry bar-goers, two parts finger-lickin&#8217; food, a dash of great everyday cooks, with a Golden Fry Basket to garnish. It all adds up to a mouth-watering plateful of Destination America&#8217;s newest competition series, LAST CALL FOOD BRAWL, hosted by Adam Gertler, a runner-up for Next Food Network Star and all-around food enthusiast.</p>
<p>Each episode visits a different American city to challenge four cooks, hailing from 24-hour diners to mom and pop eateries, in a cook-off to determine who will be crowned the king or queen of late night bites. The food brawls attract a raucous audience hungry for munchies that are salty and sweet, like deep fried bacon chili cheeseburger and peanut butter s&#8217;more french toast. LAST CALL FOOD BRAWL heads to some of the biggest late night cities in the U.S. to indulge in each town&#8217;s local flavor, including New Orleans, Austin, Memphis, Nashville and Atlanta. Each week, only one contestant will win the coveted Golden Fry Basket!</p>
<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s nothing better than hanging out with friends and wishing the night would never end&#8230;then keeping the fun going at your favorite late night food stop for a gooey grilled cheese, and maybe a side of disco fries.&#8221; said, Marc Etkind, SVP of Content Strategy for Destination America. &#8220;With LAST CALL FOOD BRAWL, our intrepid host Adam Gertler is on a mission to find talented everyday deep fry warriors in the most fun-filled cities to serve up the best in late night and comfort food &#8211;taken to epic proportions.&#8221;</p>
<p>The line-up of episodes for LAST CALL FOOD BRAWL is as follows:</p>
<p>New Orleans: Po&#8217; BOYS AND BURGERS Premieres Monday, June 10 at 10 PM E/P<br />
Adam makes his way to the Big Easy where he&#8217;s gathered four of the Crescent City&#8217;s best late night cooks: the po&#8217;boy king; the self-made BBQ master; the kitchen diva, and the easy-going family man. Round one will have each contestant battling it out in a &#8220;Po&#8217;boy Insanos&#8221; challenge, which will be followed by a mind-blowing, epic Burger Challenge.</p>
<p>AUSTIN: TACOS AND BURRITOS Premieres Monday, June 17 at 10 PM E/P<br />
In the Lone Star State capitol of Austin, Texas, the queen of fried chicken; a young and ambitious food truck owner; a trained culinary chef and a lovable teddy bear from a 24 hour diner are ready to battle for the Golden Fry Basket. They will square off for the first round challenge, &#8220;Tacos Insanos,&#8221; making the most over-the-top tacos the city has ever seen. And the main challenge will have the chefs creating an epic Tex-Mex dish befitting the state where everything&#8217;s bigger.</p>
<p>MEMPHIS: RIBS AND NACHOS Premieres Monday, June 24 at 10 PM E/P<br />
It&#8217;s the place that one of late night food&#8217;s biggest fans, Elvis Presley, called home&#8230; Memphis, Tennessee. And this week&#8217;s line up of competitors features a veteran pit master/restaurant owner; the football player turned late night chef; the underdog who worked his way up the line; and the young hot shot with plenty of attitude. The first round has them making cheesy, piled-high nachos that live up to the &#8220;Insanos&#8221; challenge, while the final and main challenge will see who can take the classic Memphis favorite &#8211;BBQ &#8211; and blow away the judges with their creation.</p>
<p>Atlanta: WINGS AND BAR BITES Premieres Monday, July 1 at 10 PM E/P<br />
In the Big Peach, four of Hotlanta&#8217;s best late night cooks; the ex-rebel, the college dropout turned cook; the military, soul food master; the high school dropout, rising star chef; and the ex-criminal justice cadet turned chef are each tasked with making the crispiest, most mouthwatering fried chicken dishes imaginable, followed by a bar food challenge for the ages.</p>
<p>NASHVILLE: HOT WINGS AND QUESO Premieres Monday, July 8 at 10 PM E/P<br />
Music City, USA features a young buck and Nashville&#8217;s &#8220;hot chicken&#8221; master; the granddaddy of the city&#8217;s late night food scene; a trained culinary chef; and a wild, bar food specialist. The first round is a &#8220;Nashville Hot Chicken&#8221; inspired &#8220;Wings Insanos,&#8221; while the final challenge will see who can create the ooziest, creamiest, deep fried dish featuring the king of all late night ingredients&#8230; cheese.</p>
<p>LAST CALL FOOD BRAWL is produced by Jane Street with Donna MacLetchie &amp; Linda Lea serving as executive producers. For Destination America, Sara Helman and Fay Yu are executive producers, Sara Kozak is senior vice president of production, Marc Etkind is senior vice president of content strategy, and Henry Schleiff is president and general manager.</p>

Behind every great man in history is another great man who just missed his chance at the spotlight. Larry Doby stops by the studio to remind America—and especially Kamau—why he shouldn&#8217;t be forgotten during the &#8220;42&#8243; hype.</p>

<p>Totally Biased: Kamau Talks to Aisha Tyler<br />
If you are watching television, there&#8217;s a 46% chance the show features this week&#8217;s guest: the incomparable Aisha Tyler. Lana Kane herself stops by Totally Biased to discuss her new book &#8220;Self Inflicted Wounds&#8221; and her many jobs. New favorite guest? Yuuup.</p>

<p>Totally Biased: “Scandal” Starring Barry Washington<br />
With news that the IRS is under investigation for targeting the Obama administration&#8217;s political enemies, Fitzgerald Grant isn&#8217;t the only sitting president embroiled in scandal. If the story were any more dramatic, we&#8217;d swear it was written by Shonda Rhimes.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(USA) LOVE IS DEAD is a single-camera comedy pilot set at a unique company that specializes in breaking-up romantic relationships &#8212; rationally, compassionately, thoroughly &#8212; on behalf of those who are willing to pay to not be around when it happens.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(Smithsonian) Commemorating the passing of music legend Ray Manzarek, keyboardist for The Doors, Smithsonian Channel will air encore presentations of THE DOORS: MR. MOJO RISIN’ &#8211; THE STORY OF L.A. WOMAN throughout the next week. One of the most influential rock bands of the 1960s, the Los Angeles group The Doors personified the turbulent era in America at the time with its raw form of rhythm-and-blues-inspired rock and its charismatic, poetic and unpredictable front man Jim Morrison.</p>
<p>THE DOORS: MR. MOJO RISIN’ &#8211; THE STORY OF L.A. WOMAN will air on:</p>
<p>Thursday, May 23 at 8pm and 11pm ET/PT</p>
<p>Sunday, May 26 at 10pm and 1am ET/PT</p>
<p>Tuesday, May 28 at 9pm and 12am ET/PT</p>
<p>The one-hour documentary is an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at the making of what would be the iconic rock band’s final album together. Released in 1971, L.A. Woman represented a return to the band’s roots. Considered one of the group’s finest achievements, the album reached #9 on the Billboard Chart and yielded several popular hits, including two Top 20 singles—“Love Her Madly&#8221; and &#8220;Riders On The Storm&#8221;—and the popular classic “L.A. Woman,” lauded as a masterful composition and centerpiece of the album. The LP went on to be one of The Doors’ best-selling studio albums.</p>
<p>Exclusive interviews with Manzarek, drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robby Krieger give viewers candid new insights into the band and its creative arc.</p>
<p>The film also taps Elektra Records founder Jac Holzman, Bill Siddons, the band’s manager at the time, as well as some of the group’s closest colleagues and collaborators and other industry insiders, who make trenchant observations on the making of the final album. Woven throughout the narrative are exclusive performances and studio sessions, archival footage, gritty L.A. scenes and other compelling visuals. Commentary by producer Bruce Botnick and an examination of the original multi-track master recordings help to deconstruct the music—from the first song, which beckons listeners to “get loose” (“The Changeling”), to “L.A. Woman,” the noir anthem to the City of Angels, the song that introduces Mr. Mojo Risin’—the character who emerges by scrambling the letters in Jim Morrison’s name. Together, these elements help to tell a fascinating story of the landmark record by one of rock history’s most influential and infamous groups.</p>
<p>THE DOORS: MR. MOJO RISIN’ &#8211; THE STORY OF L.A. WOMAN was produced by Jeffrey Jampol for Eagle Rock Entertainment. Executive Producers for Smithsonian Channel are David Royle and Charles Poe.</p>

<p>(Discovery) Discovery channel introduces the Cutter&#8217;s &#8211; a blue collar, Midwestern family determined to keep their oil company alive amidst Ohio&#8217;s aggressive oil boom in the new series BLOOD AND OIL. Running on blood, sweat, tears and pure instinct, in this real life David vs. Goliath struggle to keep their business and family together, the Cutter&#8217;s will do whatever it takes to keep the Cutter Oil Company afloat as they take on big oil in this race for black gold.</p>
<p>Founded by Charles &#8220;Chuck&#8221; and Beth Cutter, Cutter Oil Company consists of their sons CJ, Josh and Shawn, daughter Kristin and her husband, Ray Anthony. Once a thriving family operated oil business, Cutter Oil was suddenly overcome by the recent and untimely death of the company&#8217;s patriarch, Chuck. As the family struggled with his loss, an oil boom erupted in Ohio, forcing the family to push back in an effort to carry on their father&#8217;s legacy and make Cutter Oil successful.</p>
<p>After discovering that big oil corporations have snatched up drilling rights all over their state, the Cutters are faced with limited options for drilling territory. Determined to uphold his father&#8217;s legacy, CJ is forced to make a risky and controversial decision to wildcat drill on their own property and not all the family members agree. A high-risk business with even higher stakes, running the family oil drilling business is nothing short of dramatic.</p>
<p>Struggling to hold the family together, can CJ Cutter deliver on his promise to keep their company going or will he lose it all in this high stakes gamble to save everything his father built? Will this hard working family come together to save their business or will the stress and pressure tear them apart? Discovery channel follows this hard working, all-American family that is built on tough love and dedication as they do whatever it takes to stake their claim in the heart of the biggest oil boom of the century.</p>
<p>Premieres Tuesday, June 18 at 10 PM ET/PT</p>
<p>BLOOD AND OIL is produced for Discovery Channel by PSG Motion Pictures. For PSG Motion Pictures, Executive Producer is Brian Jones. For Discovery Channel, Executive Producer is David Pritikin.</p>

The FCC had first given the public until May 20 to weigh in on the controversial issue, but that deadline was recently extended to June 19.</p>
<p><strong>From the 1978 Profanity Court Case:</strong></p>
<p><em>&#8220;A satiric humorist named George Carlin recorded a 12-minute monologue entitled &#8220;Filthy Words&#8221; before a live audience in a California theater. He began by referring to his thoughts about &#8220;the words you couldn&#8217;t say on the public, ah, airwaves, um, the ones you definitely wouldn&#8217;t say, ever.&#8221; He proceeded to list those words and repeat them over and over again in a variety of colloquialisms. The transcript of the recording, which is appended to this opinion, indicates frequent laughter from the audience.</p>
<p>At about 2 o&#8217;clock in the afternoon on Tuesday, October 30, 1973, a New York radio station, owned by respondent Pacifica Foundation, broadcast the &#8220;Filthy Words&#8221; monologue. A few weeks later a man, who stated that he had heard the broadcast while driving with his young son, wrote a letter complaining to the Commission. He stated that, although he could perhaps understand the &#8220;record&#8217;s being sold for private use, I certainly cannot understand the broadcast of same over the air that, supposedly, you control.&#8221;</em>  (read all about the 1978 court case <a href="http://www2.bloomberglaw.com/public/desktop/document/FCC_v_Pacifica_Foundation_438_US_726_98_S_Ct_3026_57_L_Ed_2d_1073" target="_blank">here</a>)</p>
<p>Those seven words were something like: poo, weewee, the nasty, hoo-ha, lollipop licker, mommy lover and tits. Ironically, one of those words is apparently perfectly fine today. </p>
<p>There are many people who think that there is no need to &#8220;sex up&#8221; what is called &#8216;the family hour&#8217;, pretty much anything before 9:00 PM. </p>
<p><em>“Today’s television programming already goes well beyond the content parameters most parents find acceptable. No parent, after watching a program with their children says, ‘you know, that sure would have been a better program if they’d only thrown some nudity and profanity in there,’” said Bryan Fischer, director of issues analysis at the American Family Association. “The pressure is coming from the broadcast networks, who don’t want to be accountable to anyone for content. But the airwaves are owned by the American people, and the FCC is supposed to be a responsible steward of the airwaves for their true owners.”</em></p>
<p>We&#8217;ve come a long way since Maude first said &#8220;son of a bitch&#8221; on CBS, back in 1974.</p>
<p>Is there too much censorship? Is there enough? Where should the line be drawn, and should there even be a line? Many parents are concerned about the content, language and even nudity in a lot of cable television, both basic and premium. On one hand, it may force more parents to be aware of what their children are watching on television, on the other hand, it may force even more parents to turn off the set.</p>
<p><em>“There’s an enormous amount of TV content that parents are going to find problematic, offensive or even harmful to their children. The broadcast indecency law is only meant to deal with the worst of the worst TV and radio content to begin with and now the FCC says it doesn’t even want to deal with that,” said Dan Isett, director of public policy for the Parents Television Council.</p>
<p>“It would be grossly irresponsible for the FCC to allow this. If the FCC drops the standard, the networks will give us all the profanity and nudity they think they can get away with, and they’d just keep pushing the envelope,” Fischer added.</em></p>
<p>Many families enjoy television shows together; in this fast paced world, that is often &#8216;family time.&#8217; In our house, channels like MTV were banned until our kids were teenagers &#8211; are we facing a time when many children will never see a television show until they are &#8216;old enough?&#8217; </p>
<p>Leaving the &#8216;family hour&#8217; in place leaves plenty of room for content that won&#8217;t embarrass parents or create misconceptions and too-early lessons about the world for children. Keeping that period family-friendly on the big networks and even basic cable isn&#8217;t hurting anyone, but maybe that&#8217;s not the goal of the change.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(USA) PLAYING HOUSE is a single-camera buddy comedy about what happens when two best friends come back together, just when they need each other most. The original half-hour series is inspired by the ultra-close friendship between Jessica St. Clair (&#8220;Best Friends Forever&#8221;) and Lennon Parham (&#8220;Best Friends Forever&#8221;). In PLAYING HOUSE, when mother to-be Maggie (Parham) asks her single and career-driven best friend Emma (St. Clair) to return home from her job overseas to attend her baby shower, she has no idea what&#8217;s truly in store. Parham and St. Clair co-wrote the presentation and will executive produce the series along with Scot Armstrong (&#8220;The Hangover: Part II&#8221;) and Ravi Nandan (&#8220;Animal Practice&#8221;) of American Work. The series is from Universal Cable Productions and American Work.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(USA) From the distinct comedic point of view of Denis Leary (&#8220;Rescue Me&#8221;) and Bob Fisher (&#8220;Wedding Crashers&#8221;), SIRENS follows three of Chicago&#8217;s best EMTs whose sometimes silly, self-righteous and even self-destructive personalities make them unqualified for sustaining relationships, friendships and most occupations. They are, however, uniquely qualified for saving anyone who winds up in their ambulance. Based on a UK format, SIRENS stars Michael Mosley (&#8220;Pan Am&#8221;), Kevin Daniels (&#8220;Modern Family&#8221;), Jessica McNamee (&#8220;The Vow&#8221;) and Kevin Bigley (&#8220;Game Change&#8221;). Leary and Fisher co-wrote the pilot and both executive produce the series. Jim Serpico (&#8220;Rescue Me&#8221;) of Apostle, and Hal Vogel, David Aukin (&#8220;Hyde Park on Hudson&#8221;), and David Leach of Daybreak Pictures also executive produce. Filmed on location in Chicago, the series is from Apostle and Fox Television Studios, in conjunction with Daybreak Pictures.</p>

<p>McFarlane&#8217;s Family Guy, also on Fox, have had a friendly, competitive rivalry for years.</p>
<p>Seth plays Ben, a smooth operator that Marge accidentally met on a website for cheating spouses.</p>
<p>“We thought we had a great part that he’d be perfect for, and it would be great to have him on our show, so it worked out just right,” Simpsons executive producer Al Jean told Entertainment Weekly regarding the casting of MacFarlane, noting: “There’s been a little rivalry. We’re both humor shows and we make jokes, but it’s always been friendly.”</p>
<p>Lisa, who plays Ben&#8217;s wife in the episode, has also lost over 100 pounds in real life, and is proud of her new body: “I’ve lost a total of 106 pounds,” Lampanelli told In Touch magazine. “I feel like I’ve reached the weight I’m supposed to be. I’m officially a skinny b*tch!”</p>
<p>Meanwhile, the male characters embark on a quest to Iceland, Carl&#8217;s homeland.</p>
<p>The Simpsons finale airs on FOX, May 19th.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(PCM) More details will be announced soon, but we just got the official news from FOX &#8211; 24 will be returning with Kiefer Sutherland reprising his role as Jack Bauer.</p>
<p>Sutherland&#8217;s most recent TV venture, Touch, was recently cancelled, and talks to make a movie with the Jack Bauer never panned out. Given the fast-paced format, it is probably best suited as a 12-part mini-series instead of a two and a half hour film.</p>
<p>The show was last seen in 2010, after an eight-season run. </p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>(PCM) The video making the rounds (below, but will probably disappear soon) is an amateur edit Family Guy episode &#8220;Turban Cowboy,&#8221; shown on FOX on March 17, ended with a scene depicting Peter Griffin accidentally blowing up a bridge by dialing a terrorist&#8217;s cell phone. But in the manipulated video making the rounds online, the cell phone scene is placed immediately after an unrelated moment in the episode when broadcaster Bob Costas, playing himself, asks Peter how he won the Boston Marathon.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><iframe width="475" height="267" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/H5U5LiHnutw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen><a href="http://www.youtube.com/embed/H5U5LiHnutw" target="_blank">Video Here</a></iframe></p>
<p>Aside from the confusion prompted in people unaware that the clip is a hoax, it&#8217;s drawn criticism from those involved with the show Seth McFarlane announced on his <a href="http://twitter.com/SethMacFarlane/status/324224774421217282" target="_blank">twitter</a>: &#8220;The edited Family Guy clip currently circulating is abhorrent. The event was a crime and a tragedy, and my thoughts are with the victims.&#8221;</p>

She has starred in her own animal-themed series &#8220;Bindi: The Jungle Girl,&#8221; as well as the movie &#8220;Free Willy: Escape from Pirate&#8217;s Cove.&#8221; Her father, Steve Irwin, at age 44, died in 2006, killed by a stingray.</p>
<p>&#8220;With &#8216;Bindi&#8217;s Bootcamp,&#8217; we wanted to create a show that would test kids&#8217; mental prowess, endurance and inner strength, all while inspiring them to respect nature and conservation,&#8221; Sander Schwartz, president of FremantleMedia Kids &amp; Family Entertainment, said in a statement Monday. &#8220;Starz Kids &amp; Family [channel] is dedicated to bringing unique and rich shows to families across America, and they will be the perfect home for this incredible wildlife adventure.&#8221;</p>
<p>Shot on location at the Irwin family&#8217;s Australia Zoo, &#8220;Bindi&#8217;s Bootcamp&#8221; originally premiered in July 2012 on Network ABC3 in Australia.</p>

<p>Wilkinson climbed down from the diving board&#8217;s 23-foot platform on Tuesday&#8217;s episode and announced, tearfully,she was leaving the show because of her fear of heights. She scored a zero, saving low-scoring Kareem Abdul-Jabbar from elimination.</p>
<p>&#8220;One thing I don&#8217;t do is quit. This is the first time in my life I&#8217;ve quit something. This will haunt me for the rest of my life,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>To her fans she said via twitter: &#8220;Thank u to all those who supported me last night. Means a lot you stuck by my side. Today&#8217;s a new day and I&#8217;m still proud. #Shutuphaters&#8221;</p>
