MANDATORY VIEWING OF THE WEEK
Pam: Girl on the Loose (Series Premiere) -- 10/9c on E!
There’s a lot of bad to be said about E! under the Ryan Seacrest regime, and the network (with the exception of The Soup) is more or less a tabloid set in motion. But give the little dude some credit: He’s at least nabbed some genuine, higher-than-D-list celebs to star in eponymous reality shows. While VH1, for example, enlists guilty-pleasure has-beens like Scott Baio and Bret Michaels, Seacrest’s E! has pulled off Snoop Dogg and Denise Richards--and now Pamela Anderson, quite possibly the biggest star ever to take the reality plunge. Girl on the Loose might disappoint those looking for pure salaciousness, but it will satisfy those content to merely star-watch. In the premiere, Pammy plans an estate sale that basically doubles as a wet dream for fans, featuring items like her first wedding dress and Baywatch swimsuit.
