New Brothel Reality Show Coming To HDNet

post from TV on HuffingtonPost.com on 29 April 2012 05:35:51 PM. © TV on HuffingtonPost.com

"Mustang Ranch: Labor of Love," a new reality show about a legal brothel, is coming to HDNet.

The new series about the first and oldest legal brothel in America debuts Thurs., May 10.

?We are beyond excited to open the doors of the Mustang Ranch to HDNet viewers across the country," Lance Gilman, Mustang Ranch owner, said in a statement. "There's a very compelling ?Wild West in 2012' story that we're eager to share, and it's so much more than most people might be expecting.?

The show will follow Gilman and Madam Susan Austin who built and run the Mustang Ranch Resort. The half-hour episodes will also feature other various staffers, the working ladies and regular clients. Mustang Ranch Resort became the first legal brothel in 1971.

This isn't the first brothel reality show. HBO has followed the adventures of Dennis Hof and the ladies of the Moonlite BunnyRanch since 2005. Helen Mirren's 2010 film "Love Ranch" was loosely based on events that took place at Mustang Ranch.

In a press release, "Mustang Ranch: Labor of Love" is described as a "profound love story between Lance and Susan, and their unflinching commitment to providing a safe, sensual and emotionally supportive environment for the people they employ, and the public who understand and appreciate the world's oldest profession."

Pee Wee Herman is also honored, as is The Queen of Soul herself, Aretha Franklin, who performs wonderfully and, yes, soulfully. In honor of this grand annual TV event that celebrates TV so well, here's my playlist for tonight's great TV party. As always please add your own tubular tracks below.

Voice Sensation Down Under

If you think the judges on the UK version of The Voice are enamoured of the acts that have come their way, check out this clip of the Australian version of the talent show.

Judges including country star Keith Urban, Seal, Delta Goodrem and Joel Madden all bashed their buttons in unison as soon as they heard the stunning tones of teenager Karise Eden belting out James Brown's It's a Man's Man's Word.

The Aussie teenager had obviously been listening to her Janis Joplin collection - and swotting up on her Tina Turner too.

Keith Urban looked particularly overwhelmed by what he was hearing and was on his feet as the song ended.

All four coaches to have Karise on their team, but the teenager opted to go with Seal - who yelled, "Sing it" as Karises hit her final notes.

With the US version of the show also gaining in popularity, it can only be a matter of time until there's an international version... Voice of Voices?

Here are the UK contestants in action this week - have any of these got what it takes to match Karise?
