Ooh, how does this taste, Top Chef? CBS has managed to out-product-placement the most product placement-y reality show of our time with a new show called Jingles. Hosted by American Idol season 2 cast-off Kimberly Caldwell (yeah, I know), the Mark Burnett-produced series will see aspiring songwriters competing by writing and singing commercial jingles for a variety of products -- take that, Top Chef Glad Wrap pantry! Leave this to the professionals!
The good news is that Jingles' premiere date has been postponed indefinitely. The bad news is production is ongoing and CBS totally swears it's going to happen soon. The extra-bad news is that Mark Burnett may be the Antichrist, and now he's so unfathomably rich from creating these awful shows that we're all doomed. Oh well, I'd make a good minion. Minion it is! I love Jingles! (Oh god, please don't squish me, all-powerful Mark Burnett!)
