Never watched the series but I will be watching this one, when does it come out? I'll be interested to see what they do with it, but for now I will be tentatively optimistic that they will have a sympathetic outlook. I think the fact that they can even acknowledge this sort of thing is encouraging, right? But I do have to agree with HP that most of the guys on the program will probably have Barcafan or GKboy hairloss.

No they'll want someone with obvious hairloss, remember most non m.p.b sufferers dont really notice anything less than NW3. They'll want someone like Norsk.
The point is though I've seen shows like this before they'll have a guy slathering on snake oils infront of the mirror and trying to hide it with crafty combing. Like some desperate saddo.
They wont be promoting a drug that was made for a prostate condition to young viewers.
Then they'll show guys like Vin Diesel and Tyson Beckford and try to argue that its ok for every guy to just shave it off and it wont matter.
And of course they'll have the obligatory girls saying "No it does'nt matter, I'd date a bald guy" :roll:

The show usually follows 3 people.
It's probably going to be 1 dude who is comically bald (like 18 years old with a grown out horseshoe or something) and who is neurotic/entertaining and desperately trying to grow it back, then 1 dude who "accepts" it and has shaved his head and lives a cool lifestyle (and is probably exceedingly handsome), and then there might be a chick who has thinning hair (minor) and it will show the impact it has on her.
We'll probably see Toppik and combovers, and maybe passing mentions of minoxidil and finasteride. Possibly see a kid who's had a hair transplant.
I'm looking forward to it!

I have a strong feeling that the people in charge of putting this show together have a few people in production researching this forum and the couple other big ones.... they must know who CCS is by now just by reading his posts.... as well as some other guys in here.
its a shame that so many old posts in the off topic where erased....... such gems... MTV producers would have LOVED them

I am hoping this program can drum up some sympathy and understanding for our plight. God knows the target demographic (teenagers/early twenties) can be cruel and unforgiving.

I don't know who CCS is, nor how bald he is. But generally speaking, I think we can all agree that *the* worst-case scenario regarding androgenic alopecia is when somebody is hit very young. So for starters, let's put our youngest balding guy out there to "tell our story" of how it affects us. Society expects us to "be men" about our hair loss, to suck it up, and accept our condition because it is normal. But it is really only "normal" to start losing hair at a later age. At least that is my opinion. My heart really goes out to young guys out there who have "that haircut", who realize they are losing their hairs. If I started losing my hair before I even hit my twenties, I would FREAK OUT!!! Hell, I freaked out at age 27 when I realized my hairline was receding a bit (just my temples at that point!).
I just wanted to give my two cents on this thread. I think this is a good opportunity to shed some light on the situation, to let people know that we don't enjoy losing our hair, so thanks but no thanks for making fun of those of us who are, that general message.
Funny how 80% of the hotties in high school end up noticeably overweight by the time they are 30, and yet they don't realize that in high school. Wish they would bloat out when we guys are dealing with acne or early-onset hair loss or whatever we deal/dealt with in high school.
Good luck!
