Ricky Schroder to Star in Silver Meth Spoons
-By Claudia Stavola-
Former child star, Ricky Schroder, has been making news over the last few years for antics involving back-to-back domestic abuse arrests, and for filming himself harassing an employee at a store that sells butt wipes, off-brand mayo, and Twinkies, in bulk.
Hollywood producers who always have their finger on the pulse of what’s trending (and on the pulse of actresses’ necks they knocked out during an audition) thought it would be perfect timing to capitalize on Schroder’s resurgence, especially with so many old shows being rebooted and revamped. Silver Meth Spoons will be loosely based on the original sitcom but with some of Schroder’s real life mixed in. He’ll still be a [51-year-old] kid who moves in with his estranged dad, but this time it’s because his big mouth and big meth problem have gotten him into all sorts of calamities! Each week follow Ricky to see what kind of paranoia-fueled hijinks he’ll get into next!
The premiere is full of shenanigans and family fun when Ricky shows up at his favorite White Trash Buffet…sans pants! After tweaking for 72 hours in dad’s basement, Ricky’s hangry. When the restaurant host tells him to cover up his little Dicky Schroder, Ricky seats himself…firmly in the troth of pulled pork and takes a crap! Oh snap, what will this anti-pantser do next? He makes sure everybody knows that nobody’s going to take away his freedom of intrusive stupidity. He then grabs all the spoons, heats his meth over the chafing-pan fuel, and hilarity ensues!
According to reviews, the whole season will have you choking on your Slim Jims and cigs as Ricky gets into one riotous altercation after the other. Silver Meth Spoons airs on HBTV, Wednesdays at nobody-gives-a-shit o’clock. *HBTV (Has-Beens TV)
