Someone (perhaps more than one someone; perhaps a company, perhaps even a network or two) is going to receive and finally unwrap and open a 100 million dollar PLUS present this year.
Unfortunately, it’s not going to come free. Just the proverbal Ethiopian scam, it’s going to require an initial investment of belief, risk, time, and some money.
Unlike the Ethiopian scam, it’s not a scam. The lucky winner will be investing in many good highly talented people and an even better idea, and it will pay off in many more ways than mere cash.
The recipient will have put at least 80 people to work part time, and for many months out of the year, even more full time.
They will receive the thanks and kudos of hundreds of worldwide TV and music critics as well as multi-millions of TV viewers begging for reality television that isn’t either total complete crap about talentless creeps, hateful freaks, or hosted by male underwear models who, to this day don’t have a real estate OR contractors’ license but play BOTH on HGTV (you know who you are).
They will participate in creating television that will receive the personal fandom and guaranteed viewership of Hillary Clinton. Guaranteed.
They will be responsible for helping one of Hollywood’s most beloved Oscar-winning actresses to reconnect for the first time to a rock and roll audience of hundreds of millions worldwide.
More than that, they will be giving hundreds of millions of people of all ages worldwide hope that they too can remain or even become productive and relevant and highly desired and popular in their later years. Women mostly, but men too.
But most of all, they will be giving the world an unlikely “family” that will prove the American Dream can and will come true for everyone who works as hard as they can and never gives up until they reach their dreams.
No matter the overwhelming odds against them.
Brilliant music; brilliant never-before-seen reality television with a heart about talented people with handicaps of age, health, and politics; brilliant voices who have never stopped trying to make the world a better place (even stridently) just to succeed.
Real people in real lives who care deeply about this country, this world, this planet and aren’t afraid to speak their minds.
And with a contest that will interest every single family in the country. Watching hints in every episode to win. Money. Prizes. Cash. Trips.
Compelling television. Compelling reality. America at its finest, on the cusp of regaining magnificence and moral authority and exporting the world’s number one music phenomenon to the world. Once again.
A tall order. But it’s here.
Will you be the one to open it? To bring it to your company? To fight for it at your network?
A man called Simon Cowell took a tarted up version of second-rate syndicated “Star Search” to England where no one had ever heard of Ed McMahon and the result was a program, which, re-imported to the US became “American Idol”.
A phenomenon.
It will happen again. But you have to be able to get it when you see it.
The American TV audience is hungry for something its been denied for decades, foisted off to the ghettos of less than a handful of TV cable channels.
Music. Real music, not just 40’s soundstage music videos, fantastic as they are. They too in time have become boring.
So the coming phenomenon can’t be just another rock band.
But it just might be the rock band up the street. Reno’ing that derelict abandoned Schwarzeneggar mansion on that mountain in Las Vegas, being slowly demolished as you read. You know, the band with that incredible girl
who sings with Starship. And that unbelievable rocking soul singer who’s number one throughout the Orient, South America, and the Mideast.
You know. The one that Shirley “Partridge” Jones actually joined. That her husband, wacky Marty Ingels, put through the wringer. Half a million views on youtube, without a single MSM mention.
With that lead singer whose weight goes up and down 200 lbs. every time he does a project. With the high voice that sounds like a girl half the time. Who thinks he’s Brian Wilson in the studio.
And Barbra Streisand in politics. Who’s got a crush on Monica Crowley. Monica Crowley!?!?!!?
You know. Those two guys who were precinct captains for Hillary Clinton in 2008 and were very slow in coming around and trusting Obama but made up for lost time the past three years.
The ambiguously gay duo who’ve lived together for too damn long.
What a freak show. A disaster in the making. And in THAT wreck of a house? During a to the pylons reno? No one has to semi-script this, just put them all together and watch the sparks fly.
Between them with their new found audience, and the rest of the world.
You know, SOMEDAY someone in the media or on MSNBC or the MSM is going to discover, fall in love with, and mention these folks, and it will be all over. Katie Couric? Rosie? Oprah? Ellen?
In a blink, their two reality TV shows will be on and flying, and you’ll have blown it.
Again.
Last chance. It’s wrapped up nicer than anything you’ve ever seen. You’ll never see or receive anything like it ever again.
Worst of all? Everyone else in the biz is getting one too this Christmas.
Who will open it first? Who will go into battle first?
Who will win first?
This month (October 2012) The Forever Family website has beaten ALL PRIOR RECORDS BY 1100 HITS! PER DAY!!!
Don’t know what caused it, but thanks so much to every one of you for spreading the word!!
Thanks!!
Call it nuts, call it a feeling, call it ridiculous faith in the face of overwhelming odds, call it belief, I just think we’re going to finally sell the TV shows THIS month.
Maybe it’s the networks getting tired of providing soft core sex and violence porn dramas for church ladies and their kids who can’t get the real stuff on the internet. There’s a new drama about firefighters, and of course the first promo has this shirtless stud getting it on in a locker room. Nice. TV learned the lessons of “Pan Am”, a truly GREAT show that unfortunately didn’t get to the soft core porn in time, until the 5th or 6th episode. GONE.
Look, TV drama, that’s what you’re there for: repressed church women and their kids who aren’t allowed on the internet to see REAL porn. We used to call it “romance” novels in the 70’s when housewives had time to read.
And reality TV? You’re no different. You’re worse. Call me nuts, I think THIS season is going to be the one where execs and the public put THEIR feet down and say “NO” to talentless Kardashians, porn tape Hiltons, and downfall of civilization guidos and guidettes on “Jersey Shore”. I think TV and the public have just about had enough of PURE CRAP.
I think there is at least ONE TV exec out there that would like to put something on the tube and have it successful that they would be PROUD to have their kids watch. Real people with real talent, overcoming life’s obstacles. Like a dying music business where no one can make money off recordings anymore because everyone steals. And it costs a fortune to get it on the radio, call it whatever you want to. Just to have people hear it enough to WANT to steal it. And execs who sign talent with their schlongs.
But that’s all negative, yesterday, and I’m really feeling hope tonight. Mike and me went up to the house as we do on many nights, and the moon and the stars were just so clear tonight, incredibly almost supernaturally clear. Normally the moon washes out the stars, but not tonight. Orion was directly over the house, and it just seemed like suddenly all the hopelessness and disgust with the world evaporated. The nation will be getting further and FIRMLY on track in November with many obstructing jackasses shown the door. A new day is coming.
And with it, a couple of TV shows about this crazy unlikely love and peace happy pop band, of crazy fun people who can actually rock. And would never win “Idol” or “America’s Got Talent” or be cast on “Glee” because they’re just too freakishly different. While at the same time being like a TV family from forever ago that you knew and loved forever and grew up with, believing that when you too grew up and were in charge of YOUR life, the world would be a much better place.
That’s The Forever Family. That’s what they’re all about. That’s why their TV shows are finally going to sell this month.
It’s just time.
And it’s all right, NOW.
Well there it is. Fascist Neo-Nazi Rock nets 1 million a year, and YET NOT A SINGLE RECORD COMPANY will even call The Forever Family, even after a half a million views on youtube.
Is the world really THIS ef’ed up?
You tell me. SMART record companies AND the MSM would be falling over themselves right now to sign and promote every single “family” type “peace-love” band they could find, before another Tipper Gore starts another inevitable, at this point, witchhunt.
ESPECIALLY one with TWO reality TV series in the works with enormous potential. Not to mention FANTASTIC music in ANY era.
And how many reality TV shows and rock bands have someone WHO WON THE FRICKING OSCAR IN THEM?
But that’s how we see it. We REFUSE to live in a world that profits off hate.
Do you?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
America’s PREMIERE unsigned, undiscovered LOVE AND PEACE pop rock supergroup seeks $1,000,000 to immediately:
Property is in the Las Vegas area which, to all reports, has reached the bottom of the real estate market. Collateral will be the property itself, which will only go up in value as fame and renovations are made.
The group has had an established web presence for eight years, including five years on myspace and one year on youtube with over half a million views. The music is brilliant and is available elsewhere on this website for free download, as well as all information about the VERY talented (and surprising) members of this enterprise.
We need an enterprising unique high-risk individual who would love being either an active part of this project, or a silent partner. We will return DOUBLE the investment, made in at least equal payment installments or MORE at our discretion, over the period of one year, to start at the end of three years from the receipt of funds. If a single payment cannot be made, the property will be returned in full with all improvements intact.
We would respectfully ask that folks in the GOP and conservatives do NOT waste time applying. All else are gratefully welcome.
For more complete information and links to extensive info about the property, please e-mail theforeverfamily@embarqmail.com or call me at my personal cell (702) 278-2936 anytime.
Thanks for reading, your understanding, and for your consideration.
Leslie Lee Bell
Addendum:
Already many questions have come in as to exactly WHY we are rejecting offers of help from GOP/Conservatives.
The answer is simple. Smart businesspeople are smart enough to go with the clear winner, and demographics insures that the GOP and conservatism as they exist today are dying out.
Whatever your political beliefs, smart money goes with winners. One gets nothing at all from losers or future losers.
Our project needs smart money; it does not need stupid money, NOR is stupid money likely to give us any help whatsoever, because stupid will be unable to see the potential in our project.
It really is that simple. If you happen to be one of the handful of conservative gamblers who like to throw your money away and gets as much a charge out of losing as winning, our project is not for you. You will me far more happier wasting your money on buying yourself a very temporary political candidate or a loser or a PAC.
People who bet against the majority of the American People are not only going to lose everything, they’re not going to understand this project in any way whatsoever.
And the majority of the American People are not, nor will they ever be, conservative, no matter how much money is thrown away. America itself was founded by radicals rebelling against a tyrannically conservative foreign government, and the spirit lives on.
That is the simple fact of the matter. If you get it, contact us. If you don’t, you probably haven’t read this far anyway.
Also: If the Merritt family in Canada is looking for up to seven lost US heirs and heiresses via Ellory, I’ll gladly take a blood test.
I’ve been putting off writing this for awhile now, because I didn’t want to poke anyone. However, just like on Facebook, sometimes it is time.
“The Partridge Family” TV series, STARRING SHIRLEY JONES and FEATURING DAVID CASSIDY, which ran from September of 1970 to June of 1974, happened to have had a TV viewership of from 26 (that’s TWENTY-SIX) to 30 (that’s THIRTY) MILLION viewers for the first three seasons. Oscar-winning hot mom Shirley Jones faked rocking with her two gorgeous teenagers and average younger children with manager Reuben Kincaid (Dave Madden formerly of “Laugh-In” fame) finding all sorts of ways to mess up their club and park shows. They never really played, Shirley hardly sang, and only David toured his rear off. Literally.
Even in the final year, opposite ALL IN THE FAMILY and cursed with Ricky Segal, it reached an audience of 15-16 MILLION viewers per episode. Against the number one new show in the country. Lovable bigot Archie Bunker.
The Partridge Family was NOT canceled due to poor ratings; it was canceled because David Cassidy needed to get out of a situation that was becoming increasingly untenable for his personal mental and physical well-being. In addition, money Screen Gems had reserved for radio promotion now went directly to Mr. Cassidy in a contract re-upping coup (Cassidy had been a minor when the original heinous contract had been signed.) However, no payola, no airplay, no hits. No one was ever nice (or brave) enough to tell Mr. Cassidy he would have to pay for his own record airplay promotion from that time forward.
As far as those insane viewership numbers? Don’t take my word for it; google it. Nielsen Numbers don’t lie.
26 to 30 MILLION.
Fast forward to today:
MTV is OVERJOYED when “Jersey Shore”, one of the highest quality shows of all time (with critical raves to prove it!!) got 8.4 MILLION discerning viewers for the debut episode of season THREE, and brags that the second season averaged 5.2 MILLION viewers per episode, and those numbers being all-time highs for the network.
While “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” reality show dipped in viewing figures between the fifth and six seasons – from an average of 3.5 MILLION to 3 MILLION.
As we know, both these shows will be in eternal syndication long after the downfall of western civilization they caused. Like Donna Reed and I Love Lucy, they will be watched a thousand years from now. Not. Lucy and Donna Reed, yes. The Partridge Family and the Brady Bunch? Hell yes. Jersey Shore and Kardashians? Please.
Okay. Let’s say, for the sake of argument, that 20 MILLION of those original Partridge Family viewers are DEAD. Not remotely true, but let’s just say it for kicks (X-er’s HATE boomers). That leaves 6 to 10 MILLION still alive and tooting around in their hoverrounds.
And let’s just say, for the sake of argument, that an incredible number of ONE million of those original viewers are absolute David Cassidy fan diehards and would rather Shirley Jones be dead than perform with any other rock band. (Don’t laugh, you can google online arguments with more than a few of THOSE PEOPLE.)
That would leave, out of the original fan base, FIVE to NINE million people who would want DESPERATELY to tune into a show each week watching Shirley Jones learn to rock for real. Especially if it had a heart and wasn’t about Danny Bonaduce wrecking the great middle of his life.
And that’s out of the ORIGINAL airing of the series. Not counting new fans from the MAJOR AIRING on MTV at the end of the 80’s nor the MAJOR AIRING on NICK AT NITE from 1991 to 1993, getting yet ANOTHER THIRD generation of Shirley Jones/Partridge Family fans. OR none of the fans from the CONSTANT running in syndication, WORLD WIDE.
Add to this mythical TV show about Shirley joining a real rock band and learning to rock for real, a contest where THREE FAMILIES win an all-expense paid vacation to Las Vegas and live in the tremendous huge house (originally designed for Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver and yes, THAT maid) and major cash and sponsor prizes of 1st Prize $100,000 and a week in the house/Vegas Vacation, 2nd Prize $50,000 cash and five days in the house/ Vegas Vacation, 3rd Prize $25,000 and a three-day weekend in the house/Vegas vacation, with all the free comped shows and meals and limo serivce Las Vegas has to offer. Let’s make this contest show LIVE, and do a LIVE DRAWING with all three families present. Add to it hundreds of other prizes viewers at home will win.
Starting to look a bit more like American Idol, isn’t it, ONLY THE PRIZE WINNERS AREN’T THE FOLKS ON THE SHOW, BUT ACTUALLY IN THE VIEWING AUDIENCE. The viewing audience doesn’t get to vote for the winners at their own expense per call; they have an actual chance to BE THE WINNERS. I think that’s worth at least another 2 MILLION viewers who normally wouldn’t watch a band show, how about you?
Add to it the MAJOR ROCK stars, Partridge Family fans themselves, who will LINE UP and BATTLE EACH OTHER over a chance to appear in one episode, teaching Shirley to rock for real, while the rest of the cast records and works with major choreographer TRAVIS PAYNE (Michael Jackson, remember him?) as they rehearse for their first major tour in filming hiatus after the first season.
Oh. Kind of the the American Idol and Glee tours. Wow. Coming each summer to a town near you.
Only with a built-in base of how many millions of fans?
Wow. Why isn’t this on the air already?
What’s that you say? There’s more? This isn’t just ONE show on a formerly MAJOR network?
There’s also a RENO show, which concentrates solely on the reno of the house by HOLMES HOMES? You mean HOLMES HOMES of MIKE HOLMES? As in “HOLMES ON HOLMES”, Number ONE reno series of all time on HGTV and HGTV-Canada?
And that show shares the CONTEST? And the live contest broadcast happens on BOTH networks SIMULTANEOUSLY at the end of each season?
One reno show reinforcing the music show and vice versa?
So let me get this straight. Better than Idol (VIEWERS win, not cast, not to mention far cheaper), PLUS the Partridge Family fan base, Glee, only for REAL (real musicians NOT actors), PLUS Holmes on Holmes? IN TWO mutually reinforcing series?
QUICK. SOMEONE GET ME ON THE PHONE TO THEM BEFORE ANYONE ELSE DOES!!
AND GET LEGAL ON THE OTHER LINE!

I promised I’d let everyone know as soon as I knew something, and so here it is!
Just got an e-mail from Mike Holmes!!! He saw our project! This means a lot to us, because as you might or might not know, we’ve been trying to get it to him since December of 2010.
Unfortunately, he’s too booked up for the next several years to take it on. However, though, there is still a way we might be able to get the house overseen by his company and still get the Holmes name on it (and built right.)
They’ve got a division called Holmes Homes that builds custom homes. Oversees the entire construction. When we sell our shows, we’re seeing if they will allow us to hire them to oversee the reno, so that way we “Make it Right”.
So that’s where we stand now. We just hired a brilliant editor and producer in his own right to cut a new sizzle reel which will be going up on youtube in May. This will also be shopped to all the major production companies.
So things are moving.
We’ll let you know any more info as it becomes available. Right here on the blog and in the forum and on Facebook.
Thanks for all your support. Oh, we’ve surpassed 4000 hits a day to the website beating all former records. Also for CD downloads!
And the youtube channel is rapidly approaching a million views!!!
Thanks everyone!!
Les
Now we finally know he has the project and can look at it.
Will post when we hear anything back and as soon as we can.
Took over almost two years, but the end result will be worth it.
Les
What does Canada’s first family of renovation have to do with The Forever Family?
NOTHING. YET.
BREAKING NEWS. STAY TUNED.
