Well, I'm sure those will be informative, well-balanced documentaries about how everyday fans express their passion in an appropriate manner. Not.

Lol, I was thinking the same thing. Maybe I'm just way off base here but I hope that "Fandemonium" show isn't going to be like some of those shows which act like they're approaching from a neutral point of view but ultimately they're making fun of/belittling people. O.o

Also, I believe there is a typo in the article in this line "which focuses on fan girls and fan boys, how express their passion, and how they balance their fandom..."

Really? We need Joe Rogan to do a Ghost Hunters knockoff? I know he thinks we live in the Matrix, but I dunno.

My expectations are way too low for these series... (But I would love it if I was completely wrong and they turned out to be unbiased and interesting!)

Kind of have a feeling that's exactly what it'll be.

Someone from Jersey Shore, and someone from Flavor of Love are going to be the hosts of these shows?

SOMEPEOPLE FROM MTV/VH1 ARE HOSTING SHOWS ABOUT ANIME FANS??!?

This is going to be ridiculous.
Watch 'em turn atleast one of them into an America's Funniest Home Videos kind of thing.
