Is Bruce Jenner Getting His Own Show?

by Jamie Primeau

Have you ever watched reruns of Keeping Up With the Kardashians and thought, "Wow, I really wish Bruce had his own show"? If so, I have some wonderful news! Well, it's potentially wonderful, because it's not confirmed yet. But it's still a reason to get excited: Bruce Jenner could be starring in his own TV series. According to TMZ, there are multiple networks interested in setting up a deal with Bruce and the Jenner boys (aka his sons Brody, Brandon, and Burt). I'd have to imagine Kendall and Kylie Jenner would make appearances too, right?

As a big fan of Bruce Jenner, I think this news is pretty great. In fact, a few months ago, I wrote a post speculating possible reality show options for Bruce: from a Rock of Love spin-off to joining the cast of The Hills. While none of those ideas came to fruition (unfortunately), here's how TMZ describes the potential show:

Sources close to the situation tell us most of the offers involve shooting, ironically, Kardashian-style -- following Bruce and his 3 sons while they race cars, travel, and just generally bro out. Think "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" ... with a bit more testosterone.

Interesting that it'd be shot in a style similar to Keeping Up With the Kardashians . No complains on my part, but it's just funny since he seemed to not always enjoy being on KUWTK. This got me thinking about how similar would this new show be to its E! counterpart. Would it have an alliterative name, in addition to a fun acronym? Here are some potential ideas:

Joking Around With The Jenners

JAWTJ for short! Bruce always loved pulling pranks on Kim, so he could run around and try out various jokes.

Behind the Scenes With Bruce

Otherwise known as BTSWB. We'd get plenty of insight into what Bruce is *really* thinking, since he doesn't have to hold back anymore (aka no more dealing with Kris Jenner).

Just Being Bruce Jenner

#JBBJ, of course. The daily trials and tribulations of good, old Bruce J.

Those all sound pretty great to me! Now to compare this possible new show to KUWTK, I've made this handy venn diagram:

In conclusion, they seem similar enough where I'd be inclined to watch every episode. Yet still different, so it wouldn't feel like I was watching the same show over and over. So fingers crossed, here's hoping Just Being Bruce Jenner becomes a reality!
