BREAKING: Anthony Scaramucci sues Showtime over new sitcom, "YO! Watch Out For The C*ck!"
No link yet...breaking news.
Anthony Scaramucci sues Showtime over new sitcom, "YO! Watch Out For The C*ck!"
Pictured above: Actor Tony Danza as "Tony Smith" in the new Showtime sitcom "YO! Watch Out For The C*ck!"
HOLLYWOOD CA - Showtime Networks revealed today that they are entangled in a lawsuit with President Trump's pick for his new Communications Director, Anthony Scaramucci. Known for his flamboyant personal style and self-described "colorful" language, Scaramucci's attorneys claim that the new sitcom is an "unauthorized use of the likeness and personal conversations of our client. We are seeking $19 million in damages."
By a remarkable coincidence, $19 million is the same amount of money that Scaramucci stands to earn from the pending sale of his company.
The Showtime sitcom focuses on the life, loves, and misadventures of "Tony Smith," a hedge fund manager whose favorite catch phrase is "YO! Watch Out For The C*ck!" every time someone invades his personal space, or he feels that he has been insulted. Actor Tony Danza reportedly wears multiple facial prosthetics and spends a minimum of ten hours in the makeup chair before each shoot. When asked about his uncanny resemblance to Scaramucci, Danza replied "Really? Hmmm...I'm not seein' it."
Actress Kate Hudson portrays Tony's wife, DeeDee. When informed that Scaramucci's wife's name is Deidre, and that it might be one reason why attorneys feel the sitcom is too close to reality, Danza replied "Really? Hmmm...I'm not seein' it."
In the premiere episode, DeeDee is summoned to the TV by Tony, who announces "YO! Baby! Will you look at that? It's the fuckin' WHITE HOUSE! I'm gonna be workin' right THERE some day, baby! LOOK! Right THERE! It's TRUMP! Me and the fuckin' DONALD, baby!"
The embattled DeeDee replies "DONALD! Donald, Donald, Donald! All I evah heah is "DONALD!" Why don't you just go MARRY the Donald?"
A visibly agitated Tony replies "YO! Watch Out For The C*ck!" as the laugh track plays and the episode fades to the closing credits.
When informed that Scaramucci is facing divorce from his wife over his pro-Trump sentiments, and that he is currently working in the White House, even though he has not been officially hired, Danza replied "Really? Hmmm...I'm not seein' it."
"YO! Watch Out For The C*ck!" premiers on Showtime October 1st.
