Sports Great Deion Sanders Is Getting A Reality Show Thanks To Oprah!

As if you didn't already have enough reality television to keep up with on a regular basis, Oprah Winfrey's network (appropriately called OWN…brilliant!) is in the works to create a new show that I know I will totally get sucked into watching.

Being touted at as a docu-series (that's Oprah's fancy way of saying "reality show"), the premise of the program is to follow the daily life of former NFL star Deion Sanders.  Count. Me. In.

Deadline is reporting that a series following the football great has been ordered by the network.  It promises to showcase "the crazy and chaotic family life" of Deion and crew.

The network describes Deion as a “football legend, baseball great, broadcaster, Hall of Famer, international superstar, businessman, educator and father,” and I for one am beyond excited.  I have been crossing my fingers that ESPN would resurrect The Life (anyone remember this gem?), as seeing sports superstars in their daily lives is a somewhat guilty pleasure of mine.  Don't even get me started on NASCAR 360!

Deion's show will be called Prime Time (what, no Neon reference?) and will premiere in early 2014.  I guess OWN will be getting a new fan come the new year!

TELL US-WILL YOU BE WATCHING PRIME TIME ON OWN?
