Going to the well-endowed well once again, MTV is reportedly riffing on HBO's adult dramedy, Hung, for the teen crowd.
Created by Survivor producer (and Nicky Hilton-date) David Katzenberg, Hard Times is the story of a high-schooler humiliated in front of the whole school in an act of pubic, er, public nudity, who suddenly becomes popular after the revelation that he's the boy with something extra. Obviously, this is not Tom Hanks' Big, but the supposed former music network is hoping their big man on campus comes up huge in the ratings.
We're just hoping for a pay-per-view crossover episode with The Hills.
