More about Dr.Drew

Dr.Drew,the "protagonist" f the show, is the host of another famous VH1 show, "Celebrity Rehab with Dr.Drew"

"Celebrity Rehab" is the first television series to chronicle the dramatic, unscripted real life experiences of a group of actual celebrities as they make the life-changing decision to enter themselves into a drug, alcohol and addiction treatment program with the sincere desire to achieve true rehabilitation and recovery.

This compelling true account of addiction, healing, and redemption is being supervised with great compassion and insight by renowned addiction and recovery expert Dr. Drew Pinsky, Medical Director of the Department of Chemical Dependency Services at Southern California's Las Encinas Hospital, and host of the long-running radio and television advice series LOVELINE".

This inspirational journey begins inside one of Southern California's private addiction and recovery treatment facilities, the Pasadena Recovery Center, where a group of well-known celebrities make the brave decision to commit themselves to a legitimate protocol of supervised medical treatment over a period of several weeks At every step in
this challenging process, viewers at home will witness the real true life struggles of these celebrity patients, who ultimately appear in their sincerest human form as regular people in need of a helping hand and earnestly striving for recovery, health and future happiness.

The cast include "Rodney King, the man whose videotaped beating by police officers sparked the 1992 LA riots.Also in “Rehab” are former stripper-turned-”American Idol” Season 1 finalist Nikki McKibbin, actress Tawny Kitaen, model/actress Amber Smith, former Guns N’ Roses drummer Steven Adler and Rod Stewart’s troubled son Sean Stewart.

I believe that this show is shocking, it is amazing to see how people that had the s-called "perfect lives" are now suffering with addiction and facing new problems everyday. For example, Steven Adler, former Guns N Roses drummer, was one of the famous faces of the 80's. Today, he is in the show, facing his addictions and realizing that everything he had is now gone.
Dr.Drew is an amazing host, he clearly knows the subject,and considering he now hosts two famous shows, he has all the experienced needed.
