NO GOOD TV Puts the 'F-U' Back Into Fun With the Only Network That Brings You the Biggest Stars in the World, Uncensored and Paparazzi-Free!

NO GOOD TV Unveils Premium Broadband Video Network at NGTV.COM Packed With Exclusive and Uncensored Original Entertainment Featuring Hollywood's Hottest Stars!

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., May 1 /PRNewswire/ -- NGTV (NO GOOD TV), the world's largest producer of uncensored celebrity news and entertainment programming, announces the beta launch of NGTV.COM. This ground-breaking, free-to-consumer broadband network showcases the biggest A-list celebrities and covers all things entertainment. The beta site is the first phase of a multi-platform launch that encompasses television, mobile and broadband distribution along with a next generation social-networking site set for release later this year.

The first and only network of its kind, NO GOOD TV breaks down the walls and brings fans closer to the stars than ever before. The network has gained enviable access to Hollywood's A-list by making it a policy to avoid tabloid and paparazzi fare. In a media genre dominated by ambush television, NO GOOD TV emerges as an artist-friendly network created with fans front of mind. This unique combination makes NGTV.COM an ideal promotional and advertising platform for anyone looking to reach the elusive 18-34 demo.

NO GOOD TV is positioned to bridge the gap between traditional and new media. The site is packed with next generation video programming; complete with high-end production values rarely seen in the broadband video space. The ever-expanding platform at NGTV.COM brings to the web the very best of NO GOOD TV's 10,000 hour library of exclusive, uncensored originals and "directors cut" music videos.

"Artists need a platform to express themselves freely. It's the reason artists become artists in the first place and the reason fans become fans. We set out to create a vehicle for artistic self-expression devoid of censorship and humiliation. What we ended up with is an amazing, first of its kind experience," said Kourosh Taj, Co-President and Head of Programming. "Our world is definitely uninhibited, at times outrageous and always provocative. It's a place where opinions are expected and attitude is preferred but, above all else, NO GOOD TV is about having fun!"

NO GOOD TV's irreverent programming combines scripted comedy and uncensored celebrity interviews with an innovative blend of live action, CG animation and puppetry. On air hosts, led by the beautiful and fearless Carrie Keagan and God's Gift to Women (and men) Shark Firestone, represent a new wave of sexy and exciting talent who guide viewers through the "NO GOOD" experience ... and help put the F-U back into fun!

Carrie and Shark are joined by CG animated NO GOOD TV mascots including, Cock Tolstoy, a rooster with an attitude problem, and Beaver Brown, a furry, fun loving beaver. Also along for the ride are Kenneth De Balzac, a French kangaroo with a foul mouth, Bud Deeler, a puppet-cum-messianic prophet, and a big red furry dragon named Toke Tolkien, Bud's imaginary sidekick (who keeps him grounded while flying high).

Individual series episodes are broken down into engaging 5-7 minute segments with new clips added to NGTV.COM daily. The site currently offers more than a dozen different original series and themed broadband channels, with plans for at least six new original series concepts to be added by summer. The current line-up includes:
