Made For TV is a hilarious unscripted docu-comedy series that follows social media star Boman Martinez-Reid as he tries to make the jump from Content Creator to Television Icon. With the guidance of a celebrity advisor, each episode features Boman as he tests out a different genre of TV with the hopes of finding one that will propel him to television fame. Which turns out, is not an easy feat.
Throughout the season, Boman tries everything from being a heartthrob on his own Reality Dating show to delivering The News live on air. He pushes himself to the limits as he battles his ego and insecurities with varying degrees of success. A heavy hitting list of Celebrity Advisors puts Boman through a series of tests to see if he has what it takes to make it in their genre. In the end, an Ultimate Test sees all of Boman’s new found skills put to use as he tackles the genre head on. In order to succeed, all he has to do is listen to the Advisors, stay humble and be willing to grow. Which, for Boman, is easier said than done. He’s funny, confident and ready to prove that he’s Made For TV.
