ManiaTV’s Newest CJ Sensation, a Crass, Foul-Mouthed Pig Puppet

April 13, 2007- ManiaTV’s newest interactive advice segment is none other than a plump, pink pig puppet named Danny Reno. The cyber celebrity swine, who regularly demeans his co-workers and brings with him a drove of “pigisms” blending the clever with the absurdly inappropriate, aims to take the world’s leading provider of LIVE Internet TV to a new level of interactive comedy with the newly created segment, “Ask The Pig”.

ManiaTV viewers will be able to write or call into Danny Reno seeking answers to any of life’s questions, big or small. The new interactive segment can be seen LIVE every Friday on Warehouse: Behind the Scenes a show that features the nearly 100 characters who work at ManiaTV! studios. Previous episodes of the segment can be found on demand at the newly created ‘DannyRenoTV’.

The perverted pig, who started as a joke in ManiaTV’s popular gambling advice segment, EddieVegas, quickly gained popularity after his scratchy voice and nasty attitude inspired viewers to descend on the chat rooms with clear demands: “More Pig!”

ManiaTV.com is responding with a viral campaign aimed at making “the Pig” a more accessible and visible comedic personality for web surfers in search of a laugh.

“He’s a crude, mean, and obnoxious pig who everyone absolutely loves. You can hear the entire studio laughing every time we do the show. Why not give the outside viewers a chance to laugh along as well?”    - CJ Tre, Producer & Host of the Warehouse

“If you find yourself much-amused at the failings, idiocy and befouling of others, then you’re an awful person. But it’s this unique quality that also makes you Reno-worthy! Tune in – let’s see if we can make the piglets cry!!”     - Danny Reno, Pig
