According to
B&C, MTV and NBC are close to partnering on the reality series "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" (A judge turned down a request from disgraced Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich
to appear on the upcoming show.) The unique deal means NBC and MTV forge a collaboration for the Granada America series. MTV would contribute to creative as well as cross-promotional efforts with NBC.
NBC is stripping "I'm a Celebrity" over four weeks beginning June 1.
