'I Can Has Cheezburger' lolcats TV show in the works


I can has TV show too?
 
A reality show is being planned based on the popular cat meme site I Can Has Cheezburger, according to a report on tech site Mashable.
 
Mashable said Bravo Media announced on Wednesday that one of its new reality series will focus on Ben Huh, the humor site’s CEO, and his “eclectic staff.”
 
"The show is tentatively called 'Huh?'. Bravo also revealed 10 other unscripted series, eight returning unscripted series and two new scripted projects in development for 2013," it said.
 
But it also said Huh has tweeted he will keep mum about the series details.
 
"I Can Has Cheezburger" is best known for igniting the lolcat meme, or photographs of cats with text placed on top of them.
 
The site has also spawned or acquired more than 50 sister sites such as FAIL Blog, Know Your Meme, Memebase and The Daily What since 2007.
 
“We’re not just seen as a cat website company. We have been a humor destination for people around the world,” Mashable quoted Huh’s wife Emily, the editor of Cheezburger, as saying in a recent interview.
 
But Mashable also said that while entertaining, the site can also get serious.
 
Last Jan. 18, its sites “went black” to protest the Stop Online Piracy Act and Protect IP Act. — TJD, GMA News
