MTV is going to air DJ AM's Show


Gone Too Far is the MTV show that Adam Goldstein, aka DJ AM, had just finished filming at the time of his death.  It features Goldstein stages interventions on drug addicts to help them recover.  Since he did overdose with a mix of crack and prescriptions he needed an intervention himself.  MTV says that they have the support of Goldstein's family.  I think it's gross.  It's a rating ploy.

That said, it will be watched.  America loves a train wreck and this is one of spectacular proportions.  The recovered drug addict helping people get into recovery falls into a downward spiral of drug addiction himself and ends up dead.  People will be watching for the first hint that there's something wrong, talking about it, it will be huge, and exploitive.  The series consists of 8 episodes.
