This would have been better without the hitman story


Really, I thought the CIA story line was the least interesting part. This could have stood on its own as a story about the guy who invented trash tv.

Chuck Barris claims to have been a CIA hitman. If you look up chuck barris, my life on the edge, he claims it as well as in one of his books. He is either super loopy...or he murdered people during newlywed outings :)

Yes, I know about Barris' book and what he said. I'm just saying the hitman story was not as interesting as the story about him and his TV career. Ironic, since I would guess he made up the hitman story to make his life story seem more interesting.
