I read this story in The New York Times...(see below) I guess the new season is ready and it sounds pretty cool. Where is my WALL STREET WARRIORS!? It's my favorite show! I've been waiting for a year to see it! Wall Street Crisis as a Reality Show
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/03/busin ... /SVH75skYQThe producers of the reality TV series “Wall Street Warriors” find themselves in a case of life imitating life.The show documents life on Wall Street by focusing on a handful of traders, brokers and fund managers, and the producers, Sean Skelton and Scott Gill, had a front-row seat as the bottom fell out of the financial markets.“We’ve been capturing a lot of drama lately,” Mr. Skelton said Friday as he was shooting in Manhattan. “We’ve got the backlash of the credit crisis from last year, which we started capturing about halfway through the second season. So things started off bad this year. But about halfway through our season this year, things have gotten really bad with the bank failures and the bailout and the drama.”Then about a month ago, the bottom fell out for “Wall Street Warriors” itself when the high-definition cable channel that has been carrying the show, MOJO-HD, announced that it would cease operations in December.“It happened about the same time” as the markets were diving, Mr. Gill said in a telephone interview from Los Angeles. “I guess it’s somewhat ironic,” he added.But MOJO, which reached only about 10 million homes at its peak, told the team to finish production and promised to work with it to find a new home for the show. “Warriors” reached No. 1 on iTunes in July for downloads of reality television series.“We’ll be done with production in the next four to six weeks,” Mr. Skelton said. “We’ll be done editing the show probably by February or March.”
