The search is on for Toronto's version of this (Image: MTV)
Break out the bronzer, put on the Ed Hardy cap and practise those duck lips in the bathroom mirror, because Toronto is getting its own version of MTV’s runaway hit, the National Geographic–worthy documentary Jersey Shore. Or so we think. According to a casting call on Craigslist, the show will be called Tdot, and it’s currently looking for “outspoken, outstanding, over the top, attractive females and males of Iranian ethnicity over the age of 19,” or as the ad simply states, Persian princes and princesses.
So much for diversity. We assume the casting agents are looking for 905ers who hang around the club district and zoom around in souped-up Honda Civics blasting techno music. The guys wear sunglasses at night and white Aldo loafers with square toes, while the women wear mini–jersey dresses and walk awkwardly in heels when it’s snowing. But for the record, we’ve seen people of every racial background partake in these fashion crimes, which is what makes Toronto so great.

come on! that craigslist post screams hoax: a gmail address as a contact who is “Sunrise multimedia productions”? i’m willing to bet they haven’t made anything bigger than a youtube video.

April 14, 2010 at 12:14 pm | by nickiHello all,
‘Tdot’ is a working title, and the show will have ‘intellectual’ personalities as well as characters similar to what is seen in Jersey Shore.
Sunrise Multimedia is a young dynamic production company based in Montreal, which is currently expanding to Toronto. They have worked with many clients overseas up until 2009, and have over the past four years worked with clients based in Montreal area. Their productions include: commercials, music video’s, wed designs/graphics, high end luxury photo shoot and more.
If you are interested in this show, and would like to be a part of it, please send us a massage at Info@sunrisemultimedia.ca
