Antoine Dodson of “Bed Intruder” To Get His Own TV Show http://mashable.com/2011/...wn-tv-show 2 hours ago by Jolie O'Dell
Antoine Dodson, whose claim to fame lies in the viral video “Bed Intruder,” has been given the opportunity to shoot a reality television show pilot.
The show will center around Dodson and his family as they move across the country from their housing project in Alabama to Hollywood and around Dodson’s desire to “leveraging every aspect he can to make a better life for his family,” according to producer Entertainment One. The producers may also consider issuing a musical offering from Dodson in the future.
For anyone who’d not yet seen the video, Bed Intruder is essentially an auto-tuned and amusingly edited clip featuring Dodson as he expresses outrage over the attempted rape of his sister in their home in the Lincoln Park Projects. In spite of the macabre topic and setting, millions of YouTube viewers have found Dodson’s take on the situation refreshing, hilarious and even empowering. In fact, “Bed Intruder” was the most-watched independent video of 2010. The clip currently has 67.5 million views.
Dodson recently made an appearance at the Mashable Awards in Las Vegas, where he accepted the award for Best Internet Meme and previewed a follow-up.
Of his newfound fame, Dodson told Mashable’s Adam Ostrow, “This will never get old!”
Check out the full interview below, and in the comments, let us know if you think Dodson has the makings of an entertaining, watchable TV entertainer.

I am so happy for him. I feel special because I am one of his special juddies (he called his fans or friends that). He went through a lot of shit in his life and so has his family, and I am so happy all the good things that are coming toward his way. And also his mother recently have health issues as she have type one diabetes and she was facing with the possibility of having her leg cut off but she was able to get a leg replacement and she is walking again thanks to his fame. Say what yall want to say about him but he using this fame to help his family and he is a sweet person just dont get on his bad side lol. He just moved to West Hollywood. He could have got a cheaper place yet safer place in the LA area like in Studio City or something but hey whatever floats his boat. His family as I heard will move out there for the reality show. I will watch and the people who say they wont watch it I bet they will at least one episode. | |

Oh god I can't take her. Not even a lil' bit.
Wanting to better your family's life is commandable tho. I do hope he uses these opportunities wisely.
