Its from PWI via a board. I have no link. Disbelieve if you wish.
The latest updates on the planned Mick Foley sitcom where he plays an exaggerated version of himself and his life is that Joey Kola, a comic who has done a lot of TV work, is now attached to play the role of Foley's agent 'Barry Blumenthal'. That's obviously a nod to Foley's real agent Barry Bloom.
The show will be called "Have a Nice Day" and is being shopped around and there's hopes SpikeTV would be interested since Foley is part of TNA and it could play into the network's corporate synergy. The production company is currently trying to nail some sort of female name actress down for the role of Nicole, who would be Foley's wife on the project (as opposed to his real wife, Collette) to have some sort of dynamic between this chubby average Joe guy and a hot wife.
Former adult star Christy Canyon will be playing an exaggerated version of herself as Mick's next door neighbor. Foley has written about his affinity for Canyon in his autobiographies. Canyon will be a regular on the prospective series but won't have a lot of lines.
Scripts for the series are being written and there's talk of doing an episode around MMA with cameos from legitimate fighters.
