Flower Power

We're counting the days until Monday, when World of Wonder's new show, The Arrangement, launches on Logo. Airing at 11PM, the flower-arranging elimination show, in which contestants are "weeded out" each week, is ideal for night-bloomers. It's hosted by Gigi Levangie Grazer, author of The Starter Wife, and the head judge is Eric Buterbaugh, whose clients at his Beverly Hills Four Seasons florist shop are Paul McCartney, Demi Moore, and Madonna. Not your usual reality show, there will be "naked bodies, chainsaws, rock 'n' roll, and hazmat suits," says executive producer Randy Barbato. "It's not your mother's floral arranging show, unless she is a real mutha." The show takes place not in a studio but in a working flower shop, says co-executive producer Scott Shatsky. "The contestants already have solid careers and expertise in floral design as opposed to people who are trying to make their mark. Every episode will have an oh-no-he-didn't moment. Sabotage, crocodile tears and spitting venom, you will see it all." Among the guest judges lined up are Antonio Sabato Jr, former Miss USA Shanna Moakler, and RuPaul.
