While we eagerly await Fox's higher budget, more ambitious attempts at pushing the reality-TV envelope this January (we just took the fourth episode for the show's first heart explosion in the Defamer office pool), VH1 will soon be offering the kind of low-grade, humiliation-based programming that will get us to The Moment of Truth's premiere. Fishbowl LA directs us to these promotional "home videos" from the network's upcoming Celebrity Rehab series featuring two of the show's nine C-list guinea pigs (Taxi's Jeff Conaway! A guy from Crazytown we don't recognize!) simulating the destructive, drug-abusing behavior only a team of caring Celebreality producers and their unflinching camera can help them eradicate.
Though you hardly need to travel any further than your boss's office to watch somebody chopping lines, there's still something magical about watching it happen on your television, right after a rerun of Rock of Love.

I can only assume he has a cheeseburger waiting for him on the carpet next to the couch.
Jeff Conaway looks like death warmed over. He was hot in Grease.
ick, just ick!
I have to snort my food like that. It's a long process and it takes weeks to prepare but damn is it worth it!
Don't worry about it Kenickie, it was somebody else's mistake...
Oh, wait... actually in this case, it is your mistake, Kenickie!
Yikes, he looks like some kind of bastard demon spawn of Keith Richards and Mickey Rourke...
"Keep snortin', whoa keep snortin'..."
I'm so sad....
@Sayser: And so very hot on Taxi.
This is miserably sad. Wasn't he clean and born-again a few years ago? Christ.
No snark. Just a resigned sigh.
Wasn't he wasted on "Benadryl" on Celebrity Fit club?
@Steverino: Go coke lighting.
@IBentMyWookie: But I agree. It's a sad state of affairs for the poor gent.
zOMG so depressing...I worked with Jeff a few years ago on a small indie, which I coordinated. Upon his arrival here in Delaware, he made me get him full refills of the Xanax he "forgot" at home and somehow, our local now-Walgreens went for it. He was extremely sweet and needy and totally missed his plane to hang out with our twentysomething little movie crew an extra day, but completely petrified our child actors. At the end of the day, though, his creepy method presence came off the least wooden in the film.
@Tits_LaRue: Agreed. He has that leathery look about him. Maybe it's some kind of natural defense mechanism - kinda like a gourd or suchlike. The outside's naturally dried-out yet watertight, while the inside is 100% proof.
Oh, I feel brotherhood.
He makes snorting Tylenol PM look FUN!
How else are the kids of today going to know how to knock a rail, and slip an 8-ball, before going out to sip GHB at their favorite club? VH1 is doing a tremendous service - and dealers everywhere will be so happy to see their fine work on the small screen...
In other news - Caligula has just picked up his violin...
That little mirror is nifty. Kind of retro but in an unconscious way..
It's just too fucking sad to see Kinicki that way.
Wella wella wella huuh, tell me more, tell me more...
It must be the writer's strike, but I thought that read 'emotional home videos'.
I LOVE WATCHING THE DUDE FROM CRAZYTOWN SMOKE CRACK.
Rap-Rock will be around 4ever!!!
Frankly, I can't believe it's the same guy who used to be so hot- he looks like shit in the same ruined, scary way Mickey Rourke now does.
If they're going to ruin my beeyootiful memories of them, could they please have the decency to slink off to some island to die instead of making us see their shriveled husks?
I don't think I'll be wanting a hickey from Kinickie anytime soon.
@jupiterspaw: I guess that means no dickie from Kenickie for you either?
He kind of looks like Keith Richards from 20 years ago.....not a compliment btw.
He looks like he just shot Manny and is waiting for the Bolivians to storm the mansion.
Where's Alex Reiger when you need him...
i swear it's been years since i've done blow but watching that made my eyes and nose run a little. seriously. weird.
