Quote:Andrew Dice Clay is returning to television, courtesy of VH 1.
In the VH1 series, 'Dice Undisputed', viewers will get an up close and personal look into the highs and lows of his personal and professional life as he fights to get back on top.
The show is scheduled to premiere on Sunday, March 4 at 10:30 pm. VH1 has picked up 7 episodes of the half-hour series.
Dice's controversial macho image often collides with his real family life as the man behind all the limericks and leather tries to find a balance between being a devoted father of two teenage sons (already 11 and 16 - where did the time go?), as well as dealing with a busted marriage, juggling a relationship with his strong willed ex-wrestler fiancee Eleanor (!) and facing the challenges of middle age.
Also thrown into the fray is his posse of friends and road crew, otherwise known as his "dysfunctional, middle-aged entourage".
Clay is also writing a book, cutting a record and producing his own Sirius radio show.

Quote:Andrew Dice Clay made a career out of being the most outrageous comic of his time. Before Chappelle, before South Park, Dice was shocking audiences - breaking the rules with a never-before-seen style of hardcore comedy.
His rise to fame was meteoric - with sold-out arenas, platinum albums, and starring roles in films and TV specials. His fall was just as epic
- blackballed by the industry and becoming the man to hate by every PC group in the country.
He calls himself the Rocky of Comedy, and now this heavyweight king of comedy is coming out of retirement to train for the greatest career move yet.
Dice is attempting what no comic has ever tried - to perform to a sell-out crowd in Giants Stadium. He's pulling out all the stops, attempting a multi-media blitz - getting his own radio show, writing a book, cutting a record, and trying to play the kinds of arena crowds that made him a legend. It's a tough road, but he wouldn't have it any other way.
And he's not alone in this quest. Dice's posse of friends and road crew are a loveable band of misfits. This "dysfunctional, middle-aged entourage" has been in Andrew's inner circle since the 80's -- offering unwanted advice, messing up his plans, and offering the kind of shaky support that makes you appreciate why Dice gets so angry. But they keep his life on the edge of comedy -- from Wheels, his ever-dieting lug of a buddy, to Todd, his quirky road manager, to "Happy Face" his stone-faced ninja body guard, to Uncle Lee, his doting mentor who spouts sagely advice at the drop of a hat.
Dice is a new take on celebreality, combining a real Rocky story with an original comic voice. Dice's mission to get back in the game is sometimes exhilarating, sometimes a train wreck, always honest. And you've just got to watch.
