Marketing your best asset

I watched the show Hung on HBO and with a title like that you would think this is right up Michi's ally. I love the premise - Guy needs money so he decides to use his best asset - his "Joystick" to help him earn some much needed cash. The kicker is, his pimp is a woman! Not even a rich, socialite looking madam, but a homely spinster looking girl who is using her corporate knowledge to make his asset "flourish."

They meet when taking a Seminar on how to start your own business using your best asset. Ray finally decides, his only asset is his BIG you know what, because the ladies have been telling him so his whole life.

Ray is a very likable guy and you want him to succeed even if he is taking a twist on the oldest industry around. Unfortunately, they have cast Anne Heche as his ex-wife and I find her utterly dull. His two kids are also very hard to like and even thought the show is 30 minutes long I find myself forwarding through the back story. I am teetering on the edge of watching this show again and at the moment it really can go either way.
