George Papadopoulos and his wife Simona Mangiante have signed on to a docuseries, accompanied by a film crew as they navigate their lives post-special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe and Papadopoulos’ brief prison stay.

According to a Tuesday Washington Post report, an Los Angeles production company is heading the effort, which has not yet been picked up by a distributor.

The series is reportedly intended to cover everything from Papadopoulos’ contact with the Trump campaign to his speedy-quick (and some say, suspicious) courtship of and marriage to Mangiante.

  1. Dirty stinking traitor…his life needs to be a living hell. Hope somebody publishes his address so he can eat some public anger. No quarter for traitors.

  2. WTF?? The Apprentice in Drag!!

    Full disclosure: I have never watched a “reality” show in my life.

None of it is ever likely to see the light of day, much less get picked up by any sort of television network.
