Rad Girls was a stunt and prank television show which aired on the music network Fuse TV and then on MAVTV. The show's format was essentially a female version of MTV's Jackass , with three female performers: Ramona Cash, Munchie, and Darling Clementine, doing stunts and pranks that involve disgusting food, bodily excretions, and debauchery. [1]
According to the trio's MySpace page, Fuse decided to change format to exclusively music-based programming, thus not renewing Rad Girls for a second season. Over 4,000 ardent fans of Rad Girls signed an online petition ("Bring Back the Rad Girls!") to get the show back on the air, but their contract with Fuse ended in February 2008. Rad Girls Season 2 premiered on November 7, 2008 on MavTV, an HD network oriented towards male viewers.
The program has also aired internationally, on five continents: Australia (XYZ Networks), New Zealand (C4 New Zealand), Canada (Alliance Atlantis Broadcasting Inc.), UK (MTV Networks Europe), South Africa (M-Net), Brazil (Globosat), and Korea (Dong ah TV). [2]
