Review: Deion & Pilar Prime Time Love

The New York Times has a pretty hilarious review of Deion Sanders’ new reality series Deion & Pilar: Prime Time Love, where the former pro-athlete’s parenting and marital inadequacies are on display, proving the guy’s home field advantage is pretty much non-existent.

Living on a hundred plus acres in the suitably named Prosper, Tex., Mr. Sanders and his wife, Pilar, a former model-actress, argue about chores and child rearing. In him you are meant to see your own lovable lug, but the conceit is a total canard. While your husband may not be able to tell the difference between a box of Cascade and a box of cake flour, he also hasn’t put you up in a 40,000-square-foot house with a video arcade and a marital bed that looks like a large pie.

What makes “Prime Time Love” such a hoot isn’t merely the image of a grown man too lazy to walk to the kitchen, but also the even more preposterous idea that someone married to the one person ever to play in both the Super Bowl and the World Series would expect an equitable division of household labor.
