FishBowl's Di Bona, Gersh, Levison and Beth Greenwald and Shaq Entertainment's Perry Rogers, Colin Smeeton and Mike Parris will serve as executive producers, along with Mike Gibbons (Tosh.0).

"Shaquille O'Neal has such a great personality, and he really has a lot of fun with the format and the material in this new truTV series," said Marc Juris, executive vice president and chief operating officer of truTV. "We're really excited to be working with Shaq and the outstanding production team. This show is going to be a great fit with truTV's comedic shows like Impractical Jokers and the upcoming Killer Karaoke."

"I've been a fan of truTV for a long time and I look forward to working with my good friends Gary Owen and Godfrey. I've always tried to entertain people and I know this show will deliver big laughs," said Shaquille O'Neal.

"Our creative team, headed by Susan Levison, developed a unique show that showcases Shaquille's sense of humor, and his ability to identify the most outrageous videos online."
