  The Anna Nicole Show - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was cancelled in February 2004 due to low ratings, though some insiders cited "creative differences." The show purported to be a realistic depiction of day-to-day life for Smith, but was at least partially scripted and found her participating in situations clearly contrived by the show's production team.
The show starred Smith, who at the time of filming was considerably fatter than when she had been a Playboy Playmate.
Smith's behaviour on the show often led to speculation that she was abusing drugs and/or alcohol.

 Stranger in a strange land | Salon.com
Anna Nicole Smith is a parody of a blond bombshell in a parody of a TV show.
The show is a mere half-hour old and we've already watched in slack-jawed amazement as she humps beds, roots through a stranger's refrigerator, crawls out to the edge of the diving board of a house she can't afford and calls it a day early so that she can go home and masturbate.
Anna Nicole has gotten a lot of mileage out of the ridiculous bombshell persona perfected by Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield, a persona that would not be funny without a certain type of reception.

 Anna Nicole Smith - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anna Nicole Smith was born in Houston, Texas.

 The Anna Nicole Show Fan Site: Episode 1
Anna Nicole Smith is a fantasy figure, a mythological icon, but this series has cannily chosen to focus on how such a larger-than-life individual fits into the real world.
The Anna Nicole caricature is very plus-sized, not "idealized" as a slender figure, and she is wearing a red dress similar to the legendary gown she wore to the 1994 Oscars, which has become a key part of her iconography.
Anna Nicole is much more taken with the second house, which she attacks like a 200-pound Goldilocks: she raids the fridge, she tries out the beds, she sits fully clothed in the bathtub.

Anna Nicole Smith was born Vicki Lynn Hogan on November 28th, 1967, in Houston, Texas.
Regardless, Anna (who then used several pseudonyms such as Nikki and Robin, before finally sticking to Anna Nicole) was discovered by a photographer, and quickly realized that she could use her body as a career tool.
Although Anna Nicole now looks great, she no longer has a TV audience: The Anna Nicole Show was canceled in 2004, but we're confident that she'll have other projects on her plate soon enough.

 CNN.com - Anna Nicole Smith show an obscene train wreck - August 5, 2002
The debut of ''The Anna Nicole Show'' was preceded by a two-hour ''E! True Hollywood Story'' profiling Anna Nicole Smith, following her rise to semifame as a voluptuous model and then her descent into courtrooms, where she has fought for half the fortune of her late, multimillionaire husband, J. Howard Marshall.
It was a depressing saga, mostly because it documented the desperation of a young Texan woman to become rich, famous, and happy, very nearly attaining her goal, but who has now ended up an unhappy figure of E! ridicule.
Throughout, Smith talked in a slurry moan; since there were framing shots that showed her speaking in a clear manner, it was impossible not to believe that during the house-hunting filming, she must have been under some sort of sedation.

The show is basically Anna Nicole and her life, as odd as it is.
These reality shows can't be expected to contain the same level of audio as a scripted show can since most of the audio comes from the microphones strapped to their bodies.
Someone described the show as a train wreck that you can't look away from, and it is! I only meant to watch one episode, then go and do something else but I went through the first disc, and part of the second, before I had to stop and go to bed.

 Rod Dreher on The Anna Nicole Show & Reality TV on National Review Online
For the past few years, Anna's life has been a tabloid bonanza involving allegations of drug use, multiple cosmetic surgeries, boozing, binge-eating, and kinky derring-do, including a sexual-harassment suit filed by a former female assistant who accused the blonde bombshell of forcing her into lesbian love slavery.
Widowhood has not been kind to our Anna, who has packed on a significant amount of weight, which wouldn't be quite so noticeable if she didn't insist on wearing skintight jeans and a tragically skimpy pink blouse.
Anna Nicole is tawdry and sad, the Osbournes pathetic and depressing, but this upcoming crew are a different breed of limelit grotesques: they're professionals, baby, and they're ready for their close-up, Mr.

BTW, the show that Anna went on (that apparently wouldn't allow E! to film) looked to me (through the blur of the monitor when Kimmy and ass't hangers on were having pizza) to be Regis and Kelly.

 DVD Talk > Reviews > Anna Nicole Show - First Season
Anna Nicole Smith is little better than a hustler making the most of a notoriety based on the dictionary definition of Golddigging.
She includes moments of supposed sadness before the ashes of her late husband, as if the show were intended for use in court proceedings to paint her as devoted wife and not a gravewatching ghoul.
The most creative part of the show is the clever, attractive animated title sequence that tries to spin Anna as a right-on woman making her way through a tough world.

 The Anna Nicole Show-Volume 1 (2002)
While I'd never seen an episode before, this is what motivated me to pick The Anna Nicole Show off the review pile - everyone who'd seen the show described it as a train wreck, and it had all the elements that made The Osbournes a reality TV classic.
Unfortunately it also shows us Smith, who staggers around appearing severely overmedicated, self-centred and profoundly unaware that a world continues to operate where she is not directly involved in it.
Her petulance leads to expectations that everyone near her show obeisance, to the point that she demands her 'friends' have her image tattooed onto them and that they call her 'mama'.

Anna, looking downright subtle in non-blue eye shadow, faces the camera and says that people always ask her about her childhood.
Anna, no longer speaking forcefully and back in her trademark blue eye shadow, says languidly that when she was little, she never went to the dentist, and only started going in her twenties.
Anyway, Anna tells the backseat cameraman that her teeth are "all grinded down to the nerve" and now she "can't eat hardly." Then her pants burst into flames, and she asks to go sit on a telephone wire.

In a way the show is a bit depressing, as the viewer debates who the biggest loser is: Anna or her hangers-on.
But the "hook" for this show is both Anna Nicole's weight, her inability to dress age appropriate, her slurred speech, and her whining.
The E! Channel wisely found some bottom-flogging low-level-waste fading celeb to build a show around and caught Anna between court appearances when she was trying to grab some dollars from her richest and deadest table dance.
