Taradise

Encyclopedia : T : TA : TAR : Taradise

Taradise, or Wild On Tara! outside the US, was a half-hour television show hosted by actress/model Tara Reid. The show was centered on Tara's visits to other countries, such as Spain, Greece, Italy, France and Monaco, where she sampled the local cuisine, visited nightclubs, and shopped a bit. The show was part of E!'s lineup, with new episodes premiering Wednesdays at 10 p.m. EST. E! has announced that there will not be a second season of the show because of production complications that arose from the shooting, and according to E! president Ted Harbert, "The show was incredibly difficult to produce with someone well-known".

Taradise was originally supposed to be a new season of E!'s longtime series Wild On..., with Tara as the new host; a week before the season began, E! changed the title to Taradise and re-edited the series as a reality show based around Tara instead of Wild On...'s former format as more of a travelogue show. Though Taradise was a commercial flop, it held a guilty pleasure appeal to many for its candid, on-location scenes of a drunken and increasingly portly Reid, juxtaposed against documentary style commentary scenes of a sober and slimmed down Reid (that were clearly filmed later).

It was cancelled in early October 2005 but is still showing now on E!.
