Very early in this first episode of Rock of Love 2 with Bret Michaels, Big John lays down the formula for the show. Everything you need for a great season is in the following steps:
1. Bring the noise.
2. Bring the barrel full of Bret's Brew.
(No, really. It's called Bret's Brew.)
3. Bring the mess.
4. Bring the swing.
Lather, rinse, repeat. Hold the lather, actually. Soap has no place in this house.

Welcome to our coverage of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew! To recap the episodes, we'll be running an interview series every week, which will allow Dr. Drew to delve further into the episode's main points and issues. After the jump is our first installment, in which Dr. Drew gives us his initial impressions of each of the Rehabbers.

We just got finished watching the first episode of Rock of Love 2 and it seems like the girls are wild enough to easily fill the shoes of their predecessors. Well, they'll fill the DD bras of their predecessors any rate. We don't want to give too much away before the season premiere (Sunday at 9/8c), but here a few a few tidbits to whet your appetite:
- There's a big surprise right before all the girls enter the house, and an even bigger surprise during the elimination ceremony.
- Something rather...consuming causes one of the girls to miss the elimination ceremony.
- One girl reveals that to her, the letters "VIP" stand for something more...vaginally oriented.
- Remember the divide between the "slutty" girls and the "bitchy" girls that became apparent during the second episode last season? It's there again and it's apparent almost immediately.
- One of the girls is a swinging bisexual who announces, "If I'm not getting it from Bret, then I'm gonna go find some hot girl to make out with."
- One of the girls is French.
- One of the girls is 45!
- One of the girls is a germaphobe and, as such, could be the most misguided individual to ever enter the ...of Love universe.
- Case and point: Bret makes out at least a dozen times during the course of the one-hour premiere. Here's one girl's imitation:
And all of that is to say that the faces may have changed, but the hassles are just the same.
Are. You. Ready. To. Rock?
Clearly, Bret is.
You may know Dr. Drew Pinsky from radio and MTV's Loveline, or from CNN's Strictly Sex With Dr. Drew, or from his writing and research. Or you may know him just as that hot guy who knows, like, everything about everything. He's bringing his expertise as an addictionologist to VH1 via Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, a new Celebreality show that debuts Thursday, Jan. 10 at 10/9c. The series chronicles the substance-abuse rehabilitation of eight celebrities (Brigitte Nielsen, Mary Carey, Jeff Conway, Chyna Doll, Jessica Sierra, Seth "Shifty" Binzer, Jaimee Foxworth and Daniel Baldwin). If you think this sounds like a trainwreck sliding your way...well, you may be surprised to find how quiet, reflective and sensitive the show actually is.
But don't take our word for it. After the jump, Dr. Drew talks about the conception of the show, the treachery of treating famous people and why drug addicts are funny.
I Love New York 2 couldn't have gone out with a bigger bang if...well, if it had included things not suitable for TV. You know, like actual banging (although Sister Patterson came close!). I can think of no better way to end the series than with 90 theatrical minutes of Jerry Springer-esque insanity. To help make sense of it all, I've assembled my10 favorite things that happened during the course of the reunion. Let's jump right into it and start, funnily enough, at the begging.
10. Those Amazing Intros
For some guys, the half-second that they're shown on screen as their name is announced is the extent of their appearance on the show. By now, they know to make it count.
For example, It's way of saying hello was classic It.
This is, like, It's default expression at this point. It's his child's pose, his first position, his buffalo stance.
20 Pack made sure to permanently erase our memories of his insane body that earned him his nickname in the first place with the most minor of changes.
Abs? What abs? All I remember is a blonde streak. He should change his name to 20 Volume after the peroxide he used.
But the best thing about this?
The most enterprising chance to make a first impression was undoubtedly taken by Yours.
He looks so happy with that rubber-band bound stack of money that I think it's a travesty that La La didn't call him and his cash to the stage and ask how they met. But then, you know, the cash would probably have produced a gift box with its divorce papers inside, thereby stealing New York's final-act thunder and we could not have that, now could we?

We mentioned it last week, but just in case you missed it, Charm School winner and Flavor of Love 2 alum Saaphyri has launched her line of lip balm dubbed Lip Chap (duh). It's available in five flavors, including Mojito and Piña Colada. Who needs alcohol when you have Lip Chap? For the follicly challenged (and not so much), she also just launched her line of Indian hair. She talked about both projects recently on Becky Buckwild's Blog Talk Radio show (check the Dec. 23 episode). Did you know that you can give a dog extensions? It's true, Saaphyri says so. Also revealed is the fact that Lip Chap is unisex (for boys, girls, girlish boys and boyish girls, says its creator). But most importantly, it's guaranteed to keep you from beating a bitch's ass.
