What a break for Green

After breaking two of his ribs during a fishing accident in Costa Rica and missing the chance to commemorate this great feat or the recovery afterwards, Tom Green is planning not to miss a golden opportunity that seems to have fallen from heaven. Last week he was filming a skateboard segment for his show and broke his leg in the process, and he certainly sees this as a chance for some attention. He has been experimenting for some time now with a 24-hour internet TV network, and his audience is continuously growing. Basically it is a live show airing at odd hours, featuring Green, his pet parrot, plus an occasional guest, responding to live calls. It is simulcast at tomgreen.com.

Call it entertainment or call it pulling a `Green`, he once again would like to take viewers into the mystery which is his body. In the past, while fighting with the cancer disease, he allowed cameras to broadcast his medical procedure and now plans to film an operation on his broken leg for his online talk show. Footage of his operation will be shown on www.maniatv.com and www.tomgreen.com, which both broadcast "Tom Green Live" and have the footage of Green breaking his leg. What fun.
