About Internet Superstar
One after the other, Martin Sargent’s shows—on television, on cell phones, and online—have been brutally cancelled. When his most recent effort, Infected by Martin Sargent, was axed by Revision3 CEO Jim Louderback, Martin finally cracked. At the show’s final taping, Martin doused himself in gasoline and threatened to light his explosive-laden body on fire in desperate protest. Fearing a lawsuit, and that his fleece vest and perfectly coifed, John Edwards-like hair might get singed, Jim Louderback talked Martin down by promising him a new show, but with a major provision: except for the bandwidth, Martin will have to finance the whole thing himself.
And so, with his pal Gator helping out, Martin is setting out to create what he promises will be “the greatest show the Internet has ever seen.”
Because there are no resources, and because Jim Louderback won’t allow Martin to shoot it on Revision3 property, the show is shot in a dilapidated shed in Martin’s mom’s backyard. Most people think that like all of his other shows, this one is doomed to fail. But most people underestimate Martin’s desire. His desire to become an Internet Superstar.
So join Martin and Gator as they invite the online world's most popular, compelling and outrageous characters into the shed to swap stories about what life is like at the top of the online heap.
What life is like as an INTERNET SUPERSTAR.

Martin Sargent
Internationally adored farceur Martin Sargent has been delighting audiences for decades. Sargent got his start in media as a plucky young editor at PC/Computing magazine, and it is generally accepted in publishing circles that the periodical shuttered its operations as a direct result of Sargent’s exodus to pursue television projects. At ZDTV, TechTV and G4TV he hosted shows including The Screen Savers and Unscrewed with Martin Sargent. Since then he has done several pilots for such television powerhouses as Comedy Central and USA Network, and hosted shows on the Internet as well as mobile phones. Every show he has ever hosted or been affiliated with has either been cancelled or, in the case of his pilots, not picked up to begin with. He now hosts Web Drifter on Revision3, as well as Internet Superstar, a show he shoots in a shed in his mom’s backyard with absolutely no funding or support. In a nutshell, his once promising career, which reached its zenith in 2002 when he interviewed Vin Diesel, has utterly shat the bed.
