Mama June boots Crazy Tony

Eccentric 'cousin' clipped from 'Honey Boo Boo' after drunken gorilla stunt

Chances are, if your nickname is "Crazy" Tony Lindsey, you're either part of a mob family or an extended member of TLC's Shannon/Thompson clan. In Lindsey's case, it's the latter, although he won't be appearing on "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" any time soon, thanks to a slight legal snafu in late November. 

Bing: "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" | Mama June

As you may recall, Honey Boo Boo Child's (née Alana Thompson) "cousin" Tony -- Lindsey isn't actually blood-related -- was busted after drunkenly jumping in front of moving cars while outfitted in a gorilla suit, one of them being a police vehicle. This has not apparently sat well with Mama June, who's doing her best to raise and broadcast a respectable Southern family and tells TMZ that Tony is no longer welcome on set.
 
 
"We love him as a friend, but that was a crazy story," she says, adding, "Not trying to be mean, but we want to keep it family oriented." 

For his part, Lindsey responded to TMZ by saying, "TV's changed that family." Well, yeah, it's made them rich, and they don't want you screwing that up, ya big ape.

"Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. ET/PT on TLC.

P.S.  Where is the humane society to check on the Welfare of the animals that these people have ?

They don't even take care of themselves, never mind their animals. Please check on the Welfare of these animals.

This family is crazy, they are white trash if I had small children I would not let them watch Honey Boo Boo if she was the last television show ever. She is nothing but a spoiled foul mouth brat, that has no manners and eats like an animal. The whole family is obnosious. This is truly what you call White Trash. I am sure there are more like them. But there is no reason anyone needs to watch this program. Watching this could make your children think this is all exceptable in our society.

 

I cannot understand why TLC has a program like this, there has to be some in-breeding in this family. I do like reality shows like Big Brother, Biggest Loser, Bachelor and no NOT the Kardashians thats another NO talent family, but Honey Boo Boo they are one disgusting family, the mother does not even know how to clean her house, completely loud & trashy, why would anyone let their children watch this program, it will only teach them to not take care of themselves or their belongings,  the house is so messy, they eat food with their hands everything you would not want your kids to do.

 

MaMa June needs to start serving her family some healthy meals and do some exercise to make them look healthy and not so fat, dirty and sloppy looking. I know people in the south, they are nothing like this family, so it is not because they are southern, its because they just don't care. Children are very impressionable, this is not a program you want them to learn from.

 

So if you find your children watching Boo Boo, turn the channel.

 

I am very disappointed at TLC a ( learning channel ) to show such trash to our kids. Shame on Them.

Ok, we all have opinions about the family, what about the animals?  They have had a poor little pig, who was lugged around in blankets and had crowns put on it and "nails" painted.  Now they have a little chicken that is wrapped in blankets, screaming in it's ear (yes, chickens have ears) and chasing it around.  None of the people there seem to know how to appropriately hold/care for these "pets".  I feel sorry for the animals (I wonder if the outside dog has ever had flea treatment, necessary vaccines, etc).  If you're calling CPS, you should call the Humane Society as well.
ALSO, what about the episode of eating the raw collard greens with RAW pork.......!!!!!  It's a wonder these people are still alive eating some of the things they do, they must have some super immune systems!

The whole family should be banned. All Mama June has done is exploit and spoil her daughter, Alana,  (Honey Boo Boo). Just watching the commercials promoting the show is enough to steer me clear of that God awful mess! If that was the only thing you could watch on TV, I would give up watching TV and read a good book!

I love this show.  It is great to see people that are real people.  This is a family that loves each other.  I wish them all the success they can have and I applaud all of their efforts to support local charities and their support of the anti-bullying campaign.  Maybe some of you should look at what you wrote and realize you have a distinguishable bent toward being a bully.

Reality TV shows like this are crap. I can't even watch TV anymore since most of the shows are reality TV. Which really isn't reality since it is all set up anyways. Do the world a favor and do this show in. Enough is enough already. Watching this stuff makes me feel like I have the mental capability of G.W. Bush. Just dumb.

I think the whole lot of them are crazy and should be institutionalized. Who watches this shitty show anyway?

I am from Georgia and you can rest a sure we do not act nor look like the Honey Boo Boo family, I have not seen anything funny, nor educational about this show.It is a disgrace to the human race. June setting there wiping snot and sneezing and that language they allow their children to use is just not acceptable.I suggest they take all of them off because its HORRIBLE.

I am glad that this family is making an income, but I am so sorry for this little girl.  She is becoming more obnoxious rather than quirky which is why attention was drawn to her in the first place.  She will crash and burn when this ends.

I have to admit, I watched one episode of this show.  I could not believe that they had subtitles during the show.  Looking back, I am glad they did subtitle the show but why?!?  I was just kind of horrified that this kind of show was actually on TLC, The Learning Channel.  These 'reality shows' have got to go.  I do not consider myself some 'hater' trust me, this is not entertainment.  Watching people that have to have subtitles on the screen as they allegedly speak English is sad, very sad.  Has anyone seen or heard about these children attending school?  But people keep watching these shows, one train wreck type scenario after another.  It's hard to remember the days that I actually enjoyed watching television where people were actually required to write a dialogue, other real paid actors performed, and the public was entertained.  In the words of the song from All in the Family, 'Those Were the Days.'  Sorry to see those days long gone.

The whole "show" should be banned! What kind of in-bred troglodytic parasite would watch it, anyway?

The show is awful and should be pulled off the air. This is the learning channel....huh? Just what are we suppose to learn.? They maybe loving people, but what they portray is not what the south is about. I personally can't stand the show. It is a waste of time and someone's money!!

I see lots of comments about how trashy these shows are. Why watch them if you find them so offensive? I never watch reality shows because there is nothing real about them.

 

America, let's get off our butts and do something productive instead of sitting in front of the TV watching dumb shows and getting dumber by the minute!
