"Access Hollywood" won't cover her (much). "It's gross," Billy Bush says. But pop culture won't be finished with Nadya Suleman anytime soon. There's the probable -- and probably inevitable -- reality show, which is slated to start production soon, though it hasn't found a U.S. network home. And if you really can't wait, next week, Fox will air a two-hour special, "Octomom: The Incredible Unseen Footage"-- featuring film of the babies shot, practically from the moment of birth, by RadarOnline.

It's certain to be extremely classy. And probably irresistable - the more so because Suleman has become so easy to judge. She's not just a hardworking family woman struggling with tons of kids. She's a kvetch, a mess, a cause for concern, and if we watch, it will be to tsk, not to cheer. The special airs Wednesday, August 19 at 8 p.m. Will you tune in?
