Golf Channel Digs Deep Into 'America'

(Caution: Control volume!)
Put away your pitchforks, golf purists.
The Golf Channel isn't going to make a mockery of your game with its new series, "Golf in America", as hosted by B-List comic actor Anthony Anderson.

Initially, I was put off by the notion of Anderson starring in a show brought to you by the producers of "The Haney Project: Charles Barkley". As if we need more vaudevillian antics around the tee box, right?
But, aside from the abysmal tailoring of Anderson's glen plaid slacks in the preview episode, the series (airing in full, starting June 21) doesn't look half bad. So have no fear tuning in for a glimpse at celebrities, courses, icons and over-achievers as you've never seen them before.
