It looks a case of once bitten, twice shy, as streaming fans say they'll refuse to watch Jake and Logan Paul's long-awaited 'fight' after seeing the trailer. Of course, we knew it was too good to be true. Instead of committing to the much-hyped brother versus brother fight, the controversial Paul brothers instead announced they're releasing their own reality TV series. Following in the footsteps of the Hogans and the Osbournes, the brothers will headline Paul American.
As well as saying they'll be more controversial than ever, the big pull is undoubtedly Jake's promise that we'll get to learn more about his November 2024 fight against Mike Tyson. With many accusing the boxing content creator of 'fixing' the fight, it should at least be interesting to find out more about what went down in and out of the ring.
Still, with only 50,000 people tuning into the Instagram Live revealing Paul American to the world, it might be a worrying sign of what's to come.
When the first trailer dropped, there was a largely negative reaction, with many saying they won't be turning in on March 27.
The chaotic trailer includes breasts, boxing, and (obviously) brothers. They refer to themselves as 'villains and bad guys', and saying they don't care about the haters, they know their family will have their back.

Over on X, one angry critic grumbled: "Not one person will be watching this 'reality show'."
Another added: "This is gonna be ass🔥🔥," and a third chimed in saying, "I speak for literally everyone when I say we will not be watching this clown show."
A particularly scathing comment concluded: "The Paul brothers are exact type of people who would do a reality show 😭."
The Paul brothers at least have confidence in their brand, hyping Paul American with exactly the kind of gusto you'd expect. Sadly, it doesn't seem that everyone is sharing that enthusiasm.

Jake Paul refer to himself as 'un-cancellable' in the trailer, but if some these viewers have anything to do with it, Paul American won't be back for season 2.
