Do you have Tourette’s syndrome, uncontrollable anger or PICA? Ryan Seacrest Productions is working on a new show that seeks to end life-ruining compulsions, traumas, physical disorders and syndromes.

Have these symptoms hurt you and your family? Do you twitch, stutter, panic, or have outbursts, faint, scream, cry, obsess, eat inedible objects or bite yourself?

Do you have something wrong with your vision, coordination, hearing or anything physical? Does the doctor say that there is nothing physically wrong with you?

Have you or your loved one been to doctor after doctor trying everything to find a cure? We want to help! 
 
Ryan Seacrest is teaming up with world-renowned therapist Paul McKenna to personally help people overcome their life-ruining problems in a progressive new TV series tentatively titled "The Incurables."

The show offers a fascinating look inside the lives of ordinary people whose irrational behavior is so out of control that they are on the verge of a personal crisis.

Each episode features McKenna going into the homes of two ‘incurable’ people with different psychological and/or physical conditions while cameras capture the drama as he works tirelessly and aggressively to save their lives.

McKenna’s unique approach to personal transformation has already cured millions of people, including Ellen Degeneres, Russell Brand, plus top CEOs and royalty. 

Acclaimed Executive Producer of Emmy-winning show “Intervention” Sam Mettler will serve as Executive Producer, along with Ryan Seacrest and Paul McKenna.

Examples may include (but aren't limited to):

TOURETTES/STUTTERING SYNDROMES - Do you scream, shout or stutter 
uncontrollably?

ANGRY OUTBURSTS – Do you have problems controlling your rage? Has 
it gotten you in a lot of trouble?

MEDICAL PROBLEMS - Do you have a medical condition that the doctors 
say is "in your head?"
 
COMPULSIONS - Is your brain making you do something you can’t stop (
ie. PICA)? Do you eat inedible objects?

If your family lives in Los Angeles or in the surrounding areas and has a severe syndrome and feels completely helpless, we may be able to help. If you yourself are identifying with any of these symptoms as well, we hope to hear from you!
Please email us at: helpmecasting@yahoo.com or call our hot line at: 818-983-6196.

Please leave a very detailed message of what the symptoms may be when emailing or leaving a message.
Thank you for reaching out to us.
]]> <![CDATA[Ryan Visits Ronald McDonald House]]> It was all smiles Saturday, when Ryan hosted the Hearts and Hands Gala fundraiser for the Ronald McDonald House in his home town of Atlanta.

Ryan was joined by former finalist Melinda Dolittle for the event, and he also took time to visit with some of the families who benefit from the facility.

Ronald McDonald Houses provide convenient and inexpensive housing near major hospitals so that the families of seriously ill kids can stay nearby.
