Ryan O'Neal makes a deal for his and Farrah's junkie son to walk out of prison and into a reality television show


Father of The Year Ryan O'Neal must be hellbent on getting his and Farrah Fawcett's son Redmond off drugs and on the straight and narrow. The man who took over Farrah's cancer documentary after her health worsened, and with the help of producers from NBC Dateline turned it into a morbid soap opera in which he had a starring role, has reportedly brokered a deal for Redmond to begin filming a reality television series as soon as he's sprung from prison.

And yes, Ryan O'Neal will be a costar.

The show reportedly will chronicle 24-year-old Redmond as he struggles with addiction-- which is about all the kid has done for most of his life. Filming will supposedly begin in four months, as soon as he's released from the prison where he’s serving time for narcotics possession and bringing narcotics into a jail facility.

Ryan O'Neal, who was arrested with Redmond last September for methamphetamine possession, will be remembered for helping engineer the scene in Farrah's Story in which Redmond was brought from prison in leg shackles to visit his semi-comatose mother and climb into her deathbed with her. According to the official story, junkie Redmond is doing the reality show to honor his mother's memory.

Farrah died on June 25th at age 62.

Redmond inherited most of her estate. Supposedly, he only gets the money is he remains sober. We don't know where the money goes if he dies.
