ORIGINAL REALITY SERIES DUSSAULT INC. GOES TO HOLLYWOOD
WITH STAR-STUDDED SEASON 2 ON THE BIO CHANNEL, JAN. 14

• Jason and Mashiah move to Los Angeles in the second season of Dussault Inc.
• Celebrity guest stars include Steve Nash, Dave Navarro, Vivica A. Fox, Lou Ferrigno, Verne Troyer, Puddle of Mud, Matt Sorum, and more

All’s fair in love and war – and after an intense and turbulent first season – Jason and Mashiah continue their tumultuous on-again, off-again relationship in the dramatic Season 2 of the Biography Channel’s original reality series Dussault Inc. Premiering Saturday, Jan. 14 at 7:30pm ET/PT on BIO, each of the 16 half-hour episodes follows Jason and Mashiah as they make a fresh start in the Hollywood Hills. With new relationships, new aspirations and a long list of new problems, the two must work even harder to raise their family and fulfill their goals – without killing each other.

Starting fresh in Los Angeles, Jason and Mashiah are putting everything on the line to get what they want this season. While Mashiah begins focusing on herself, connecting with a new Hollywood social circle – including old pal Mark Wahlberg – and launching her acting career, Jason aims to revive the buzz around his streetwise brand by hanging with Gene Simmons and designing custom items for the celebrity set. Although they are no longer a couple, Jason and Mashiah can’t seem to stay apart. Their finances and family situation remain intertwined as they try and raise their kids. Both pretend the other is free to do as they please, but it’s obvious their chemistry – and their jealousies – are simmering under the surface. This season, their main dilemma is turned on its head – the question is when and if they will get back together.

In the premiere episode, “Hollywood or Bust,” actress Vivica A. Fox convinces Mashiah to move to Los Angeles to pursue her acting career. Jason, wanting to be with the kids and win Mashiah back, joins them in L.A. But first, he must find someone to run the Dussault Apparel headquarters in Vancouver. Meanwhile, Ayden has a hard time adjusting to California and being away from his friends until he discovers the joys of surfing.

Dussault Inc. is executive produced by David Paperny, Cal Shumiatcher, Audrey Mehler and Ziad Touma, who also directs the series. Claire Freeland is the Director of Original Programming for Rogers Media.

Want to give picking a try for yourself? Here are Scott and Sheldon’s rules for picking:

1. Buy what you love.
2. Buy the best quality you can afford.
3. Always check condition (Chips, cracks, repairs, restoration).
4. Buy the best original condition (rather than restored).
5. Buy what was made in small numbers at the time.
6. Keep track of what was loved by the generation or generations before you (Christmas, Mickey Mouse etc.). If every new generation loves it, those items will always be popular.
7. Watch trends to see what may be collectible in the future (Lego, Transformers etc).
8. Group to reduce the price per item.
9. Sell when the time is right (e.g. sell your Lord of the Rings books when the movie comes out). You can always get it again (two years after the movie comes out for half price)!
10. Always carry enough cash.
