SDT, Torres to be subject of TLC reality show
SDT Waste and Debris Services owner Sidney Torres IV will be the focus of a reality show for cable network TLC that will film a pilot episode in October.
The pilot, filmed by San Francisco-based Hoff Productions, will focus on Torres as he leads his company through cleanup operations at the Voodoo Music Experience Halloween weekend, Hoff Productions director of programming Ashley Adams said.
“We’re going to be here for a week following Sidney and his guys,” Adams said. “The mission is Voodoo Fest and cleaning up the streets, and obviously it’s going to be a huge weekend for them.”
Adams said the pilot episode will focus on Torres, his immediate family and five of his closest associates, all of whom have unique appeal to viewers across the nation.
“You know, they’re great characters,” she said. “Sidney will be the main focus but we’re going to follow his whole crew.”
The final air dates for the episode have not yet been determined, Adams said.•
