August 20, 2024 — Paramount+ today released the official trailer for the new docuseries NÖTHIN' BUT A GOOD TIME: THE UNCENSORED STORY OF ’80S HAIR METAL, and announced the series will premiere September 17 exclusively on the service in the U.S. and Canada and September 18 in additional international Paramount+ markets. Directed by Jeff Tremaine (jackass, The Dirt), the three-part series showcases the notoriously wild ’80s hard rock phenomenon and features interviews with those who lived it, including Bret Michaels, Stephen Pearcy, Nuno Bettencourt, Dave “Snake” Sabo and Riki Rachtman, along with Corey Taylor and Steve-O, among many others.

“I'm honored to be part of this docuseries, named after the hit Poison song 'Nothin' But A Good Time,'” said series star Bret Michaels. “I’m excited for viewers to take a fresh look at the fans and bands, highs and lows, and to celebrate the music and good times of the ’80s and beyond. I hope the audience enjoys it as much as I did, and I can’t wait for them to have insight into some of those notoriously crazy moments!”

Based on the New York Times best-selling book Nöthin’ But a Good Time: The Uncensored History of the ’80s Hard Rock Explosion by esteemed rock journalists Tom Beaujour and Richard Bienstock, the series delivers a fresh and shockingly candid behind-the-scenes look at one of music’s most iconic eras. Each episode showcases the insanity and blazing ambition that has enthralled generations of music lovers and continues to influence culture to this day.

NÖTHIN' BUT A GOOD TIME: THE UNCENSORED STORY OF ’80S HAIR METAL is executive produced by Jeff Tremaine and Shanna Newton for Gorilla Flicks; Eric Wattenberg, Scott Lonker and Will Nothacker for Wheelhouse’s Spoke Studios; Erik Olsen; and Bruce Gillmer and Michael Maniaci for MTV Entertainment Studios.
