Anyone know more about Joshua Morrow and his juggling ability?

I believe that he is the guy that Marcus Monroe has been working
with/training to perform some sort of
globall routine to music. I think he is a Daytime TV soap actor. Seems
like I read that some where...
The Karamzovs are supposed to be on there sometime, as well.

From the clips I've seen in the commercials, I'm not really sure how
skilled he is, and whether he'll advance past round one.
I'm actually more interested to see Danny Bonaduce trying to do a
unicycling performance. THAT should be interesting.
This isn't a new program, really. It's a repackaging of a program called
"Circus of the Stars." They expanded it to include other things than just
circus arts, but it basically the same. For the most part, it's pretty
sucky, from what I could tell from the trailers, anyway.
Most of the performances from The Circus of the Stars were very
forgettable. I do remember Tony Dow, Beaver's older brother, Wally, doing
a trampoline act that wasn't too bad. I have a feeling that the secrets
should have stayed secrets.
According to Marcus' blog the show was so bad that CBS decided to cancel
it after just one show.
I did not watch it, as I figured it would be a disaster. Anyone watch it?
Just the concept alone was a recipe for total trash TV.
Not surprised at all...

It looks like it's online now:

And it sounds like some others share your view, Dave:

Update:
So I have now suffered through the show (or at least most of it) to
let you know that there is no juggling in the first episode, nor
anything very entertaining at all. There is a quite impressive tap
routine at the end, but considering what you have to wait through to
see that I wouldn't say it's worth it.
