The three-part docuseries Nothin' but a Good Time: The Uncensored Story of '80s Hair Metal will debut on the Paramount+ streaming service later this year.

The series is based on the book of the same name, released by Tom Beaujour and Richard Bienstock in 2021. Bret Michaels, Stephen Pearcy, Nuno Bettencourt and Dave "Snake" Sabo are among the musicians who were interviewed for the program.

"From the streets to the Strip, the studio to the stage, this is an epic tale told by the people that lived it," Michaels, of Poison, added. "It's a backstage pass to the wildest and loudest party in rock history ― you'll feel like you were right there with us!"
