Excused

She can't prevent it from being a flat-out insult to watch.

Why would women feel a need to lower themselves to behave like painted trollops jumping through hoops, to vie for the attention of narcissistic troglodytes? WTF? This show is an insulting embarrassment to women all over the globe.

Man, these are some of the phoniest, most contrived-looking females clucking like chickens, shaking their butts and tonguing guys they've never met. Classy! And is the competition for male companionship SO strong that they have to don their clown makeup and costumes, and turn themselves into something their Mamas would be ashamed of?

And the men?... whoa. The men make 'single' an attractive option.

I've done computer work late for years, so I used to watch Blind Date, Chains of Love, Elimidate, on a regular basis. Blind Date came up with so many random people, it was actually quite hilarious and amazing to watch the horrible characters of people emerge, especially as they got drunk, but maybe that caused lawsuits. I wont even compare it to Cheaters, which is truly engaging, but also setup.

This one is real low budget, and seems to be transparently set up, in that there is very little attempt to create the impression of a reality show. The two choosers are generally average to poor representatives of their own gender, and they choose only the hottest of the contestants trying to get to them, so it panders in that sense.

In the case of men choosing women, the women across the board are aspiring LA actresses, or more likely, strippers, who put on the dumbest of acts. It seems like everyone is chosen to be dumber than the host, who is attractive, sharp, and charming, and also fairly cruel and clinical. Her role is to play superior to it all, which can't help the fact that she's knee deep in the sleaze-fest. You can't help thinking she should get a better gig most of the time she's on. Her relentless insults don't bug me, but they could bug plenty of viewers.

The production is really meager. The only graphics are a weak 3D title opener, the sets are reminiscent of porn, so you won't see any changing scenery, or random spectators getting involved, like you did on Blind Date. There's no upbeat theme song. No vehicles. The contestants come to the house, basically to be abused for who knows what pittance of a paycheck. It's actually similar to the show where the finalist gets to select which one of the choosers, and then that person can bail as well (for more money I assume, although I think the entire thing is scripted). Since it is scripted, you get to watch total hacks act, not a pleasant sight. You also get to watch the host high-five the contestants. Lame.

The other shows were fun on a certain level. I won't say this show is never fun, but fun is rare enough to make you want change the channel.

this is the best reality dating show on TV, as good as the first Blind Date. I believe it has the same producers.

the hostess is hilarious and to the truth, the script is plain. The two in charge have to power to pick based on quick peek, profile, and then two face to face dates. They pick one person, when then PICKS between the two of them. This spices up the show, the last one picked can decide to not-pick the last person standing. This means that you can get thrown, like Flava Flav in the end, but it isn't scripted at all. People are competitive and will win, even if they don't like a guy, so u never know.

Sometimes, connections are made, and the hostess is wise enough to see through the one date won't work and the relationships that might actually happen. This is better than Cheaters because you can watch it without much grief.

Funny show. The host pretty much carries the program.

She is sharp and witty. I think she is a cross between Letterman and Craig Ferguson only she is better looking and she bites a bit harder. Most of those dating reality shows suck, but I actually enjoyed this one. I came back after every commercial and that is a first for me.

The host has a way of hitting the contestants over the head with her "zingers", without really making you feel like you were punched in the stomach. Tough to balance humor and flat-out insults. I think that is what made it enjoyable.

I was never a fan of Simon on American Idol because he was just too mean. I think this Iliza lady has got the right combination for success,

What is Happening Here?

What this "show" is about is FEMDOM, pure and simple. It takes all the nice elements about women & loving relationships and throws them in the sewer,over and over again, by a female -none the less! By the way, She is not that attractive, especially when she contorts her face. Uggghhh!!

It is not about laughs, or male/female harmony, it is all about social re-engineering. The host demonstrates how most women think in their minds, but do not verbalize to others. In other words, What goes on in a crazy bitches mind. This show facilitates the idea that this is normal female behavior and keeps delivering the same message.

Reverse the gender roles for a minute, if the host were a male, this show would be insanely funny, because it would be considered "normal" male behavior, but it would not fit the "Political Correctness" politics of the Hollywood social re-engineers. So, that's why they use a female - Get It!

Well, I hope you get the idea, because this is the future of Mass Media in America, in movies, music, ads,in the work place - everywhere.

Total Social Gender Destruction & Chaos, that's what the Hollywood product is now, I agree with one of other reviewers, Hollywood has lost all forms of highly creative thinking.

Just think, Technology has created a world of endless creative possibilities and this is all they can imagine, along with Forrest Gump, Shreck, Cops & Narcotic Traffickers and now another Batman movie.

This whole industry exists purely for profit.
