Dog Eat Dog

I love Dog Eat Dog. I think it's one of the best shows i watch. Everyone always assumes its a useless and dumb show just because Brooke Burns is the host and she was on Baywatch. They all say shes the typical "hot, slutty host" but thats not it. She's not like that at all.It's such a shame the show got canceled. I watch it on GSN still, only twice a week, Tuesday and Wednesday at 10 o clock. I wish they would bring the show back so much. I love the games, they're so creative and original. The one i especially like is "He or She". 6 men dress up as women..but one is actually a real woman. You have to guess the correct one. Though i never get it right i love it. This can also be done vis-versa. But i completely disagree with all the comments saying its a horrible show.

I used to like Television until the whole Reality TV trend. As mentioned so many times before, the bar for quality and decency is lowered with every new show. "Dog Eat Dog" is a reality show where men and women slug it out against each other in physical and mental challenges, most of them involving a huge pool. The rules of the game are unimportant because `in reality' they are just an excuse to show wet chicks in bathing suits. The show's contestants are aspiring stars (Waitresses & Personal Trainers) who want to get in some time behind the camera and hopefully get discovered. Designed for the 18-24 year old male audience, it's so blatantly contrived that most of the time only the girls end up in the water doing challenges. Before that, though, they have to strip down to their suits in front of the camera as it pans up and down their body. Watching this and countless shots of contestants' hooters and crotches as they frolic about in the pool makes one feel like some pervert at the beach. If you like to check out women in swim suits while they're not looking this show is for you. Now I don't mind a little harmless eye candy, but I'll stick with "Wild" on E! or Baywatch reruns.

The show does some challenges like the football one, There's also A challenge where you have to run on something and if you get a question wrong it speeds up to the next level. Then at the end the winning contestant and the dog pound get A chance to win $25,000. There sent to a camp where they face challenges and before the challenge begins the contestants vote for who is least likely to complete this event. And if they don't make it they're sent to the dog pound but if they do they get to choose one of the guys that voted for that person to go to the dog pound in their place.

I personally really like this show. It combines all the things that you like to see in a fun, forgettable, non-confrontational game show.

1. It has a good looking host. This is a must. Brooke Burke is no Chuck Woolery in the charisma department but she makes up for it by being a bombshell.

2. Meaningless competition. While there is a cash prize of $25,000 at the end of each episode, no one in the audience cares who wins or loses. They are much more involved in the "meaningless competition", which in this show is less about eating odd animal parts and more about completing entertaining tasks that have no real value except to provide the contestants an opportunity to show off their taut bodies.

3. Taut Bodies. I'm fairly certain that the only reason this show stayed on the air as long as it did was because it frequently involved girls changing into their swimsuits.

4. The odd man out. You may be wondering what this is. This is the contestant that is not like the others. In a lineup of five other normal looking "coeds" there's always one goth guy with a bunch of tattoos and long "elvish" hair or some idiot with a tongue ring and a mohawk. This contestant's elimination is always extremely entertaining.

So there you have it. If you have satellite TV and an hour to kill, check out dog-eat-dog on gsn.

Dog Eat Dog isn't what you call a grown-up version of Double Dare or another American Gladiators rip-off, it's a show where you either play with pride or money with 6 people. 1 day before taping, they were whisked away to camp where they had to learn their Phys. Ed. skills and when it was over, it was time for the game to start. Once Brooke Burns describes the challenge to the contestants, it was time to vote who would end up failing this challenge and if so, he/she got sent to the "Dog Pound" where it didn't involve you catching a dog with a butterfly net, but if he/she won, then he/she will pick who got sent to the pound by the person who voted for him/her and that, my friends, is simple.

When it was down to just 2 players left, it was time for a Head-to-Head challenge where it was either a scoring competition or mostly an endurance competition, the winner became Top Dog and went to the final round in a best of 5 contest. If the Dog Pound wins it, 5 members will each get $5000, but if one person wins, he/she alone will win $25,000.

25k is a measly amount of money, especially losing it to the Dog Pound, but the stunts were harder and it might be difficult to complete it, but Dog Eat Dog in my case, is a best in show winner all-around.
