Review by muttley79

It can be argued that this show was a ripoff of "Love Connection", but "Studs" took dating to another level. Host Mark DeCarlo presided over the festivities as 2 guys talk about their dates with 3 women. The women make statements before the show and the guys have to guess which woman said which statement. A correct guess wins the guy a heart, and the most hearts gets the guy closer to a dream getaway of his choice with the woman of his choice (provided she picks him to be her date, of course.)

The gimmick of this show was some of the statements pre-recorded by the women before the show. These statements were edited to imply sexual innuendo that would get the audience roaring in anticipation (although there were one or two instances when the man and woman did take things to an intimate level.)

But one memorable episode had one young woman complaining that her date only spent six dollars on their date. She went on and on for about two minutes talking about her date being so cheap that she left with another guy. How embarrassing was that! I bet that guy wanted to crawl into a hole and stay there. But he rebounded and did get picked by one of the other ladies, so all was not lost.

I believe "Studs" only lasted about three seasons, but I would love to know if it is available on DVD. If it is, please let me know. Have a great weekend!
