Average Joe

[Zanarkand Abes]

how many of y'all watch this? I do and it is a funny show, although I do feel bad for the nerds. How many of y'all thinks she will pick a nerd, and why?

Watch your post quality. You could at least give us the run-down. What's the show about, for starters?

Hey. That hasn't started here yet. It starts in Feb. I've seen the previews though and it looks really funny. It's about a young beautiful girl and she goes on this show thinking it will be like "The Bachelorette" but she gets stuck with all these average looking guys instead of the hot ones she was expecting. I can't wait to watch it. I love bad TV. lol Isn't it only an Australian show?

[color=darkred][SIZE=1][font=verdana]I think this has to be my second favorite reality show since Meet Joe Millionare. It just goes to show the true shallow nature behind most everyone. You stick some beautiful woman with a ton of 'not so beautiful' men. . and this show is what you get. . I mean, I didn't really watch any of the first one, and I really haven't watched much of the second one.

I did manage to watch the beginning of each though. . and just watching the faces on these women. . both of them were like. . "No, dear God NO!!" It was pretty funny. And all the time, they are trying to find some way not to lose it in front of these guys. . It just goes to show you, no matter how many women say the same thing, "I just want some nice guy!" . . . it's all a lie *nods* LOL

Though I don't know who has seen the end of the first one. . I will just say [spoiler]The girl chooses one of the 'hunks' . .so, again, going to my point that nice guys finish last. . LOL[/end spoiler] Oh well. . I am looking forward to the end of the second one as well. . just to see. The best thing they did with this show over Joe Millionare was film both series at the same time. . I think it's much better that way. . The second Joe Millionare was filmed after the first series. . and it jsut didn't work as well. *shrug* Don't know why. Fox said they got greedy, lol.[/SIZE][/color][/font]

This show is wicked and cruel but oh so funny. I love the concept to see if looks really do matter much in a relationship. Some of these guys are pathetic and so sad it hurts to watch them. I love it when the hots guys come in and the Average Joe's go into a fury. One even started working out.

[color=indigo][size=1][font=century]Well, I still follow my self-imposed ban of all reality TV, but I'll give my two cents on Average Joe.

On the one hand, it sounds amusing, but when you think about it, this show is incredibly shallow. The woman is supposed to look 'beyond outer appearances' and learn to love one of the Joes for who he is, correct? But the horrible irony is that they Joes themselves are the shallow ones. All they knew about her signing up was that she was hot. They didn't really know her personally, yet it's okay for them to make physically-based value judgements of her? Who's really shallow in this scenario?

Like I said before, I haven't actually watched it, so if I'm wrong, please feel free to correct me.[/color][/font][/size]

Ugh, this season is retarded. Just to let you know, what they do is take a bunch of Average Joes (who are way less than average, believe me; they pick the geekiest nerdiest nastiest dudes they can; we're talking the epitome of "friendless virgin") and, after a few episodes, throw in a bunch of total studs.

It's supposed to be a match of charm vs. looks, but the thing is a lot of the "average joes" have almost no charm. On top of that, the sad thing is the lady this season is so superficial it hurts. The "studs" this time around are total ***$holes on top of that. It's just stupid to watch at this point. I'm hoping the b_tch picks the dumbest meanest "stud" out there because that's exactly what she deserves.
