Really Surprised!

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Yes to continue my title this show is a reason to sign up with a paid service online. I found someone wonderful on a paid service and that is so much better instead of this silly show. For entertainment purposes Blind Date is absolutely hysterical. Case in point, they had a show last week where the "Hall of Shame" had one of the most obtuse and obnoxious idiots ever trying to swoon a lady who from the very beginning had no interest whatsoever in this jack ass. Even when they do the after interviews this woman plainly stated that she wouldn't date this dunce in this or any lifetime. Then aforementioned dunce said that he "won" her over and that he will definitely be going out with her again. But what stands out the most and I might add other comments very truly stated, is the absolute arrogance and stupidity of both the guys and the gals. Most of these dudes think they are God's gift to women and that the ladies are helpless whenever they are around their incredible charm. Most of the women are in-your-face whinny tarts who think that they'll find "Mr. Right" and when their expectations rightfully crash and burn they have this offish and ball crushing attitude. But the funniest is when the couples who obviously hate each other go off and it almost turns into fist to cuffs! Oh, and one more thing to add is the incredibly ridiculous and downright asinine things these people do on these dates. Are you kidding me? In no way would I go "go karting" or "skateboarding" on a first date. Other laughable romps include dance lessons, batting cages, paint-ball, tarot readings and massages. Hello producers, those are things that people do WHEN THEY'RE ALREADY IN A RELATIONSHIP! But all in all it does show the mediocrity that permeates the 20 something folks today. And as an earlier poster said that that is a sad look at the future if these nitwits procreate!

I watch too many of these dating shows; it creates images in my head that many people are going through life partly unaware of the impression they make, and are slightly clueless as to how they related to others. I need to remind myself that TV isn't true reality, since there can be much tinkering behind the scenes.If we think of the contestants of this show being awful, what do we consider the ones on other shows ( where some feature more than two people leading to competition, extra insults/tension, bickering ).Roger Lodge is a very good host. Many people on television ( not just dating shows ) just try too hard; they chatter a bit too much and use forced humor ( example: Jillian Barbarie of Ex-treme Dating ). Lodge tries go with the flow and does not force himself on the audience.I have noticed contestants on dating shows who appear on more than one of them. It's a small, tiny, strange trend of current reality TV. Are these people obsessed with trying to be on these shows? Are they appearing simply because the producers of shows know each other and suggest contestants to each other? Who knows....

**SPOILERS CONTAINED IN THREAD**its a show which features men and women doing what they do best, wooing each other and trying to get eah others attention. Between the thought bubbles which appear over the men and women and the craziness the men and woman put themselves through, you are left witha big bundle of mess. the best thing you can do is try not to look at this show as a dating tool and look at it for the car wrecks of blinde dates. Do not try to learn anything from this show about how to treat people or conduct yourself on a date. This show is entertainment and shold be thought of as such. Definetly watch this show, but do not try to think of this show as a blue print as to how to meet people. Also, check out rodger lodge in the movie, "not of this earth". He's great in that movie. This show gets a 10 out of 10 for showing the rock and roll california lifestyle.

The best thing about this show are the "thought bubbles" and cartoon drawings that supposedly tell what the couples are really thinking. Those are very funny. I have to wonder though--where do they find some of those people? From what they say in the little intro before the cameras start following them on their dates, I get the impression that most of the participants are 1) sex obsessed, 2) have huge egos, 3) very immature, 4) lacking social skills, 5) crazy. Do they even want lasting relationships?
