Eye candy

On GSN today I happened across one of the Miss USA episodes from Minute To Win It.

For some odd reason the show required the lovelies to compete in tight skimpy tops and tighter skimpier bottoms. They also had the lissome contestants bend over a lot during the stunts. I can't imagine what the producers were trying to do. Well, okay, I can imagine pretty damn well what the producers were trying to do.

Game show fans can get puritanical about eye candy in our little genre. Some folks seem to think that such visuals somehow cheapen what should be the pristine appeal of the gameplay. Me, I ain't so picky. For prurient moi, one of the best features of the much maligned Dog Eat Dog, for instance, was the pleasant flesh on display.

Am I too much of a dirty old man? Oh, probably. But I did take some time to watch Minute To Win It today.
