On a set that was as close to The Voice as legally prudent, four celeb bachelors turned their backs to various lovelies. The girls tried to persuade the guys to pull their "love handles" (yeah, that's what they called 'em) and turn their chairs around for a look at the merchandise. The girls had thirty seconds to chirp, well, a sales pitch to get the bachelors interested.
If you think this was the ultimate in cheeseball even for a cheesy kind of show, you're correct enough. Cat Deeley hosted as calmly as possible. I guess the producers figured that such a hoity-toity accent would add some semi-respectability.
Eventually each bachelor picked a team of three girls as finalists for that just so dreamy date. Weirdly, the girls donned beauty-pageant style ribbons identifying their teams. Then each bachelor plowed through some goofy Q&A to narrow down their team to the sort of lucky girl. I frankly lost interest as the show wore on, because the elimination rounds moved more slowly than the frantic first round with the 30-second pitches.
What can I say? If you like dating shows, this one wasn't the worst. But I'll pass on the rest of the episodes.
