Dating in the dark...a total bust!

All the girls went for the same guy (leaving 2 guys to hang out in the house till the end of the show)...and after the one guy got to see all 3...he headed to the balcony in the hopes that "Jen" would come meet him.  The other 2 girls headed for the front door knowing he wasn't their type when it came to "looks"...and "Jen", well...she hit the front door too!  Awesome...what a waste of a show!

So it isn't just about looks?!

I missed the first few minutes of the show...came in on the compatibility part.  I think it is interesting that as soon as they are matched up, they just stick with that person.  I was wondering when they would start fighting over one guy (whom they have never seen) till I saw previews for next week's show...can't wait to see the claws come out.

But back to this show...seems like personalities were all in tact on the 3 couples...almost. 

 The blond was matched up with the guy in the gray t-shirt.  They seemed to hit it off great...then the reveal...(you can't see his face...but he is C-U-T-E)...she of course thought he was way cute...his concern...bad skin (and I will give him that..she did...but she is also super cute).  Of course...he went out and met her on the balcony. Good job!

The brunette was set up with the guy in the blue t-shirt.  He said something about being able to be himself and say abrasive things and she just played off of it...what I saw...him being abrasive and her not knowing how to deal with his "shut up while I am eating" so she went along in what appeared to be a very uncomfortable play...whatever.  He told gray t-shirt guy that he felt her body and she is thicker then he normally goes for...awesome!  But in the end...he met her on the balcony. Again...good job!

The last couple....religious beauty with a LOT of hair was paired up with man obsessed with a straightener.  They got on fine in the dark...he was a little concerned about her religiousness...but they had a few fun and playful get togethers so he wasn't completely turned off.  I think her prayer over the meal he cooked her bugged him a bit.  During the reveal...he was totally into her looks.  But he said...for once it wasn't the looks...he thought she was gorgeous...it was her personality and her religiousness  that killed it for him...so out the front door he went.  Kinda interesting...I wasn't as mad at him for walking out the front door based on her personality...still don't understand why they don't all go out on the balcony to "save face" (as Hannah pointed out) and look good on tv...but whatever...at least he still has his straightener!

A waste and then some funny...

The Bachelorette "The men tell all" was very dumb and I fast forwarded most of the show.  These guys are more caddy then the girls.  And seriously...who were the ones defending Wes, are you kidding me with that?!  Whatever!  The only good part was the preview for next week and seeing that the "shocking confession" is Reid back to tell her that he loves her and wants to marry her.  Duh...as if we didn't see that coming.  I really don't know who she will pick...I'm just pretty sure it won't end in marriage.  Sorry Jillian...the odds are against you!

Okay...so that show ended and then Dating in the Dark began...awesome!  Most Awesome part...none of the contestants were all that fantastic looking and yet they still highly judged each other.  I was really glad to see that at least 2 of the couples ended the show getting into the same car...I felt so bad for the one guy who was left stranded on the balcony while his "match" walked out the front door.  I liked her through the show and was very upset that she ditched him like that...not cool girlfriend, not cool.  So if you missed this show or the many previews...there are 3 guys and 3 girls in a house, but they never get to see each other.  They meet on individual dates in the pitch black.  It isn't till after (I think a week) that they finally see each other...but they don't get to see the other's reaction to them.  THEN...if they still want to try it...they can go out on the balcony or just leave.  The craziest thing about this show...they brought in a sketch artist for the kids to describe what they think their "match" looks like (after spending lots of time in the dark room on "dates")...the girls pictures were scary on how closely they resembled the girls...it was very interesting that the guys knew what they girls looked like with out ever seeing them...the girls did an okay job...but not even as good as the guys! Anyway...it is a pretty fun show...just an hour on monday nights and you get to see it from start to finish in one episode, which is nice for a change!  Check it out!
