[BlogEntry] Age Of Love : Is Anybody Watching This?

There's a new bachelor-like show on Monday nights called Age Of Love. The gimmick? Half the women vying for the affections of the 30yr old bachelor are in their 40's, and half are in their 20's. Which will he choose?

Thus far (two episodes) the production alone has been pretty lopsided, going well out of the way to make the 40yr olds look sad and pitiful (talking mostly about heartbreak and how they hope it is not too late for them), but making the 20yr olds seem entirely shallow and stupid ("I'm hot, deal with it"). As a 38yr old it's actually pretty painful to even listen to the 20somethings talk. But then again, I can't even imagine the amount of plastic surgery that went into the 48yr old (who I believe was the one that claimed "good genetics").

The producers will probably ruin the concept by making him eliminate one woman from each group every time, in order to keep it even. Once he has entirely eliminated one group, after all, the "experiment" is proven. So they have to pretend like he likes one 20yr old and one 40yr old equally and then has to make up his mind.

Eh. It's still better than Ex Wives Club. :)!
