This is an augmented version of "Blind Date". However, this dating show is more contest and winning oriented than intimacy and chemistry related. To see five different personalities clash is interesting, but would not be nearly as interesting if the well done post-editing of graphics and effects (about twice as much as it's parent show) weren't there. They are placed in such a way that you'd never expect, i.e. if a woman even shows a hint of boredom towards a rambling guy, a bed and pillow are superimposed on the woman and she is sleeping away, or--if a guy is feigning a stab to the heart, a knife is drawn in place The sky's the limit! As for the daters themselves, most of the women are quite lovely eye-candy, but not always over the top actress/supermodel, and because of that the guys seem to feel that they have a fairer shot at being picked at the end.
So, this is a dating/game show, funnier than its MTV clone, "Dismissed," but equally as gratuitous.
