HOME > Average Joe > Average Joe 1'Meet My Folks' beauty Melana Scantlin to star in new NBC show 'Average Joe'
According to TV Guide Online, NBC dedicated a significant part of its July 24 presentation during the TV critics' tour to its new reality show Average Joe. The fall-season show, to be hosted by Celebrity Mole Hawaii winner/comedienne Kathy Griffin, featues a twist on the normal dating-show format, with a beautiful woman being surrounded by a cast of geeky, nerdy guys trying to win her affection. (Of course, many women may find the show uncomfortably close to reality for their own tastes....)
Three of the contestants vying for Melana's affection were also featured, and they lived down to their advance billing. Griifith, however, seemed annoyed that they were merely normal (or, perhaps, a little subnormal): "They actually weren't hideous enough for me. I wanted to see maybe a eunuch, maybe somebody without an eye, someone with uncontrollable diarrhea... " We are unsure whether Kathy thought that Melana's suitors should have been more like that description, or whether Kathy was merely expressing her own preferences in men. Perhaps she should get in contact with the people casting Fox's "copycat" show Love Spell, which is also searching for unattractive men to pursue a beautiful woman. |
