Tacky MTV...

What a shallow program I ended up watching!

It was just a while ago, but I already forgot the title. That's how
worthless it was.

It was one of those dating programs where they try to hook up total
strangers. In the one MTV showed a while ago, it's one girl with
three guys. Before the girl gets to meet the guys to pick just one,
she goes to visit their homes to check their lifestyles (how orderly,
how clean, choice of clothing, etc.).

In order to make her desicion totally based on impressions from the
house, the guys are not only absent from their houses, but all their
photographs have been removed. Okay, that's fine.

What I didn't like was the girl digging into the trash cans of the
guys! She went equipped with thongs and rubber gloves to get the job
done. Isn't that going a bit too far? And another tacky one was she
was inspecting the guys' bedsheets with some special light (either
ultraviolet or simply 'black light'), in search of yucky spots! Very
tasteless.

When she was done with the three houses -the guys were watching their
houses' inspection on cctv, by the way-, the three guys went together
into the girl's house, and did just the same to her. And when they
shined the special light on the girl's bedsheets... woa! Those
stains! What are those?

At the end of the program, when the girl had to chose only one guy but
based solely on the lifestyle she imagined from inspecting the house,
she got to meet the three guys for the first time. At this point she
didn't know yet who lived in which house. She started by trying to be
polite by saying what she'd liked about each house:

House #1: I saw in your closet and found your marine uniform. I like
the fact that you served our country.

House #2: I see that you have a lot of money. In fact, I even found
a lot of cash inside your house, which is a good thing because I like
to be pampered.

House #3: I like the fact that you're very orderly and neat. We even
use the same design of bedsheets!

At the end... she picked the guy with "a lot of money"!!!

Well, it's America... perhaps I shouldn't be surprised.
