The show has been so much kinder to everyone than Average Joe 1-3.....and seems to be letting things evolve or fall apart of its own chemistry or lack there of......that being said.....even the Geeks in Philly know the sixers....Eagles...Flyers and Phillies.....you can't sneeze without seeing ads for them on the local tv.....

I hope the two guys from that region were just momentarily awestruck...or something....

I watched the repeat last night and found it endearing in a silly sort of way. Can't wait for next week.

Yea..this is a cute show, it'll be a newbie reality show to 'get into'.

I also agree with another poster who earlier said that it was 'out of line' to have them sleep together. I know they probably did that to add a bit of tension and 'controversy' or whatever for the show, but imo.. it's really not necessary.

Other than that, which is a teensy issue... it's a good show so far!

I honestly don't think that the questions asked to the women in any way give an appropriate measure of their intelligence. I consider myself to be a reasonably smart individual, and I would have missed some of those questions. While I used to ace map challenges in elementary and middle school, I've entirely forgotton the location of many states now that I'm in my early twenties. I often times spell things wrong and fail to recognize words out of context. Additionally, I would have been unable to answer many of the political questions. Of course if I were prepped on them before hand that could be another matter. Anyway, what I'm trying to get at is that I have seen no evidence that these women are anymore stupid than the average person. Heck, I've seen people mispell words in this very forum.

Words like "misspell"?

I'm not picking on you; the same thing happens to me all the time.

Overall, I do agree with your post. Answering a few trivia questions goes only a short way toward establishing a person's intelligence. I could bore the forum into submission on the minutia of topics that interest me, but I would get killed on pop-culture questions.

I lurved the show. In fact, I think it's my new favorite.
