The Bachelor’s Mike Fleiss Could Learn a Thing or Two.
First and foremost this is a classy show. No-one gets tanked. The bitchiness is kept to a minimum. The contestants seem to actually get along. No nudity. Not raunchy.
It really is more romantic than sexy. Which is surprising given the profile of the ‘Dream Guy.’
He actually gets more attractive as the show progresses. By the time the men see him rising from the sea, no one can contain their appreciation. Ahem!
If you are a clothes horse like I am you will be impressed by the dandies on the show whose outfits are most complimentary. Including one black Speedo! I love a well-tailored suit and was not disappointed. All were attractive, very different types, and in various progressions of attaining washboard abs. Some had to have been Greek gods in a past life! There is one contestant likely to make everyone’s jaw drop and another that will make Dream Guy do a double take.
You get a little peek into each contestant’s life which gave you a sense of their true personalities without their nerves. There are no bad guys. They all seem decent, sincere, and there for the right reasons.
There are sports, drama, and endurance challenges that propel the winner to the next round. The competition is very good-natured. These contests include celebrity guests. Here’s a spoiler: Max & Tul do some cooking.
Tul asks why he has been invited to be the Dream Guy and someone responds ‘because there would be women on your list! ´ JUST WOW!
The elimination ceremonies got to me! I found them more poignant than other shows of this genre.
I really felt so bad when someone was eliminated. And of course this is where the biggest surprises occur. Jewelry is given to the lucky ones which is preferable to a rose doomed to die.
The only thing I wish had been done differently was how the contestants were introduced. Uninspired and rather imposing on Dream Guy. Now you will notice I haven’t mentioned his name. I just cannot like his nickname - Claudjane! How to pronounce this?! Turns out it is an actual name. Note to self: Research HIS actual name.
One telling thing that was revealed was that two thought they were recruited for an acting job!
This is worth watching for the actual romantic gestures alone. And the respect they afford each other.
Oh and most importantly, the Dream Guy gets it right in choosing Mr. Right.
This is a sweet, positive, feel-good show. So go watch it now!
