I saw this interesting show call Beauty and the Geek where they take a group of dumber than dirt models and have them each team up with a socially clueless guy that scored a perfect 1600 on ther SATs. Most of the guys are probable shadow AS cases and one probaby is AS. The guys have to teach the ladies academic stuff and the ladies have to teach the guys social and pop cuture stuff. As usual, teams are eliminated and the last team standing gets money.

Anybody else see it?

No, I missed it. I wanted to see it because one of the "geeks" is a regular poster on another board I'm on.

I was somewhat taken aback then he described the show. $250,000 doesn't seem like enough to be totally embarressed like that.

A martial arts board. He studies Aikido (I think. Might be another Japanese art though.)


I studied Taekwondo for six years and Aikido for for a few short months. I'd love to get back to them sometime so I still lurk on some MA boards.

Some time.

TigerGrey, I downloaded the torrent from the URL you gave on the thread you started. How do you run it, what program do you use?

When's it coming to Norway? Cause we always get the leftovers from all of the realityshows. Sounds like something I would like to watch. hahaha. But are the guys like hot or not? Because I saw this other show called "Average Joe; Hawaii" And it had one model (a girl) and about 30 "nerds"... And she was like "What?! I wanted hotties.."

Anyway when is the gay bachelor coming on?

The men are Alpha Nerds with perfect scores on their SATs and have no social skills, and the women were picked for their looks and lack of intelligence. One guy has AS written all over him, one is a Neurology major (NT), and the rest are probably AS shadow cases.

I saw what was probably a rerun tonight. I could spot the AS guy the second I saw him. It's really obvious, the monotone voice and maturity gave it away. Some of the guys on the show are hilariously awful with women from what I saw. "I'm brown nosing!" That was the pivotal moment for me. It was the one when women worked on cars and guys gave massages.
