  • Reality Preview: Beauty and the Geek, Top Chef | Roush Dispatch | 3/11/2008
    Two of reality TV's more pleasurable guilty pleasures return this week, one in "top" form and the other going too far in an unfortunate new direction.First up is the CW's Beauty and the Geek (Tuesday, 8 pm/ET) making yet another ill-advised change to the "social experiment," one even more damaging potentially than the last cycle's gender switch of adding a male beauty and a female geek to the game. This time around, the show pits the beauties against the geeks, turning what was once a disarmingly and unexpectedly sweet show into yet another tiresome battle of the sexes — largely abandoning the winning formula of putting beauties and geeks together, encouraging teamwork, and building confidence that goes beyond the stereotypes of stammering nerds and brainless bimbos.No one appears overly pleased at this twist. I know I wasn't. But even with the girls pitted against the guys, the contestants can't help but reach out to each other, even though they're no longer officially... read more
  • Is This Geek for Real? | Today's Top Videos | 3/11/2008
    As yet another season of Beauty and the Geek ensues, another batch of brilliant (wink, wink) women and socially-challenged men embarrass themselves in front of America. But one geek in particular caught our eye. Perhaps it's his tuxedo t-shirt (which clearly says "I want to be formal, but I'm here to party”), or the shifty-eyed delivery of his touching poem. Whatever it is, we definitely are putting our money on that guy! Go to video close-up now! read more
  • In New Beauty and the Geek, Assets Face Off | Today's News: Our Take | 2/21/2008
    The CW's Beauty and the Geek is back March 11 (8 pm/ET), but this time the gorgeous and the brilliant won't be paired up: They'll be pitted against each other. In the all-new season of the Ashton Kutcher-produced series, the nine new beauties will have no brilliance to lean on, nor will the geeks have any in-team help on the fashion front. Adding more challenge to the mix will be competitions where the geeks join uber-guru Dr. Drew on Loveline, as well as attempt to offer style tips for beauty make-unders. The lovely ladies, meanwhile, will be charged with plumbing challenges, and will even join their opposing contestants on an ep of The Young and the Restless.Some of the new geeks to watch for include Tommy, a "sweater-vest enthusiast" from Somerville, Massachusetts, and Jason, a so-called "buff geek" from Brooklyn. These two and their geek compatriots will go up against ladies such as Amber, a Hawaiian Tropic model, and Tara, a Hooters hostess from Florida. Who might win in this... read more
  • Beauty and the Geek's Winners Take Home More Than Just the Money | TV Guide Interviews & Features | 12/7/2007
    The CW's Beauty and the Geek has every right to declare Cycle 4 winners Jasmine Moore and Dave Olsen an exemplary model of what its "social experiment" is all about: learning patience and appreciation for the disparate worlds of tanning beds and bikinis, comic books and LARPing (live-action role-playing, that is). Dave, 28, was (he confesses) a "thoughtless, tactless and careless" teammate when first paired with 22-year-old Jasmine. But by midseason, the team set aside their differences to ... read more
