The Celebrity Dating Game

Michael Bolton, what were you thinking??? This has to be the worst hour of prime time tv...EVER! That's saying a lot.

This is just really cheap produced. First of all the term "celebrity" on these shows is too loose. Granted, yes Tom Hanks wouldn't appear on this, but get some fun B liters. Michael Bolton adds nothing to this show. He looks annoyed almost as if he really does not want to be here. Interesting idea, but poorly executed.

I really wanted to like it, and Zooey Deschanel is a great host, but "Mr. Personality" Michael Bolton does not belong. And the celebs, daters and questions are all lame, and unrealistic. Bring back Alec Baldwin and Match Game! It's a very generous 3/10, because I feel sorry for Zooey stuck in this mess.

It's not "actually" anything that it advertises itself as, as it's not really a "dating" game, the "celebrities" are mostly celebrities in name only (a contestant from another reality dating game show is NOT a celebrity), and therefore does it even qualify as a "show", then?

There's no actual date, and there's no way in a million years these people actually ever go on a date, and Michael Bolton sings like a guy slowly being turned to stone, so there's that, too.

Awful, terrible, no-go pointless waste of time. And Zooey looks frightened to be there.

Are you kidding me?

First off, let me start with the positive highlights of this first episode.

OK, there you go, now on to my review. Terrible and not entertaining. I've always been a fan of Zoe, but if this is the real Zoe, I've kinda lost respect for Jonathan Scott. How are you dealing with her. I hope everything on this show is scripted and produced because if this is real, it's really bad.

I rated it a 2 because I don't think I've ever made an IMDB rating a 1.....or less? Then I saw the overall score and it is a 1.7.. I've never seen an overall score that low, but I guess there's always a first...and that 1.7 really fits.

Then there's Michael Bolton. His non verbal demeanor is screaming "why am I doing this show?" It's written all over his face.

And lastly, why try to replicate a great iconic and awesome show from the day.

I won't be watching episode #2.
