elimiDATE

You can't help but crack up when you see four people backstabbing and cutting each other down for a single date. But hey, it makes for a fast half hour. I find Spider Lou accurate in decribing the female contestants on that show, but I do recall seeing one stunning southern belle that looked like a supermodel from Victoria Secret (Britton from Charlotte, NC). Oh well, you can never get too much of "reality" tv, can you

While this isn't the worst dating show out there - I think EX-treme dating holds that dubious title - this one isn't much better. Four men or women compete to get a date with a member of the opposite sex. I'd only go on this show to get a free meal and then leave. The whole premise is silly and farfetched; the people on it are either incredibly desperate singles or people who shouldn't be dating in the first place. Sometimes it does get unintentionally funny.

Real dates ABSOLUTELY bear NO resemblance to this.

Big egos and little brains is the recurring theme of elimidate. I work late and not much is on TV, and I watch portions of elimidate. The viewer observes the following. 1) Many of the contestants look burnt out. If the viewer's hormones are not at a high school level many of the people look like the bar trash one would not walk but run away from. Camera hogs, ego driven people who believe they are god's gift to the opposite sex. 2) The loser usually is the one who wins elimidate. Look at me I acted so foolish and for my stupid behavior I won a date with an idiot. 3) One gets to hear such interesting conversation like, you dress like a slut, body piercing, and I have bigger boobs than the other contestant. With Such a conversation I rush my finger to hit the channel change button on the remote. 4) Many of the contestants will probably be seen later on the Murry Polivich show. What is wrong with these people!

I thought 'The Bachelor' was bad, in terms of how far ladies will go to get the "man of their dreams". It wasn't until I saw two (and ONLY two, for I wouldn't be caught dead watching another episode) episodes of 'Elimidate' did I realize that 'The Bachelor' is nothing.

This is reality TV meets softcore porn and Jerry Springer. Four "singles" (usually brainless, twiggy blonds with personalities similar to a melted crayon) go out on the town with one guy (usually a tall egomaniac), and through the day and into the night, the guy eliminates the girls one by one until he is left with the one he likes the best. During the date we see private interviews with the girls, and 99% of time they diss each other. The most creative adjectives used: slut, ho, and whore. Boy, these ladies sure do have low self-esteem and limited vocabularies.

What disgusted me most is that the 'prize' in the first episode wanted his ladies to prove they were worthy by giving him a lap dance. NOTHING was edited out, and even some body parts had to be blurred for obvious reasons. What I would love to know is how these guys can even be attracted to these women; they don't have much to offer.

This is trash TV at its worst. Avoid at all costs.

That other guy who commented about TV being sad or some garbage is a moron. Elimidate rules! I wish It were still on TV so badly. That's all I have to say about that, but it is required that I provide ten lines of copy. So, I hope that Elimidate releases some sort of DVD comp, or every episode ever. And Next does suck. Sometimes Dating on Demand will fulfill a date show craving, but it's like synthetic Elimidate. Is this enough frigging lines yet? Well, I guess not. My friends are watching 24 right now, and I do not find this show to be nearly as entertaining. In fact, I think I hate it. Although I have heard that you really have to get into it for it to be good. And when you do, it is.
