The Bachelor Pad is bad
Did you expect a show called Bachelor Pad (which you know is a spin-off of ABC's Bachelor and Bachelorette) to be good? However, I've lost four hours of my life to this garbage thus far.
In a nutshell: Cast off's from past seasons of network TV's biggest matchmaking failure franchise co-habitate in a Malibu mansion and complete challenges to earn immunity and dates with other contestants. The grand prize is your standard $250,000 grand however, producers hope some contestants will get distracted by love and choose the proverbial love over money. How sweet (and yes they do).
There are rose ceremonies and hosts Chris Harrison and Melissa Rycroft instigate competitors during challenges.
The show can easily be described as a hybrid of Survivor, the Real World/ Road Rules Challenge and well of course the Bachelor (ette). And, maybe a little good old fashioned Blind Date.
Last night the girls led off the pie eating challenge. It was to say the least very unappetizing. The challenge required contestants to eat a pie without their hands, much like at a state fair. However, the girls donned bikins and the men came shirtless. The girls puked and the guys used their own techniques including dipping their hair in the pie to soak up the liquid (barf). Tenley was uber dramatic but came in second.
So, if you are hankering for beautiful people, big personalities, drama, romance and deception you're in for a treat.
