Yuna_Firerose Posted July 23, 2003 Report Posted July 23, 2003 After hearing about the show on Entertainment Tonight, I checked the guide to see if it was on. Surprise surprise...it was. From the half-hour I saw of it, [Evolution was on at 10:30] the show looked real great and quite funny. Anyone else watch this odd, but funny, show?
Guest Retro Rob Posted July 23, 2003 Report Posted July 23, 2003 Believe it or not, that show is one of the only "Reality" shows I can actually sit through and enjoy. Probably because they actually tell you things that are useful in everyday life, as compared to "Extreme Makeover" where people get their faces torn off for the sake of looking 10 years younger. The people on the show are not turned into fucking movie stars or models, but just upgraded so they could mesh well with society. I saw on Zap2It the other day that since the show drew one of Bravo's highest ratings (1.6 million viewers) they were going to air a half hour special on NBC this Thursday at 9:30.
Guest godthedog Posted July 23, 2003 Report Posted July 23, 2003 i think bravo's trying to get a corner on that lucrative "gay men 18-49" demographic. they've got another reality show coming up, 'boy meets boy', which is a competition like the bachelor except it's a guy choosing guys, and some of the guys are straight & he DOESN'T KNOW WHO~! but yeah, i've caught 'queer eye' once or twice and it was actually pretty interesting.
Guest Retro Rob Posted July 23, 2003 Report Posted July 23, 2003 i think bravo's trying to get a corner on that lucrative "gay men 18-49" demographic. Well it's better than the demographic that were attracting... No One.
Guest godthedog Posted July 23, 2003 Report Posted July 23, 2003 actually, bravo's good with attracting the arty-indie type people who don't have IFC. namely, me. god i miss that channel.
Betty Houle Posted July 23, 2003 Report Posted July 23, 2003 i think bravo's trying to get a corner on that lucrative "gay men 18-49" demographic. Well it's better than the demographic that were attracting... No One. Screw that! BRAVO is one of my favorite channels! The Larry Sanders Show, Inside the Actor's Studio, good movies, etc.!
Yuna_Firerose Posted July 23, 2003 Author Report Posted July 23, 2003 they've got another reality show coming up, 'boy meets boy', which is a competition like the bachelor except it's a guy choosing guys, and some of the guys are straight & he DOESN'T KNOW WHO~! Another show that sounds interesting. If it doesn't interfere with Evo, then I'll most likely watch

Well it's better than the demographic that were attracting... No One. They attracted two very lucrative markets The "absolutely adores-and-finds-fascinating-Inside-the-Actors-Studio-and-its-deeply-intelligent-host-James-Lipton" and the "watches-Inside-the-Actors-Studio-only-to-make-fun-of-what-a-complete-ass-kisser-James-Lipton-is"
Guest Vyce Posted July 24, 2003 Report Posted July 24, 2003 My only problem with this show is that by the time they get done, all of the straight guys getting makeovers wind up looking like gay men.

It's not a bad thing to look like a gay man (withing reason). Gay men tend to be neat, well-dresses, and very appealing looking.

I'm merely calling into question the ability of these five men to makeover a straight slob and NOT have the result be that the "victim" looks just like they do.

From this chick's point of view, there is noooo problem with that
Guest Retro Rob Posted July 24, 2003 Report Posted July 24, 2003 I don't know. I'm generally an idiot when it comes to details, but the five of them didn't really look alike. Unless you consider "looking halfway decent" = gay, I don't see your point.
Guest Edwin MacPhisto Posted July 25, 2003 Report Posted July 25, 2003 The show's great. The guys who do the makeovers, particularly the blonde one, have comic timing that blows my mind. I'm sure they benefit a lot from editing, but all of these guys are hilarious. It makes me consistently laugh out loud, which very few TV shows can pull off. Good enough for me.
