Reality TV World Message Board Forums
PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Great review from the Chicago Tribune...."
No link so I'll just retype it here....


The Idea: 16 singles set sail in a reality TV cash-prize game that puts "Temptation Island" on a boat.

The Execution: Its original debut of Sept 11 has been twice delayed by world events. Love Cruise comes from the producers of "Real World" and "Road Rules" people who know how to create situations and then milk them for every last ounce of interpersonal conflict and physical attraction. With a series of games and forced pairings, and a whole lot of swimsuit modeling, it plays in the premiere like good, dirty fun. The cameras are ever alert for moments of revealation, the casting seems to draw as good a bunch of people as an exercise in exhibitionism could draw, and the editing, the turning of these people's feelings of triumph and rejection into stories, is masterful.

The publicity-friendly quote: "Love Cruise" is not only "Temptation Island" on a boat; it's "Temptation Island with a brain!"

Me too shakes - hope this is everything you want it to be.

And you may be a water cooler show yet! A friend and I were trying to make plans to have dinner this week. I suggested tonight and she said "No way - I gotta watch that show with all the people f-ing on the boat."

Good luck - I'll be watching.

Here's an article from TV guide on the LC.


Love Cruise's Sexy Secrets Revealed!
Tuesday, September 25, 2001


Meet Toni, whose store-bought bosom puts her fellow female contestants on guard right from the start on Fox's Love Cruise (debuting tonight at 9 pm/ET on Fox). "I don't mind what people say . Why do you think I got them?" the brassy blonde proudly declares during a round of the boat-based reality series's "Hot Seat" competition. "I wanted to make myself more attractive to men. It was my choice, my money and I did what I had to do."

Oh, to remember the simpler times of Love Boat, when the most bawdy banter stopped and started with, "Would you like to come in for a night cap?" Instead, Love Cruise — in which eight eligible men share a boat with eight single women — aims to make serious waves. "This is a very raucous, salacious, gregarious — and even exhibitionist — cast," host Justin Gunn teases TV Guide Online. "Each and every one of them is a grand personality with a lot to give."

After speed-dating each other (six minutes a pop) at the onset, Love Cruise's 16 shipmates then pair up, for 48 hours at a time (at the end of which, one of each gender is voted off the ship). Along the way, events like the "Hot Seat" Q&A promise to stir the pot — and probe into real emotions. (One woman is moved to tears in the premiere.)

"What Love Cruise does so well, and something I believe has been lacking in this genre, is present good storytelling and honest human drama," offers Gunn. "Whereas shows like Fear Factor ask you to vicariously put yourself in a far-fetched situation —'What would I do if I had to eat cow testicles?' — this program elicits things that every human being can identify with." — Matt Webb Mitovich
