"Meet My Folks is hilarious"
I'm currently watching this new show where three guys come and live with a girl and her parents and I'm laughing my head off.

I can't believe that they are telling the things about these poor guys: They cheat on their past girlfriends, like being spanked, sleep with their friend's moms. Ah... the good old days when I was dating are all coming back to me!

Is anyone else watching this?

2. ""pilot" photos"
FYI, a while back NBC has released some photos to the media for what was labelled the "pilot" for this show. Apparently they opted not to air it tonight, so who knows if it's being held back or has been pulled for whatever reason. Since the daughter's name in the Episode 2 DeCastro family seems to be named Jessica, it's not airing as episode 2.

Hmmm, looks like older guys for the "pilot". One of them looks kinda hot. Hope they show it.

p.s. Webby, I finally checked out the news section of the SB website and it is fantastic!!! I've bookmarked it and will visit often and reccommend it to friends. (:

Oh yes, my wife and I both watched it last night and we were ROFLing at some of the stuff in there. They couldn't have found 3 worse liars on the planet and the parents were a hoot as well. Amazing the parents were so tolerant through it all as their tramp of a daughter literally threw herself all over these boys. Like heck I'd let my daughter swap spit and tongues with two of the guys in the same day!

We'll be sure to watch more of this stuff...

This show was hilarious!!! I agree, CG.

First of all, the winner, Chris, looked like the missing link between apes and humans. He must have been defrosted a couple hours before the show.

I can't believe that the parents chose someone who had slept with an ex-girlfriend's mother and then lied about it. I don't care what any of the other guys had done, that would have to be the ultimate deal breaker for someone dating my daughter.

Argh! We missed it, but I really wanted to see it. How does it work? Is it a new girl and three new guys every episode? Someone was already 'picked'? Can someone fill me in so I can watch on Wednesday? (Oh, I hate being "that person", but I'm super curious.)

7. "RE: How does it work."
LAST EDITED ON 07-23-02 AT 11:28 AM (EST)

You've got it pretty well summed up, Femme. It's 3 lame-ass guys dragged in off the street to meet the parents of a girl -- the winner gets to go to Hawaii (at least that's how it was in the first show) with the girl.

Each of the three guys walked in on a Friday to meet the girl and parents, they were put up in one bedroom and each got a chance to talk to the parents, go on an individual date with the girl and each had 'surprises' where they had to perform a procedure or risk having some skeleton from their past coming up to bite them in the ass (in the first show, each had to belch or wipe mom's cheek with a napkin or eat off dad's plate). Later on, a video on each guy did expose several huge skeletons in their pasts.

One of the real fun parts was when each guy's ex-girlfriend showed up to lambaste her former mate (two said 'oh he cheated on me'). And in copying the movie of a similar name with Robert De Niro and Ben Stiller, the father hooked up the two finalists to a lie detector and both guys lied so badly, it was comical to watch the guy conducting the test to give so many thumb-downs.

One guy did win... but like the father said, they were better off dumping these three guys after the first night and bringing in three totally new guys. They were the sorriest bunch of liars and cheats you ever saw in your life, even if they did look good (not counting Chris who had a Schwarzenegger-esqe smile and expression).

Edited to add that I may consider doing an episode summary for the next show. It's a hoot so far...and probably worthy of a serious bashing thru an ep summ.

I agree with you CG, this show is too funny. I couldn't believe all the info that got revealed by these guys. And for the guys to sit there & not say anything while their ex-girlfriends got to bash them was hilarious.

The lie detector part was the best. I don't know how they got the idea that maybe they could lie to the lie detector & not get caught. The parents, who used who lied the least on the test as the deciding factor of who would go to Hawaii with their daughter, ended up with the guy who slept with his ex's mother instead of the guy who cheated on his SATs to get him into college. Talk about your moral dilemmas!

BTW-did anyone happen to notice the disclaimer at the end of the show stating that the winners of the trip have the option of taking separate vacations?

Yes I noticed that as well... probably trying to avoid the risk of a repeat of the Darva-Rick fiasco after "Who wants to marry a multi-millionaire" if it works out that the girl can't stand any of the three guys.

Wow! Where was Coach Dad when I was that young dating? Not only does he let the guy take his daughter to Hawaii for a week to screw around with, but he knows from the lie detector that afterr the guy dumps the daughter, he's coming after his wife!

I think Coach Dad picked the Arnold Swartznegger looking guy more as a prospective high school football player than he did for a future son-in-law. Sort of reminds me of the (true) story of a local coach here in Southern California who some years ago used to take 3-4 of his players home with him and his wife, um, entertained them.

Hey, you do what you have to do to keep good players happy, ya know?

Oh, ferchrissakes... can you say squirm? That was awful. I loved it. This is such a funny, funny show!

I think dear old dad chose the safer of the two. The guy with the money problems would have been my first one booted, too, and I think, as a parent, I would have scrapped the nympho as well. The daughter even said, "I don't think it will go anywhere..." Music to a dad's ears, I'm sure.

I missed the first episode but my husband told me it was hilarious. So I watched the second ep lastnight. I enjoyed it. I think the dad picked Anthony because he bonded the best with him. Never mind the daughter preferred Camron. I think the dad knew that Camron would cheat on his daughter and break her heart. Plus he was sure his daughter wouldn't sleep with Anthony in Hawaii because she wasn't attracted to him.

Jessica & her family appearred on one of those entertainment shows the following night and it was mentioned how Jessica may be seeing Camron on the sly & she laughed it off.
Personally I think the show is hilarious,in that slapstick sort of way.I think I also heard Jessica say to one of the guys when he came in how nice it was to see him again, so I wonder if the girls actually get a voice in who shows up.Does anyone know how they pick which guys show up?

I read a short article with Anthony in the EW magazine. He was laughing and saying he was given advice on how to beat the lie detector (I guess they knew about that in advance) and he said he lied a couple times and the guy gave him the thumbs up saying he was telling the truth. Then he said that Camron made the mistake of getting too close to the girl. He knew the way to win was to suck up to the parents (especially the dad). I wonder if Dad is happy he picked Anthony now?

I missed the first ep. but caught the second one and rewatched it 3 times that same night,introducing a new person, each viewing, to the Jaw-dropping hilarity of these 3 poor saps.(all for a trip to Hawaii?)Much like the movie that this show is based on. I found myself laughing in ways I wasn't quite aware I was capable of. In the beggining, I was hesitantly chuckling as the 3 guys tried to get their groove on. While the Father is being fed a videoconference tape of them trying to get their groove on. Then moving to a laugh reminicent of a sudden expulsion of air, like "OOF" as the ex-girlfriends show up for Breakfast and Bombshells. Only to find myself by the end of the program, laughing robustly (chortling and snorting really) and slapping my knees, every time I heard a knock at their door...or the beep of their fax machine.
This show has turned out to be the car wreck at the side of the road between Jerry Springer and ElimiDate, and I can't stop gawking at it, in a very uncomfortable, yet wholly satisfying way.

I think this show is great and as a mom to a teenage daughter I think that all dates should be chosen this way! But a question, how in the world are they going to have a second season of this show? After all half the fun is watching how the guys react to ex-girlfriends showing up, the doorbell ringing and the lie detector. Next season they would being expecting it, in other words they would be threatening family members and friends, sneaking valium into the house and learning deep breathing techniques for the lie detector and paying off old girlfriends!

Thanks y'all for pointing me to this show. Mr. Bebo and I were in hysterics watching last night! This could become a regular guilty pleasure for me.

We also agreed that her dad looked too young to be her father - he looked good! It is priceless watching their faces when the fax cranks up or the doorbell rings.

And last night's tasks at the dinner table were a riot! Poor mom.

I really like this show, but this last episode left a little to be desired. Dad liked the boys too much, the girl didn't seem the least bit involved (the last episode I saw, the girl was totally into the antics, even if she didn't get a say in the decision) and the boys got by without revealing their secrets at the first meeting.

Would have liked to see them squirm a little more, but still a super funny (uncomfortable) show.

I finally checked this show out last night, 8-5-02, and Canada Girl is right on...this show is hilarious. Last nights show had the same formula that has been reported here and elsewhere, and I am getting on the bandwagon...this is a bona fide hit show. My question is to whether the parents role is scripted....it is clear that the guys involved are clueless, but the Dad last night could have been Robert Duvall of the Great Santini...it was that good.

24. "RE: Meet My Folks is hilarious"
Last night's episode was the pilot that webby posted pictures of, and it was definitely different. There was no fax machine, no orders for the boys to act like fools at dinner (a touch I love!) and a whole lot of bland, mellow secrets about the guys. They weren't anything like the first episode I saw... It was still good, and very uncomfortable to watch, but a good cringe just makes me feel better I guess.

Next week, they're going to have 3 girls and one guy with his family. The girls are shameless it seems, flirting with dad and parading about in bikinis. They looked like super-girls in the promo, and apparently Mom gets to play the "bad cop" by asking the questions during the lie detector stuff and keeping them busy their first Saturday morning. Should be a funy one to watch.

Heehee, while looking at the NBC site to post the synopsis of next weeks show, I found this line near the end of it:

All three contestants spend a weekend with the Fresno, California family and are put through a battery of challenges in order to impress the parents and win the girl, including the infamous "Meet My Folks" lie detector test.
emphasis mine...

win the girl? Maybe they should write new one instead of cutting and pasting old ones. Funny.

Well, that's what we SBlows spoilers call a "foreshadowing" that Chris wasn't going to win it. I figured out that he was toast by about the 15 minute mark when he kept bragging he's going to Hawaii -- he must have said it about 6 separate times during the whole show. What a nutball.

C.J. won more out of default than by actually being the most deserving one -- yeah he was more upfront and honest, but this was the best they had?

Yes, it's now clear why this was the pilot and why they'd opted to not open the series with it.

...way too much "subtle" editing. My only surprise is why NBC didn't bury this episode in one of the Saturday night schedule slots.

Now next week looks funny...

I agree, Femme... I kept waiting for the fax and for the embarrassing questions at the dinner table. I also noticed there weren't any appearances by the ex-girlfriends either. It could be that they filmed this show first and then realized they needed to tweak it up a bit by adding the fax/dinner/exes stuff.

I also didn't think the past skeletons were as embarrassing as some of the first few episodes. Still, it was enjoyable as always to watch the squirming by the guys! It should be interesting to see how it works next week for the females as there probably will be more cattiness going on but might not be as interesting as they just don't blatantly lie like guys do (at least that's my experience). I hope the mom is an uber-##### so she can carve up the three girls at will... we'll see.

I read an interview on reality news online website (sorry I don't have the link) with the girl from the ranch episode from 8-5-02. This put some interesting perspective on how the show is made vs. what we saw in that episode. This was very interesting, and I recommend it to fans of this show, and of the reality genre.

I have friends that watched this episode as their first one. They didn't understand why anyone liked the show. So I guess it was a good reason not to use it as the pilot. I didn't really care for any of the guys. Chris reminded me of Eb from GREEN ACRES and I kept expecting him to call the dad Mr. Douglas.

Well, for anyone thinking that the show with 3 ladies couldn't be any worse than the ones we've already seen with 3 guys... you're wrong!

We got the so-called Girl Next Door who actually looks pretty nice and had a more agreeable personality (although she couldn't stop lying on the lie-detector) -- and we also had Barbie Doll who uses a paint roller to apply makeup and Silicon Sally (which is how the dad described her) with her massive ta-ta's.

The son made a show-long pitch to his parents to dump the nice girl next door saying he only had feelings for Silicon Sally (read: only had feelings for her bOObs). It was obvious the parents greatly liked Girl Next Door and would have chosen her for their son to go to Hawaii with, but his constant whining/pining for FakeTits meant that Silicon Sally won.

Highlight of the show? Barbie Doll's ex boyfriend said that she is always getting sugar daddies and "recently lived with a 60-year old." She was indignant and said "Well! First of all... he was NOT SIXTY YEARS OLD! HE WAS FIFTY-ONE! So there." Check your brains at the door, doll.

All in all, this was a real stupid show with nothing more than fluff as the girls hit on the dad too and he kept commenting how nice it was. I'd rather have the shows with the 3 guys -- it's better TV that way.

I was hoping somebody here had caught this last night. Mr. Lights and I fell asleep about half-way through and missed the end of the show. We knew that the son was all ga-ga for Silicone Sally but didn't think that Mom and Dad would go along with his choice. What did Girl Next Door lie about that was so terrible?

We have a 23 yr old son and we were laughing about how we would have handled the hot tub situation where the son was asking the three girls to flash him while Mom and Dad were watching on the tv inside. I asked Mr. Lights if he would have gone outside and told the kid to be a gentleman like this Dad did. Mr. Lights said, "Hell no, I would have pulled up closer to the tv!", so I threw a pillow at him! He swears he was just kidding!

I don't know who I would have picked if that was my son. None of them were even close to daughter-in-law material. I wasn't very impressed with the son either, for that matter. As far as I was concerned, he got what he deserved with Miss Silicone Boobs!

I agree Pepe, this show was horrible. Were these the best girls they could find? Bring back the 3 guys and a daughter setup. Works much better that way.

Lets see. The only one that I can remember her lying about was the question about her feelings for the guy. Pretty harmless I guess, but c'mon. She lied about 85% more than Silicone Sally. Plus she didn't even like the guy, or so she says. I think she was just pissed because he didn't like her.

Speaking of Silicone Sally, my favorite quote "I'm a gassy girl" Good heavans. lol I know everyone "passes gas" but a girl doing it because its "funny". She just seemed to brazen for me.

I didn't really like any of the girls, from a girls point of view. I can see why he liked the two with huge ta-tas. The blonde was pretty I guess, or would be if she didn't have on 10 pounds of makeup.

>What did Girl Next Door lie
>about that was so terrible?

Well, for one thing, she was caught lying when she said "no" to the question "Are you just using my son to win a trip to Hawaii" and other beauts similiar to that.

I'll give Silicon Sally a bit of credit -- she comes across as a lot more vacuous than Girl Next Door but she makes less of an effort to hide things and is more upfront. But I'll echo Crims, girl what the hell is up with your flatulence problem?!?

Having said that, if I were in the parents' position, she'd be second to Girl Next Door despite the latter's warts and all.

One revealing statement by the parents while they were trying to decide which one would go to Hawaii with their son: "Well, Silicon Sally probably won't last long with Josh anyway."

I think the problem with this show was that it was not believable that this guy would have his parents set him up with a date. When it is the parents of the daughter you believe that the parents could be overprotective and worrying about who is dating their daughter. But this guy was nothing like a momma's boy and old enough that the parents didn't have to worry about one of the girls taking advantage of him and hurting him.
