hi holli!

I don't see silver lamé pants very often! But the silliness of him all dressed up in them is part of what makes Matt so fun to watch.

He's just so affable and willing to accept everything that's going on. Appropos of nothing, Brian pulls out a xylophone and Earl is given a machine gun. There's a hooker as part of an immunity contest, Molly plays on every school girl fantasy known to man (right down to the braids!) and he just goes along with it, never outwardly questioning the sanity or lack thereof of everyone around him

That naive quality in him is what makes the show work. You couldn't have a savvy contestant and fool him for a sustained period of time. Most people probably wouldn't go along with all the ridiculous things they are asked to do. But Matt does and it's sweet and funny and horrifying at the same time. He's not stupid, just gullible and easy going and trying very hard to do the right thing (the way he is so careful around Kip).

I'm really enjoying it so far.
