OK, so what are they doing with this show, just COMPLETELY lifting the script from "Love Cruise"?

First they cast Toni back on the show... so then they vote in a (stop me if you've heard this before) 20-something, short haired, "generous" nosed (sorry shakes!) guy who just finished losing a huge amount of weight... and then upon arriving he immediately starts DECEIVING PEOPLE... hey shakes, you don't happen to have a cousin in Boston, do you?!?!

Didn't the whole show seem like they were just making up rules as they went along? I missed last week. How did that girl break up a couple and then get to stay? ( pick first)

Oh and I'm not a guy, but these have to be the most unatractive women on any Reality Dating show. Am I wrong? Because to me they just look skanky.

This show is bad.

( I may have to watch it again though, you know, the whole train wreck factor)

I think I remarked on another thresd around here that you KNOW it's a bad show when the hostess looks far and away better than the contestants.

Couldn't be more fun if Toni and Michael were roommates...

Rules? Vat ees thees "rules" ov vich yoo speek?

They even have the seasick girl pvking all over the beach... (are Chanda and Gina related?!!?!)

P.S. If you look REALLY closely, you'll see the SCRIPTS stuffed under pillows and sofa cushions. (j/k, but this show could not look more scripted if you did have it written out)

Okay, I'm officially offended. If I knew they were gonna get this ugly no personality loser to play my role I would've been more than happy to throw my talents into the fray. This is just an embarassment to my stereotype.

And Webby..

A. I JUST lost my huge amount of weight (70 lbs, not 69 like that quitter) SEVEN YEARS before going on Love Cruise.

B. Not only did I lose weight, but I also became good looking which is definitely not the case with Dumbo impersonator. I betcha you could take a picture of this guy, shade it in with crayons and then sell it on Ebay as an original Disney cell.

C. The nose thing...well, I've got nothing I can say there.

D. I actually have this thing that's called a "personality" unlike uhmmmm uhhhh uhmmmm WINNER. Gee that was clever.

E. I didn't start deceiving people until at least a third of the way through the game. Its called having a little tact as opposed to trying to form an alliance while the flight attendant hasn't even told you to lift up your tray table yet on the flight in from LA.


This guy is a total tool, I can't believe they didn't take the other guy who was friggen hilarious.

The problem is, of course, that Toni would've taken one look at Michael and said "No way in hell that THAT clown is coming onto my show AGAIN!!!"...

("clown" pun fully intended, of course )

Woops, sorry, for some reason I thought you'd completed losing the weight just before the show... maybe I'm confusing you with Big Brother's Jason

I have to agree for a "parental discretion" show and all, this is a rather unattractive cast. IMHO Charla is clearly the best looking girl, and it makes you wonder if they didn't make up that sudden "no one leaves the hotel without having had a roomy" rule.

The whole thing was awkward -- first the hostess says "remember how I said that in order to stay on the island, you were going to have to break up a couple?" -- then they say "to da, time to break up a couple, pick a guy" -- huh?... and then the girls seemingly select NEW PAIRS in an unspecified order such that, unless my memory is wrong, the girl that just lost her guy to Charla now suddenly given the huge additional DISADVANTANGE of having to go "guy picking" last and is put in the position of having a 50/50 chance of being booted no matter who she picks.

The whole thing just sounds like a la "Love Cruise", the producers are once again making it up as they go along.

-SB

PS There's something else the show shares with "Love Cruise" -- both tanked in their premiere and placed 4th in their timeslots: http://www.realitytvworld.com/index/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=1329

They were both tools.

Maybe he's Italian

And I never thought I would express this kind of thought, but this show makes Love Cruise look like Casablanca.


I seem to have an infinite capacity for watching "unscripted" crap.

LOL! First thing I thought of when they brought out Dave, was... Surely if they'd take this guy, they'd take Shakes. (no offense Shakes, you are definately, miles better)

Dave isn't really such a let down for this show, it has one of the ugliest casts I can recall seeing on these hook up shows. The women are especially unattractive. Toni looks older and scarier with each passing moment. I dunno, watching people puke and sweat is not my idea of paradise.

Oh, and the way the host says "you will leave paradise FOREVER" just makes me think, yeah sure, til they bring you back at the end to win whatever stupid prize they pull out of their a$$ at the last minute.

One more thing, I think it would have been better, to have the studio audience vote for who will enter "paradise". Not the DAW's, who are just gonna choose the one they think will be easiest to pick off.



Zzzzzzzz

11. "And another thing..."
Didja notice when the last girl picked a guy already with a girl, the others all just got up at the same time and moved out of the way? In other words, they knew what to do... in other words, they were at least told... and more likely rehearsed!

But to my point: When the ousted girl (Melanie?) left, everyone else was so somber and crying. Did this just not come across as so much FEBA (False Emotion Bull$#!+ Attitude)?!?! C'mon, they hardly knew this girl a WEEK, and ya know they're happy as hell that THEY weren't taking the walk of shame! Boo hoo hoo... (*pul-eeze*... now where did I put that eyerolling icon...)

It looks like Paradise Hotel is the worst reality show I have ever seen. I thought nothing was going to top the crap that was Love Cruise. But, I guess I was wrong. Also, what's the deal with the editing? Are we going to have to assume stuff happens when the lights go out, etc.... At least the Temptation Island folks had the balls to show what was going on (real or not).

Just wait until the next original creative idea from this production team comes along -- "Paradise Cruise"... or is that "Love Hotel"... or maybe it's "Hotel Cruise"

WOW! She really doesn't hold back, does she?

These were a couple of my favorite paragraphs-

I'm not sure what the prize at the end of this crapsterpiece is, but I'm sure it involves getting a square all to yourself on "Hollywood Squares" during "Reality Show Has-Been Week." "Yeah, I'll take that annoying bitch from 'Survivor: Outback' to block."

HA! "crapsterpiece" I'll have to remember that one.

So anyway, after 10 minutes of watching it, I almost deleted "Paradise Hotel" from my TiVo. I was afraid that it would give my other recorded shows a STD. But, for you dear readers, I watched the entire hour, because hey, I watch the crap so you don't have to, right?

LOL!

My favourite line from the article:

On the first night, one of the women sleeps with a man she knows doesn't like her in an attempt to get him to like her. I don't call that entertainment. I call that college.
