Mr. Personality
 
So I'm not too thrilled about the birth of another reality show, but I have to say - - THIS ONE IS HOSTED BY MONICA LEWINSKY!! BWHAHAHAHAHHAHA.

Ah well....Let the discussion begin:

Monica Lewinsky...LOL.

Yeah this show looks like a winner. *cough*

The masks they have to wear are ridiculous.

FAB*SpiceySpice 04-15-2003 10:15 PM

Hahah I saw an ad for this the other night and Elise (one of my roommates) and I just laughed it off as another dumb reality show. Then they busted out with Monica Lewinsky being the host and we almost wet our pants. WTF are they thinking!?!?!?!? Hahaha, I have to watch solely for that! :D

oooooh goodness....

MoxieGrrl 04-15-2003 10:20 PM

hahahah......yeah, I like when the guys are in the hot tub with their masks on.

And what's up with her snuggling in bed with a masked man?? I don't remember actually getting into bed with people part of reality shows?!

It looks like she's on a date with a mexican wrestler.

So let's see:

1) They wear these goofy looking masks
2) It's hosted by Monica Lewinsky
3) The guys they pick for this probably won't look that bad to begin with
4) They start commercials for this show with the biggest lie I've ever heard: "Ask a girl why she picked her man, and most likely she WON'T say looks"

I'm pretty sure that our society will turn in about a 20 million viewer share.

would this show actually work??

I mean, i have yet to see one of these dating 'reality' shows with nasty looking people. sure some of them may never be models, but 90% of them actually could if they tried.

i guess it depends on people's preferences..

PhiSigSandy 04-20-2003 01:28 AM

Monica Lewinsky???? hahahahahaha
this show will surely be a winner!!!!!


NOT!!!!!

Although it is sure to be a "train wreck" along the lines of "Married By America" and "Are You Hot?", I must fess up and admit that I plan to watch this. :o :o

grumble
 
seeee......high school was a lil rough for me b/c of good ol' monica lewinsky......i had such great friends who, everyday, would have yet another witty, funny, and oh-so-appropriate "monica joke". :rolleyes: no i've never been to the oval office, i don't smoke, etc. cigars, and i always dry-clean my clothes when stained, thanks.

so...this is not a show i personally will be watching, although i'm sure it will be emmy worthy.........:rolleyes:

Since it comes on after Boston Public, I will probably tune in...at least for the first episode. However, yes, I am sure it will be an even bigger train wreck than the others.

Along the lines of Monica Lewinsky and the reality tv thing...

Monica Lewinsky Joins Reality TV Ranks
Saturday April 19 3:39 PM ET


Monica Lewinsky, who knows about the risks of sharing romantic confidences, sticks to listening in the new reality TV dating show, "Mr. Personality."

Lewinsky gets high marks from Hayley, the 26-year-old Atlanta woman who searches for true love among 20 masked men with Lewinsky by her side for support. The Fox series debuts Monday.

"She's exactly what I needed to get through the whole thing," said Hayley, whose last name was withheld by Fox. "More than a host, she was like my buddy, my best friend, my confidant, the big sister I never had."


Lewinsky didn't talk about her personal life and Hayley didn't ask.

"What's happened is in the past with her. She's moved on, she's doing other things," Hayley said Friday. "I didn't even go there with her. She probably wouldn't feel comfortable rehashing it."

Lewinsky was a White House intern who had a sexual relationship with President Clinton. She discussed it with her friend Linda Tripp, who secretly recorded the talks and handed the tapes over to investigators.

Hayley, of course, knew her chats with Lewinsky were on the TV record as they assessed potential dates all with their faces hidden so Hayley would have to judge them on character, not appearance.

"She was someone who was a listener. She played the role so wonderfully," Hayley said of Lewinsky. "She's so warm and so thoughtful, and she just wanted me to make the right decision as much as I did."

Is the unlucky-in-presidential-love Lewinsky a good counselor?

"I wouldn't exactly call her a dating guru. A lot of reporters have asked that question, what merits her as someone to give you advice about dating," Hayley said. But Lewinsky served as a sounding board, not adviser, she said.

"When I had someone there to talk to, it made my decisions easier," Hayley said.

Lewinsky declined a request to be interviewed.

The program has its own interesting pedigree. One of its executive producers, Bruce Nash, is a reality TV pioneer whose early efforts included the likes of "Prisoners Out of Control."

Lewinsky, who has been designing handbags, was picked as host for two reasons, said executive producer Brian Gadinsky.

"First, tune-in, curiosity. We thought she'd be a great choice to garner interest in the show," Gadinsky said Friday. "It's worked. Everybody's talking about it."

Lewinsky also was right for the job, he said: "We wanted to find someone who had the attributes of a great personality, who was very friendly. Someone who was not a cutout, not polished, but accessible."

Lewinsky, a TV novice, worked hard, Gadinsky said.

She became "the darling of everybody associated with the show for her professionalism, her kindness," he said. "She appreciated the people who worked hard to help her do her job properly. She was a joy to work with."

He called the job a "whim" for Lewinsky, who had been in general discussions with Fox when the show emerged as an opportunity.

Lewinsky told Newsweek magazine she's unsure whether she'll continue in television and is considering law school or graduate school in psychology.

"I'm trying to see what is going to work best for me and what is my career," she said. "I'm trying to figure out my life."
