Review: "Next" (Part 2)

I wrote a bit about "Next" a while back, and I've decided to post the second part. Here's the last part of that review!

So the girls wait on the bus, and cattiness is high. The first girl to go leaves them with a smart-aleck remark, and stands in front of the bus and poses. As she’s posing, 3 statistics about her show up on the screen. They are normally the strangest things possible. For example, as one blonde hair, blue eyed girl posed in front of the bus, these statistics showed up:

-Loves to bite her toenails
-Can’t stand the name “Greg”
-Wants to strip on the moon

When the guy meets each girl, he can say “Next!” at any time, and the next girl will come out and replace the girl that he’s with currently. Almost every time, no matter what, the guy says “Next!” to the first girl. She normally says something like, “Yeah, I didn’t like you anyway!” The guy comes onscreen and says something like, “ I was looking for a girl that I could take out to eat, not someone I’d be worried would eat me!” This comment almost always goes along with the view that almost every girl is fat.

As the rejected girl walks away from the guy back to the bus, a woman voices over yet another corny line.
“Mark wanted someone fit, but Candi’s body just wasn’t a hit!”

“Mark was looking for a girl with long hair. Mandi’s noggin was just too bare!”

“Mark envisioned a gorgeous beauty. The only good thing was Andi’s booty!”


Oh, those lines make me sick.

The guy goes through the girls, one by one, until he finds one he doesn’t mind hanging out with. They hang out for a while, and at the end of the show, the girl has the chance to go on a second date with him or take one dollar for each minute she spent with him. The choice varies, but when the girl chooses the guy, the viewers are supposed to believe that they live happily ever after.

This show is the most ridiculous, most unrealistic show I’ve ever seen. The corny lines are abundant, and overused. If you ever are clicking through the channels and see this show, don’t waste precious minutes of your life watching it. It’s a waste of channel space.
