I didn't (and won't) watch, but I really enjoyed your recap.

I think you nailed the situation. None of those guys would want to be a serious father figure to four step kids... nor would she be satisfied with any of these shallow specimens.

I hope the space aliens aren't judging our planet based on our TV shows. If so, we are surely doomed!

this show is just wrong, why are these guys on the show? There are tons of older women wondering around out there that would date younger guys (i'm guessing). This sort of feels like a casting call.

the whole 'kiss me (insert name here)' this just gets creepier with each kiss, there is just something so dirty about it

There already was a show that pitted older women against younger women vying for the 'heart' of some tennis player. That show really sucked.

Wish I could watch this one, but TVLand won't let me (fuckers)...looks like it'll make a great trainwreck.

Why is the cougar's face always twisted up?

L Boogie! I'm glad you found a new show to recap, but I am sad you have to sit through this every week. haha.

I may have to start watching it, too, so I can follow your recaps, because in the infamous words of Mr. Guy Patterson: "You. Are. My. Biggest. Fan!"

here4beer, the fact you just made a "That Thing You Do!" reference makes me totally want to marry you (you know if it weren't for the I'm already married thing).

LBoogie, funny recap, although I'm going nowhere near this show.

Kevin ripped off the "Australian Kiss" joke off the youtube video titled Martine's "Australian Kiss" for Mark Furze (@ 1:53!) SSep6

JasonR:

C'mon. So far no one's willing to watch with me! Guess I'll have to suffer alone. I used to have a bf named Jason R. I hope you're not him....you're not from jersey and unable to commit are you? :-)

itchy:

You're not missing much but did you try tvland.com? If you really want to suffer, try to watch the episode there. And yes, there is something up with her face but I didn't want to say anything and risk sounding jealous or ageist. Yikes!

here4beer:

You're back! You have to watch, no one else will so far.

carol:

That kissing thing is beyond gross. Plus these guys are young so you know there's STDs floating around not to mention mono, cold sores etc...These guys are in my age range so it's ok for me to stereotype - right? :-)

Glad you enjoyed it! If she had one or two kids, maybe she'd have a shot; but four kids! None of these guys are looking for that kind of responsibility.

here4beer & JasonR: Swingin's good, right?

I TiVo'd this show in the perverse hope that my wife would watch it, and I could a) make fun of her and b) satisfy my morbid curiosity. But I came to my senses and decided to just read the recap instead. Sounds like I chose wisely.

Sorry so late to chime in here, but this was some funny-ass stuff! Way to go L-Boogie, I hope this show doesn't destroy your faith in reality-TV stupidity.

love, J-Mo :)

Thanks fam; this show has only increased my faith in the depths of stupidity allowed on TV. I'm a believer!

Clearly the biggest winner is the twin brother (Grant) who took himself off the show. He escaped STD-free and salvaged his cougar reputation. Lets be honest, if "winning" this show gets you a senior citizen and 4 kids....NO ONE WINS!!!

Have any of these people ever heard of mono?

Or oral herpes?

They have now.

40 isn't exactly "senior citizen!" But, this reality show is probably the most difficult to watch. The kiss off--eewwww! It seems if they really wanted to do a "cougar" show, they should have had someone a little more edgy, not a overly botoxed soccer mom.
