I gave this show a five, the highest score because they made some changes this season that were really good for the survival of the series.

I was very disappointed to see that Garrett in season one was cheated out of the $1000,000 he won for opting to take the money over the girl. The shows producers were appalled that a contestant would choose money over love. So instead of awarding Garrett the money, the “loosing” girl got to choose what charity to donate the money to.

This season, they solidified that the FBoy had the option to choose the money and actually keep it if they wanted to. That set the stakes higher, and introduced the girls ability to choose none of the two finalists, & opt to keep the money for herself. This really turns the tides and now gives the girls the same power as the FBoys.

We’ll done, and looking forward to season 3.… Expand

Hilarious. Doesn't take itself too seriously like other dating shows. Nikki Glaser is a gem. More original than other dating shows

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. In the right hands, the concept of the show would have a lot of potential. This wasn't the case though.
The 3 woman they selected aren't there for love. They are clearly there for fame and money. They have no substance and they are as dishonest and manipulative as the so called "fboys". Then I have issues with the production. So many scenes were clearly orchestrated where they told the contestants what to say. Bringing back people who were eliminated because they "ran away" from camp yet you reintroduce him to the show? They kept changing the rules as they saw fit and had no integrity. Even the rules regarding the prize money.. seriously, if you tell the fboys they will get 100k if they get a girl, give them the money! The girls are incredibly hot, but that's it. As one of the contestants said, they are glorified hookers who are essentially just Gold diggers and attention seekers. To deny giving the 100k to a guy for being honest to himself and giving his money to charity? The whole production team and casting team should be fired. Probably sued too.… Expand

A funny, zippy twist on a tired formula. Without comedian Nikki Glaser as host it wouldn't work as well, but thankfully she's a natural and makes you wonder why more comedians don't host these dating shows.
