Infuriating, but I can't stop watching
2 October 2016
Warning: Spoilers
This is a gay male version of "The Bachelor." A bunch of infuriatingly handsome and dumb gay men in a SoCal house, and they are supposedly not fooling around with each other, but are all competing for another guy (Prince Charming, aka Robert Sepúlveda Jr.) who is also infuriatingly handsome, maybe not so dumb. Complications ensue. It's a totally annoying show that I absolutely have to watch.

An interesting facet of the show is the a few of the contestants are not really quite as handsome as the others. One, Charlie, is a hairy guy in not very good shape . . . and he's the first to be told to leave (in the show's parlance, "to give up his black tie" which Robert had formerly presented him with). Another,Danique, is a black man with a rather odd face--a huge forehead that just looks all wrong--and he's the second to be kicked out. There is also a girl-y guy named Robby who speaks in a high-pitched voice and is fully of stereotypical witticisms. He is attractive until he opens his mouth, then becomes a total turn-off, and ceases being handsome. He's the third to be asked to leave. Robert, aka Prince Charming, is great at telling these duds that he is sending them away because "he does not feel a connection," rather than because they are boner-killers. He's lives up to his name--"charming."

After those three leave, the house is left with only hunks--then the competition gets real.

Host Lance Bass is perfectly adequate in the role. Despite any flaws the show may have, I cannot stop watching. When it's on my DVR list of shows to watch, it's number 1.
