The premise of the show is as you would expect, a 30 minute show detailing blind dates. Unfortunately as a viewer, you don't get much.
1) The show takes place at an Earl's Restaurant in the lower BC Mainland
2) There are three couples highlighted each episode
3) Each episode starts with an introduction to the first couple one at a time as each person enters the restaurant. Person #1 comes in, we get a little intro, they sit at the bar. Person #2 comes in, we get an intro, and they're introduced to the date and eventually seated. We then get a bit of banter from their date
4) #3 is repeated for the next two couples until the show is almost half over
5) We move from table to table to get some of the banter from the couples
6) Almost like clockwork, one of the pairs will go to the bathroom and make a phone call (it never fails)
7) We see the couple leave one at a time
8) We have a talk with each of the couples in a back room on stools to see how the date went, any future dates, etc
9) Just before the closing credits, we get a single line update on each couple like 'Jane enjoyed her date with Dick, but decided that they would never be more than friends'
Unfortunately, with 23 minutes to fill, and three dates being focused on, there really isn't anything for the viewing audience to bite into. You don't get enough of their personalities, or any sense of how the date is going from the banter to be able to sit there, watch, and root for a couple to hit it off. It's almost like you're at the same restaurant and these couples are at tables surrounding yours, they're just there, every few minutes you hear something that makes you look over, but nothing to make you invested in the result. As these episodes are shown back to back, I did watch two episodes and got the same lack of vibes from both episodes. Not must-see watching, just a so so time waster.
