"Millionaire Matchmaker" (2007)

Worst Show Ever? Probably, 11 marzo 2008
Author: Rick Reynolds da Los Angeles
"Millionaire Matchmaker" is probably the worst show to ever be on television. I cannot imagine a more repulsive television program being produced, even if a TV producer made repulsive television their goal.
I will not attack anyone involved in or on the show personally, as I believe that is wrong. However, I will say that this television program is only watched by people who enjoy the way it dances around the fine line between gold-digging and prostitution. I have friends who enjoy this show and that is what they get a kick out of... watching guys who should settle for sweet, less attractive, less interesting women pay a faux-madame to set them up with porn stars, strippers, and struggling actresses who one day might be porn stars and strippers.
Honestly, I can see why people find it amusing to watch terribly misguided people do terribly misguided things, but I find it too revolting to laugh.
In the episode that I watched, I found it pretty repulsive until I saw the owner of the agency demand that a potential client whose mother was in the hospital had to be pursued immediately for a cashier's check. That is when I realized this was more disgusting than anything that had ever been on television before. I would hope that scene would demonstrate to potential clients why they should not send in their money.
This has got to be the worst show ever.
I actually really enjoyed this show., 18 agosto 2008

I know everyone who has a comment on this show says it's revolting and awful but I beg to differ. In my opinion, it's a good way to see how other people live. It may not relate to anybody that has a family and/or a career, but it's a way to look into how shallow some men are and how desperate some young women are. I find it highly entertaining, and it's one of the few shows that doesn't have anything to do with drugs or sex, and has minimal language. I think we can all agree with that, right? People who enjoy watching factual, more educational programs wouldn't enjoy this. But, a young generation of kids would watch this if they're into Hollywood pop culture. I really like the show but I hear that it was canceled, I hope not!
Fiddler on the Roof ... this is NOT!, 16 giugno 2008

The Millionaire Matchmater - well - its a title that has many possibilities for a development for a TV series, a movie of the week - even a feature film cast with endearing "girl-next-door" types trying to find a mate who they later find out ...is really a millionaire!
But this tripe is none of that, don't be fooled. It is teetering on the borderline of things we've seen other women in the past few decades go to jail for - just because this woman has a TV show, and an office and employees to whom she "sends out to find the right kinda gal" on the streets (oh, boggles the mind!) what makes her any different? That's a question you'll have watching this program.
The Millionaire Matchmaker takes us through the "business" of a woman who is a "headhunter for love" -- for millionaires. "Headhunter for Love??!?" Even that phrase makes me wanna shout "Objection! Cause for Speculation!" Even if you keep an open mind, you'd think that this would be endearing, interesting -- exciting. Instead it is turning out to be boring, unbelievable and very close to --- disgusting. Where the disgust? The dating? No. The Courtship? What courtship - that would be a show. Sex? Oh yes, this show is about sex and sexuality for "millionaires" who "can't find anyone" and go to this woman to help them. The matchmakers advice to both client and millionaire: "Don't have sex for 3 months" The client's and Millioniare's response, "OKay, sure" Yeah, right!
What bothers me the most wasn't even about the sex and sexuality. We're all human beings and that does play into attraction. But what got to me that with every show I saw so far the dialog was like this:
Matchmaker: "What kind of woman are you looking for?" Millionaire: "Oh, I dunno. Good looking, nice, in shape." Matchmaker: "Are you looking for a long term relationship? Marriage -Kids?" Millioniare: "Sure - Okay. Maybe"
Are you telling me.... that a man with oodles of money, jets, first class tickets on airlines, businesses, et al -- cannot FIND this kind of woman anywhere in the world and HAS to go to this matchmaker?!?! Heck even Bill Gates, one of the shyest billionaires in the world, knew how to find a wonderful mate without THIS kind of woman.
That's what makes this show utterly unbelievable. We KNOW what HE is looking for and we KNOW what the women they brought in are looking for and We KNOW what this matchmaker gets for doing this.
Add this all up - and lets be honest: Xaviera Hollander, Sydney Biddle Barrows and Heidi Lynne Fleiss together SHOULD be offered a show on Bravo to show this woman exactly what she is doing and why most viewers can see though it.
Goshawful show. No bravo here for BRAVO network.
