Fantastic concept!! ABC has unleashed a new 'reality'-tv series called "Dating in the Dark". .

"Dating in the Dark is a unique alternative series that asks the age-old question, "Is Love Blind?" Each week, three single men and three single women, all looking for love, will move into a house together, but be totally sequestered from the opposite sex. While they will have no chance of seeing each other in the light, they will have the opportunity to date in a completely dark room. Looks will be taken out of the equation as the men and women get to know each other and form bonds in total darkness. After several days of dating in the darkroom, the participants will select the one member of the opposite sex that they want to see revealed in the light. For the first time, the participants will see whom they've been dating, wooing, kissing, snuggling with and forming bonds with. And after they see each other in the light for the first time, they have to make the difficult decision, do they stay with the person they fell for in the dark, or leave them behind?"

Episode 1 here!!

I thought you were trying to be smart. .

As for the show I wouldn't be sharing it if I didn't think it was interesting, but ultimately it's up to you, how you want to spend those 40 minutes (episode length) of your life.

Re: Dating In The Dark by Gentlelady(f): 9:15am On Aug 05, 2009
It sound interesting!  Removes emphasis on looks.  But shocker fit dey when dem reveal o!
Re: Dating In The Dark by xqwysyte(f): 9:29am On Aug 05, 2009
it sounds interesting yeah.

But what if they discover they dont like the looks of the person they have "fallen in love" with, i dont think they would say that infront of national tv and seem like a shallow person.

The idea is a bit flawed.

Noone will want to admit they do not want to keep seeing someone that they have been gettin along with all because of looks.

That's what you think!! A few guys mentioned that after feeling the frame of their chosen girl in the dark, that they weren't sure whether they wanted to even meet her or continue things, this is before seeing her.

Another guy said his match's personality was truly amazing, but when he saw her in person, he couldn't help but say "She doesn't stand out" and then continued to comment on her 'bad' skin.

American tv is very dramatic and unlike other cultures American's seem more honest on television and blunt if anything, especially on the dating shows.
