Thoughts on 'Geek'?
Anybody else watch the season premiere of Beauty and the Geek last night? I think there's some great potential for another fun season.
I'm not sure how the twist with the girl geek and guy beauty is going to play out since we only saw like 90 seconds of that yesterday. It looks like some of the other contestants aren't fond of this twist, but there was plenty of footage of the guy beauty in the "coming this season" footage, so I don't think they're going to get kicked off too soon.
As usual, there are a couple of geeks who look like they just need better haircuts and they'll be fine.
But on the other hand you have Joshua. This poor guy scored the worst on the social aptitude exam, but he and his partner, Shay (who scored the worst on the IQ test), are looking at it as having the most potential to grow.
I hope the vibe stays positive and not back-stabby. Not sure how that will play out since there were already some people not happy with Joshua and Shay's choices for partners. I also hope that having the hot guy around doesn't mean that the women forget that their mission is to get to know and to help the rest of the guys.
What did you think about the premiere?

Hey Sarah!
I thought the show was better than expected. Last season was dull, and my wife and I gave up watching. But the fourth season premiere seems to have some intrigue with a better cast.
The twist should cause some good drama -- unless, of course, they're booted quickly.
But with Joshua invoking some (season one) Richard-esque vibes, this should be a good run for the show.
