I was unsatisfied with the ending...I hoped they would at least do a recap of all of the women.

It was also a letdown to see who had made a connection--none of the women I considered relatively normal, of course. I know it's a small sampling but the message seems to be, guys don't want relatively normal, well-adjusted women!

CGUN, I thought of you when that one woman at the beginning had the date with the guy she hadn't seen a picture of...and she's like, never again, just like you ;-)!

Isn't Maryam foreign also? I thought she said in one of the earlier episodes that she was Iranian and I thought she had a bit of an accent so I was thinking she was born there and moved to the US at some point.

I found this show quite entertaining, although I thought during Maryam's segments, my feline varmints had inadvertently switched the channel to Showtime's "Weeds"... was she stoned the entire time they were shooting?

Then what a shocker to find out she was the only one who'd "found love"! She hadn't even found a grasp of the English language!! I think you're right, Sheri -- it didn't seem like HE'D mastered the tongue, either! (ooops... I mean "tongue" in the sense of the LANGUAGE!)

I will say, I was impressed that the producers (Mr. Terence Wrong himself) didn't litter this show with supermodels. These folks were as average looking as can be... although I wonder if they did the requisite reality-show psychological testing on them. Some of them sure seemed like the elevator didn't go all the way to the top.

Bring on Season Two!!!!!

I wonder how long it took them. Since they had taped in all seasons, did they have to follow these women for a year just to get a few episodes? And how many women did they follow that we never got to see? I wonder how sick of dating the camera guys got, just sitting there through boring date after boring date, either having to follow it to the bitter end or getting kicked out when there was an actual hook-up.

No, no update on them...presumably they stuck to the breakup from the previous episode.
