'Beauty and the Geek's Pair Up for New Season
More social awkwardness lies ahead
November 28, 2006

'Beauty and the Geek' Season 3A whole new crop of brainy but awkward guys will meet with attractive but academically challenged women in the third season of Ashton Kutcher and Jason Goldberg's ("Punk'd") social experiment, "Beauty and the Geek."

The CW announced Tuesday (Nov. 28) that the reality show will make its two-hour season premiere on Wednesday, Jan. 3 and will continue in that timeslot for eight consecutive episodes.

"In 'Beauty and the Geek,' Ashton and Jason have created a compelling and entertaining examination of how society views appearance and intelligence, and the third edition is easily the best one yet," says the CW's President of Entertainment, Dawn Ostroff. "This series is the perfect companion to seamlessly bridge our two cycles of '[America's Next] Top Model' this season and continue The CW's momentum on Wednesday nights."

The formula for the contest will remain the same: each geek will pair with a beauty for a chance to win a $250,000 grand prize. In order to compete, the women must learn some intellectual skill from their partner, while the men will in turn learn some social skills. In the past, the female contestants have had to learn how to give a speech and read a map, while the guys were challenged with shopping for women's clothes and dancing in front of an audience.

This season promises similar awkward challenges. The guys will brush up on their performance and humor skills to deliver a stand-up routine and then get over their embarrassment and hormonal upheaval when asked to sketch a nude model. The women will have to stay on top of current events for a television newscast and become knowledgable enough to act as museum tour guides.

Here are the names and hometowns of each of the beauties, followed by their respective geeks:

Tori -- Elk Grove, Illinois
Sanjay -- Westminster, California

Sheree -- Live Oak, Florida
Piao -- Lorton, Virginia

Nadia -- Burr Ridge, Illinois
Mario -- Bridgeport, West Virginia

Jennylee -- Sherman Oaks, California
Neils -- Berkeley, California

Cecille -- Los Angeles, California
Nate -- Evergreen, Colorado

Erin -- Chicago, Illinois
Drew -- Chicago, Illinois

Andrea -- Kansas City, Missouri
Matt -- Goldens Bridge, New York

Megan -- Boca Raton, Florida
Alan, aka "Scooter" -- Cambridge, Massachusetts

Oh great I can't wait I'm watching the reruns on MTV.

Now I have something to look foreward to at the new year! I think Rob likes this show too...

Wait...they're showing reruns on MTV too?

reedthis · « **Reply #3 on:** November 29, 2006, 07:03:39 PM »

Yeah it comes on at 6 pm. Last week the show the first season and this week the second. They even show the reunion show from the first season.

TheCinera · « **Reply #4 on:** November 29, 2006, 07:08:22 PM »

Is it on every night at 6? Then, dang, I missed it!

reedthis · « **Reply #5 on:** November 29, 2006, 07:23:01 PM »

It will be back on tomorrow and Friday at 6 so check it out.

Whew, found this JIT!

B n'G starts TONIGHT!

Had I not been looking for something else, I would've missed the premier eppy!!

TheCinera · « **Reply #7 on:** January 03, 2007, 10:04:07 AM »

It's been so long since this show was on air! I think it was last January that Season 2 premired.

The CW is also showing repeats of the latest episode every Sunday too. That way you have no excuse if any of you miss it tonight

.

RudyRules · « **Reply #8 on:** January 04, 2007, 04:22:04 AM »

It was on at 7pm MST...so don't you easterners get it at 8pm...same as Survivor?

Whatever, I watched my tape of it and really enjoyed it! I love the "social experiment" concept, and how they teach and learn from each other.
More later cuz I can't remember all their names...and i'm falling asleep!

CeeeJay · « **Reply #9 on:** January 04, 2007, 11:06:51 AM »

yeah so i watched the show last night and the guys are nerdier than every and the girls are dumber than ever...thank god the team that left left...so obnoxious!! i wont give it away because some of you missed it....but i it was a disappointment for me this episode.

Bashful · « **Reply #10 on:** January 04, 2007, 12:18:50 PM »

I'm bummed. My TV directory shows that we should be able to pick up the CW station, but we don't. No cable or satellite, just ancient antenna technology. So, I wonder if the episodes are available for download somewhere. Anybody know?

CeeeJay · « **Reply #11 on:** January 04, 2007, 01:23:29 PM »

i watched it on the canadian station ctv.

city tv...and i checked you can't watch online...um...try youtube or something download it?

TheCinera · « **Reply #12 on:** January 04, 2007, 09:43:00 PM »

I missed it last night because I had to work and my DVR did not record it!

BUT, I did just finish watching it from a download online (PM me if you want to know, cause I can't say on the boards). Good stuff, funny even.

"Must be a tiger shark!"

CeeeJay · « **Reply #13 on:** January 11, 2007, 09:08:36 AM »

so last night was MUCH Better than the first week.....just in case you missed last night...

I'm not totally liking the direction it is going....Blondes vs Andrea Sheree...

Andrea and Sheree are the only ones that are taking this seriously and they are learning alot and are super smart it turns out!!! Sheree was booted off yseterday...guess the producers want to have the battle of the dumbasses in the end...Cecile is a little tramp i'm not liking her very much after yesterday...Piao and Sheree just fought too much to learn from eachother. Erin says the dumbest things (well if i remember correctly it was her last night that said the following) they found out they had to learn about flight and space history and she said oh my god this is hard...what if we end up ON THE MOON OR FLYING A PLANE!!!! COME ON!!! Can it be real? Are they that dumb?!~

TheCinera · « **Reply #14 on:** January 11, 2007, 09:32:20 AM »

I would have to agee, last night's episode ruled. Mario proved a great point: "The girls are in cliques, while the guys are all not. The girls could learn something about social interactions from the guys."

I'm glad Sheree & Paio were eliminated. I never warmed up to them at all.

CeeeJay · « **Reply #15 on:** January 11, 2007, 09:57:52 AM »

the blondes need to step up their game because if Nadia and Andrea win ....they are in TROUBLE!

take a look at the order. the first two are in order of their elimination. did someone goof when they published the list?

TheCinera · « **Reply #17 on:** January 11, 2007, 10:24:41 AM »

Wow, great find cinni! I never thought about looking up there to see any patterns, seems like I accidently spolied the entire season for you all.

So it looks like Mario/Nadia is next. Lets hope not, cause I like those two.

CeeeJay · « **Reply #18 on:** January 11, 2007, 10:29:48 AM »

well megan is just as dumb as cecile...hope she doesn't win either!

cinni · « **Reply #19 on:** January 11, 2007, 01:57:32 PM »

i won't bet on this being the order, it may just be for the first two only. i just thought i'd ask to see if anyone else thought that it was kind of interesting. may not be spoiled yet.

BballKates · « **Reply #20 on:** January 12, 2007, 02:34:16 PM »

I don't see Megan and her partner making it to the final, she is probably the dumbest girl there. My money would be on Mario and Nadia or Andrea and Matt.

TPorter2 · « **Reply #21 on:** January 28, 2007, 07:14:50 PM »

I'm really rooting for Mario and Nadia, because they seem to be genuinely nice people. Cecille? Not so much...

I agree. The rest of the girls I don't feel like they are there for the right reasons. Cecille is conceited and the way she acted last week was very inappropriate.

TPorter2 · « **Reply #23 on:** February 01, 2007, 06:01:38 AM »

So sorry to see Mario and Nadia go home. Mario did a great job in the phone number challenge. He just said he was working on his social skills and managed to avoid sounding creepy. Nate did better because he actually has a great personality and is the least geeky of the geeks. Nate won me over when he stopped Cecille from pimping the dog with bracelets around its neck. The doghouse challenge looked tough, I thought it should have been longer. Good episode, sad ending. I guess I am rooting for Scooter and Megan now...

CeeeJay · « **Reply #24 on:** February 01, 2007, 09:12:21 AM »

I don' tlike Niels but I really like Jennylee....I like watching her relationship unravel too!!!

TheCinera · « **Reply #25 on:** February 01, 2007, 10:26:53 AM »

Sad to see Mario/Nadia gone. Mario did great in the challenge. He should have won it, because he had a great and safe way to ask girl's their digits. I wanted them to go up against Nate/Cecile in the finals.

Cecile is strong competetor. When I saw her on Episode 1, I knew she'd make far into the game. Sorry to go against all of you, but I'm rooting for Nate/Cecile to win this thing. Although, Scooter has had the greatest tranformation out of all of them.

bb_batgirl · « **Reply #26 on:** February 01, 2007, 07:00:00 PM »

Sad to see them go because Mario seemed like a great guy..but can anyone really be as dumb as Nadia?? Tools..what are those?? Come on. I'm glad to see that Megan won a challenge by shocker....actually practicing the skills. As the wife of a geek..I really love this show!

CeeeJay · « **Reply #27 on:** February 02, 2007, 09:12:11 AM »

what didn't make sense to me was....the tools task the geeks wouldn't do...non of them seem like they use tools so why would they have a challenge that neither the beautys or the geeks would really do?

RudyRules · « **Reply #28 on:** February 02, 2007, 04:15:17 PM »

I'm not looking b/c I must watch it on Sundays. Thankfully, they are airing the one where they go to SDiego also on Sunday. That's the only one I've missed. I'm taping the whole season, and will comment on who I love/love2hate after I'm all caught up!!

TPorter2 · « **Reply #29 on:** February 15, 2007, 06:36:37 AM »

Very satisfying conclusion! The vilest reality show contestant ever was denied just because of her ickiness! It re-cemented my Mario and Nadia love. And Scooter and Megan were actually deserving. Yay!

CeeeJay · « **Reply #30 on:** February 15, 2007, 09:34:19 AM »

ceci drove me BONKERS!!! I can't believe that whats his name Matt...gave her his vote??? she called him a gerbil and a guinnea pig!!! I really really liked Nate...but man he got the short end of the stick...if he and jenny lee were partners...they would have totally won!!! or even with Nadia!!

good job I'm satisfied with the winners!!! Megan might have flown under the radar but she never was mean like cecile....called sheree and everyone else too many names!!!

TheCinera · « **Reply #31 on:** February 15, 2007, 10:05:22 AM »

The ending was great. For once, a team that diserved to win has "become more than just the Beauty & The Geek"! Just to comment on Nate's strategic plan, it was a nicly manuvered and humble idea of his. Cecile didn't even grow AT ALL during the show. She was just in it for the money, and Nate recognized it perfectly.

Next week, a Beauty and/or Geek got married! How much do you bet that it is Nate and Jennylee?

CeeeJay · « **Reply #32 on:** February 15, 2007, 10:15:37 AM »

wow ...maybe its from a previous season?

really? i didn't see that part? didn't i read somewhere that two from the 2nd season hooked up too? maybe it's them? more likely, just one of the above kind of thing but some from their season will be there. i'll have to watch for that next week unless they're not showing it up here.

the look on cc's face when she saw how it was going to be decided...priceless. the other three were very happy.

and nate

when he realized what it would mean if his team won and he actively campaigned against himself, wow! now there's a real man and i hope he and jennylee are still together and happy.

TheCinera · « **Reply #34 on:** February 15, 2007, 01:51:31 PM »

Neither of you saw the previews for next week's reunion? Geez...

I'm guessing, since it's the third season reunion, the married person (or people) is in the third season. But, you never know...

got to love those canadian stations. sometimes we win..sometimes not. they showed absolutely nothing so i'm not sure we're even going to see the reunion show. but boy i sure want to. sometimes i can get the usa only shows on my satallite dish. fingers crossed for sure.

TheCinera · « **Reply #36 on:** February 15, 2007, 06:39:50 PM »

Oh I see. Well, if you don't get the episode on your canadian station, then I'll be sure to tell you what happened in the reunion show!

im so mad CECE didn't win, she deserved it

i mean i know she didn't change

but gamewise she was the janelle of BATG

TheCinera · « **Reply #38 on:** February 15, 2007, 11:11:19 PM »

BballKates · « **Reply #41 on:** February 16, 2007, 01:46:01 PM »

Janelle and CC are nothing alike are you kidding me, what show were you watching. People actually LIKE Janelle, so there is one huge difference. CC said more stupid crap than any person on reality television, Janelle is smart and knows how to work people without intentionally hurting their feelings.

Frnchfry34 · « **Reply #42 on:** February 16, 2007, 02:38:52 PM »

i ment as in looks and winning challanges nothing do do with personality.

TheCinera · « **Reply #43 on:** February 16, 2007, 06:20:41 PM »

That's what I meant too. They look so much alike, and they're extremely competitive.

according to my newspaper tv guide, the reunion show is being shown tonight! yippee!

TheCinera · « **Reply #46 on:** February 21, 2007, 08:04:26 PM »

Is it just me, or was this a horrible reunion show? I thought it would have been the reuniting of the entire cast and discussing the show, not showing clips and doing one-on-one interviews.

At least Mario got married!

CeeeJay · « **Reply #47 on:** February 22, 2007, 08:47:01 AM »

cin i was thinking the same thing...what kind of show was that!! ceci still is a b=tch ...nils' hair is so long and it so looks like he's using the flat iron!!!!

jennylee and nate are so cute....i want to see more updates to see if they work out!! nadia and erin are bestfriends?? notice when i think it was erin saying who she still talks to .. u notice she said sheree!! and said everyonel...but not cecile?? cause she's too cool to have friends outside her LA friends...

Ashton Kutcher's experiment can't work for everyone!~

CeeeJay · « **Reply #48 on:** February 22, 2007, 08:47:54 AM »

just thought of something.

what about beauty and the geek where the guys are the beauty and the girls are the geekS??? i'd like to see that!

TheCinera · « **Reply #49 on:** February 22, 2007, 08:59:37 AM »

I think that would be a great idea for the show, CeeeJay. I've pondered it before, but I don't know if it would work the same way as the regular version.

CeeeJay · « **Reply #50 on:** February 22, 2007, 12:21:29 PM »

i really hope they do because it would be a great view!!

cinni · « **Reply #51 on:** February 22, 2007, 12:56:59 PM »

i agree, that really wasn't much of a reunion show. i would have liked to see them all together making comments now that the show was over. the top 5 moments part wsa good tho. and of course nate and jennylee back together. but i didn't get the impression they were taking up where they left off. more that good friend vibe which is too bad, sigh.

CeeeJay · « **Reply #52 on:** February 22, 2007, 01:41:04 PM »

cinni i was thinking the same thing!!

i would have liked to see ppl confront cecile like they did erica on the bachelor reunion.

top 5...number one was soooooooo funny i remember raising one eyebrow as i watched it originally....it would have been funny to see a panel of them and them getting asked by the host what was realyl going on there!

BballKates · « **Reply #53 on:** February 22, 2007, 07:14:18 PM »

That's great that Mario got married, I hope it works out for him. I wish there would have been interaction between everyone, maybe they did that for a reason though.

Good news for people who wanted a reunion show. I was browsing through the tv guide and Sunday at 8 pm they are having a reunion special!

And BballKates is right because 'Geek' is on The CW, and the Oscars are on ABC.

Sorry I haven't posted much here...just have too many shows! And a Life!
