Temptation Island

Has anyone watched this garbage?

Lifetime · 12-02-2001, 09:55 AM

Me. I actually find it rather amusing..
These people have turned the manipulation of emotion into an art form..
its sorta.. admirable, in a twisted sort of way. It doesnt make any sense though. There are far better (and safer) ways to test one's relationship. These people seem to be in a hurry to end their's. I can imagine the seeds of doubt being sown into all these long-term relationships already.

My wife likes it because it's a real life soap opera. I watch with her to see the bikinis...lol.

Bahamut · 12-03-2001, 08:40 AM

with all those pretty women, i don't think its NOT gonna sell...

Grand-Ranger · 12-04-2001, 12:33 AM

I agree Memnoch. I dont watch it but have seen parts of it.

Dumb.

shadowhound · 12-04-2001, 11:44 PM

I watch and enjoy that show, it is better then what else is on at that time (plus all those chicks in bikinis, i could watch them for hours.)

Memnoch · 12-05-2001, 07:40 AM

Are you guys serious?!? [img]redface.gif[/img] This is the biggest pile of unmitigated rubbish to ever hit a TV screen...even worse than the Big Brother fiasco. Anyone who goes on it deserves to have their relationship destroyed and the only value in watching this bollocks is to laugh at these sad losers when their partner dumps them.

I guess it's not too bad if you watch it with the sound muted and the stereo up...

Hey, Mem, I think I know why, look at what Shadowhound said:

<blockquote>quote:</font><hr> .....chicks in bikinis.... <hr></blockquote>

Does ANYONE really need a better reason to watch a show?

Ronn_Bman · 12-05-2001, 01:24 PM

Memnoch, I find it hard to believe any "serious" couple would go on this show. You are right, those that do go on this show have relationships that are doomed. If you don't think more of one another than that, then you don't have much of a relationship to start.

I doubt these couples are as interested in testing their "love" as they are in the free trip [img]smile.gif[/img]

BTW, I HATED Big Brother.

I have a feeling there is a cash reward for the singles if they manage to get a member of a couple into a compromising position. What do you think?
