The new season has been announced, and some people aren't gonna like it.... Biggest change? It's no longer Beauties paired up with Geeks...it's Beauties VERSUS Geeks...

rats, Wilson...I definitely don't like that. I was hoping they would do male beauties vs. female geeks. Oh, well, will be watching anyway!

I'm going to miss them not partnering up. some of the girls seemed upset that there was no partners, all the guys were.

I am not sure I want to watch a Beauty VS Geek cause the great thing was always them learning from each other and growing because of it. Just not interested in watching another grudgematch type thing

I'll keep watching. The girls did seem to be genuinely interested in helping the guys with social skills. I think that their choices for who went to the elimination were well thought out. As long as the competition doesn't become mean spirited it should work out. Although I did note that the host said that the two people who made the most change win, not one beauty and one geek.

I'm just starting.. jury's out so far.. I think they started the first season or two with a VERY sweet show, then the cast started much game playing that made it sort of mean. Hard to saw what this twist will bring

watching Megan on Brett's show makes me so mad she won this a couple yrs ago. It just makes me think this show is fake and they are all actors. I didnt think Megan should have won that year and watching her now proves it

This is no longer a "social experiment." They have changed the entire concept of the show. Now, its obvious at least some of the women were chosen for the drama they will bring. If they can go at each other's throats within the first day, I'm sure its only a matter of time before they start ganging up on at least one/some of the geeks. Unfortunately, that's probably just what the producers have in mind. Lets just hope the person who gets ganged up on is one of their actor-plants (if indeed they aren't all actors), and not one of the genuine geeks.

well usually this is one of my favorite reality shows to watch, but i'm not sure i like the new twist. the whole point is to see the interaction between partners and now that is gone.

Hmm so this isn't so popular? Of course the competition on Tuesday night is insane.. I know I actually neeeded all four DVR tuners for part of tonight.. AI, Biggest Loser, B/G, DWTS Jericho (One Tree Hill I can see when it repeats on Sunday) Big Brother and other shows outside the prime time as well. So we will see how this goes..

Hi Seamonkey, I recorded it. I'll let you know what I think once I watch it. What did you think?

BTW- I can tell you they will go back to being pairs at some point (the host was on a local radio station being interviewed, and he said that).

I watched last night. I thought it was an all around good and entertaining episode. I was glad to see the person that left leave. She basically showed and told the viewing audience what she was all about. I feel slightly sorry for some of the geeks. The girls were fawning all over them in the hopes that they'd be spared from the elimination room. The geeks bought it hook line and sinker. The competition this week was so skewed for the geeks to win, thank goodness. I laughed pretty well at the geeks government style in choosing which 5 went into the elimination room. In the previews they showed a glimpse of what will come and I'm glad about it. The "beauties showed how talentless they really are. I'd say that was the worst showing in any of the comps that B&G ever had in all seasons. It was similar to the Slaughter Omarosa took a few weeks ago on Celeb Apprentice. The guys did very well in their part of the competition. If you have B&G saved on DVR I'd recommend to watch it was a good episode.

I just finished watching and I really enjoyed this episode. Wow, that one geek had quite the bod in the talent show! I don't know their names yet. The person who left, the goodbye speech had me laughing,"I'm used to being around beauty, I've been around myself all my life." She also said,"I know I'm a b*t*h but normally it wouldn't be pointed out by 'geeks' because I wouldnt' be giving them the time of day." Oh she's not full of herself at all is she?!! LOL P.S. Looking forward to them getting paired up.I also think quite a few of the geeks are going to be pretty decent looking after thier makeovers.

I think it is alright, but lacks the sweetness of the Beauty/Geek teams. But the Geeks are happily picking off the argumentative/overly dramatic Beauties and I'm all for that! And I was happy with the one leaving, too.

Yikes!!!! I forgot about geek muscleman. Obviously he spends some time in the gym. Their routine was clever and he was a pleasant surprise. Funny, I looked at the head shots above and couldn't figure out who it was. Now I feel like a guy....knowing the womans body was hot but couldn't pick the face out of a small crowd. Shame on me ;).

They all have little monikers. The muscular geek (Jason) goes by "one buff geek". I am really happy that Amber is gone. She was so mean, and I felt so sorry for the guy she was hustling, Tommy, because while I don't think he was buying it, it was attention he'd never had before. I love how that one guy said he didn't want to waste his first kiss in a game of Spin the Bottle.

I had no idea there even was a musclebound geek until he was on stage.. guess I haven't been paying complete attention.

ROFLMAO, How many Ambers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? One - amber inserts the lightbulb and the whole world revolves around her. that has to be the funniest thing one of the geeks have ever said.

BTW, the teams are "merging"- the girls are now picking partners. Unfortunately, there's one too many guys, so the one not picked will be eliminated.

But of course, it was a "to be continued" episode, so we don't know which of the guys didn't make the cut. I suspect it'll be Joe, though.

Maybe Jillian will come back with whatever guy doesn't get picked, to me that would be fair.
