Show Summary

  • Ended
Once upon a time, there were attractive women who got by on their appearances, and intelligent men with limited social skills, who lived in a house together, learning from each others' weaknesses and strengths. By the end of their journey, these diverse men and women received lessons in confidence, equality, and dignity. No longer were they just the Beauty and the Geek.moreless

    I watched Beauty and the Geek faithfully every week. It was not only a great reality show, but it was a wholesome show as well. It showcased outer AND inner beauty from both the beauties and the geeks.
    One of my favorite aspects of the show was how the beauties and the geeks had to learn about things they were unfamiliar with. Beauties had to learn about things such as computers while geeks were taught about social graces and dating.
    Beauty and the Geek was an endearing show about people who broke out of their stereotypes and learned something now. I am so sad that it got canceled.moreless

    I really really really like this show! There is such a big difference between beauty's and geeks and i love how this show let us see that.

    I always start to watch from the begin of the season, but i it always a little confusing. There are just so many people and i don't always get the teams.

    Halfway trough the show it is getting better, there are less teams, hatred is starting to spread and the i found out how cute the geeks are. Then they are going to "remake" the geeks, and they always turn out to be really cute.

    Am i so sorry that the American serie ended, i can still watch the dutch version, but that is not nearly as much fun.moreless

    In overall, this show gives and has a meaningful lesson. It is great watching this show because the geeks act like dorks -I cannot expect less- it is almost astonishing. I am glad that some of the beauties discover that they do have clever minds. Those that do not have yet to discover them. The show was created to overcome stereotype beliefs that people in general have. It shows that there is more than just beauty whether it is good or bad. And each new season gets better. I love watching it whenever I can and I hope everyone does, too! ^_^

    Beauty and The Geek is funny reality show on the CW created by Ashton Kutcher. 8 Beautiful Women and 8 Geeky Guys are put into teams of 2, where they compete to win 250,000 dollars. Seasons 1-4 were funny and great to watch, but Season 5 turned me off of the show. In Season 1, Richard and Mindi put Beauty and the Geek on the map. Richard would drive Mindi and the rest of the house nuts. Richard's feuds with Chuck were funny and epic. Richard pretty much made the 1st season.

    Season 2 came with a boom as well. Lots of pretty girls and geeky guys. In season 2, they tried to find another Richard in Josh. Although Josh was much more normal and didn't cause trouble. He was funny though and carried a "Murse" (Man Purse) around with him at all times. During the make overs, the ladies found Wes very attractive. Wes even hooked up with Josh's partner Cher. Josh and Cher would go on to win the 250K.

    Season 3 might have been the best season of all. With the most love-able geek, Nate. Everyone loved Nate from the beginning, even a beauty, Jenny-Lee. Jennylee feel for Nate even before the make overs. Nate's partner Cici on the other hand was the most hated person in the house. Cici thought she was better than everyone and didn't treat anyone with respect. Nate and Cici made it to the finals were they went up against Megan and Scooter. In a twist of events the cast of the show voted for which couple they thought had changed the most. In a selfless act, Nate asked the others to vote for Megan and Scooter, because he feels that cici has learned nothing. Megan and Scooter went on to win, but Nate was the real man in season 3.

    Season 4 saw the first male beauty/female geek team, Sam and Nicole. In a fun filled season Sam and Nicole made it all the way to the finals on Sam's ability to beat the female beauties. The fans got to vote for the winners in this season and elected to go with the typical female beauty and male geek, declaring the winners David and Jasmine.

    The show was great until season 5, when they tried to hard changing the style of the show. I give the show an 8 out of 10 and hope Season 6 can rebound and make it an 8 out of 10 again!moreless

  • Geeks and beauties are gathered at a mansion to pair up and work as a team. They have to compete in challenges to realize that they judge people by their covers and that this should stop.moreless

    All in all, this show has a great meaning behind it. I love watching it because some of the geeks are so dorky that I almost cannot believe it, but then again; some of the beauties are so stupid that they make me laugh. This show was created to overcome judgements like these and make people realize that there's something more to people than their looks, either good or bad. The show has been getting better each season, but the best seasons were probably 3 & 4. I loved Nate and Jenny-Lee, a geek and a beauty who fell in love during the show and proved to everybody that people can change.moreless
