Beauty and the Geek Australia

A show that has just returned for another series this year is Beauty and the Geek Australia. As of this point, there has only been one episode but already it has created enough interest to keep the viewers watching. There has already been shocking revelations on the show, such as one of the geeks a millionaire! None of the beauties know and neither do the geeks or the viewers.

The Geeks!

For those who have never watched it, the show is about 10 stereotypical geeks and beauties. The beauties chosen are often very attractive, but not the brightest bunch around! The geeks are often rather socially awkward, especially around women, often have a rather... "interesting" choice of clothes, hairstyles, etc. The idea of the show is to put these two different worlds together as sort of a social experiment to see how they interact and get along. 

The Beauties!

The idea is for the geeks to become more confident and perhaps change their fashion style, whereas the beauties are to learn some new things they never would have before and to understand the mind of a geek.

The geeks haven't always been quite so lucky with the ladies, as one of the geeks Jason says in his profile:
"A not so comforting moment for Jason was when he professed his love to a friend at high school who revealed to him that she was in fact gay.

"She said, 'Well, I'm actually a lesbian. But if I wasn't, you'd be the first guy I'd choose to date.'
But then I saw her a little while after and she was dating a guy so she had decided she now liked guys.""

Ouch!
