Last night, hubby and I FINALLY had a moment to sit down and catch up on some television. One of the commercials that caught our eye was for a new show called ‘More to Love’.
Basically, it’s ‘The Bachelor‘ but for "average" sized people. The commercial claims that the average size for men and women of America is between 14-16. HOWEVER, the average size for people on television is about a 2.
The premise is to give plus sized people the change at love.
Fox is teaming with "The Bachelor" producer Mike Fleiss for a new
dating-competition series that casts "average-looking" people.
The
series, titled “More to Love,” is billed as the first “dating show for
the rest of us,” throwing open its doors to overweight contestants.
“For
six years it’s been skinny-minis and good-looking bachelors, and that’s
not what the dating world looks like,” Fox president of alternative
Mike Darnell said. “Why don’t real women — the women who watch these
shows, for the most part — have a chance to find love too?”
So who is the star? A 300 pound man named Luke who says he was never really attracted to "stick thin" women. Luke is looking forward to this chance at finding love.
"I’m interested in a woman who’s curvy and who’s got some meat on her bones," Luke tells ET. "I’ve never been attracted to stick thin."
Luke, a former offensive lineman in college, stands 6-feet
3-inches and weighs in at 300 pounds. He says, "I enjoy being a big
man."
What do you think about this concept? Something you’d be interesting in watching? Do you think there should be one show that combines people of all shapes and sizes? Or does it make sense to split out the demographic?
