From Here To Eternity
I just watched the worst Blind Date ever. I don’t know if you’ve seen this show, but the title clearly states the premise. People get set up on blind dates and the whole thing is filmed.
I don’t know who in the casting department fell down on this one, but this Chinese girl cussed out the Russian guy so hard that they bleeped for two minutes straight ended up throwing shoes and punches. It was awesome. No really, the whole thing, a train wreck from the word go, they were swearing at each other in foreign languages and she roller-bladed away from him at the skate park and then they went to the gym (which, as an aside, I’ve been on many a date, never to the gym before, but these kids today doing all kinds of crazy things, like going on a date to the gym) and she proceeded to pummel him with hands, shoes, and balance balls. The episode ended with out-takes from this date, the stuff that landed on the cutting room floor, like the guy smelling her shoe and trying to strangle her with a jump rope.
The greatness of this episode might never be surpassed.
And for what it’s worth, even on my worst dates, my date never tried to kill me.
