at this point, i'd be afraid to let any of the people who are currently writing or producing the recent tv offerings have a chance at a show like star trek. if one or two of the great original trek writers want to give a new show a shot though, that'd be great. we need something good for a change. |

here's a female perspective on the show: complete bullshit. these guys don't come off as guys who want to be able to sleep with a different chick every night. if that were the case i can see how mystery does a well enough job. put guys in environment where females are drinking and trick them into bed. woohoo for you. but these guys are insecure and most even stated that all they really want is the confidence to approach a girl. this simply isn't the method to find a decent chick to get to know. i don't figure girls would expect guys to be picking them up in a bar for anything other then a brief encounter. and a 45 year old virgin in a bar trying to pick up 19-21 year olds? that's a disaster waiting to happen. beauty & the geek is a much better approach on giving guys the confidence to approach someone of the opposite sex. if you want a pick-up artist show that goes over well and makes sense, you find guys who aren't complete geeks about going up to girls. this show would have went over better had mystery taught them confidence first. because without it they're simply not going to put his techniques into practice correctly. oh.. and being an intelligent female (or so i'd like to think) .. don't play games with me. be yourself. it's the best pick up technique you could ever use. |

just about everything you just said was completely worthless. if you actually watched the show you'd know why to. not to burst your pathetic little bubble but they do pick ups in all kind of atmospheres. everything from a nightclub to starbucks is covered in this show. and i dont know when the last time you actually went out but i hardly ever see the same people twice when i go out. i've hooked up with chicks left and right at bars and never see them again. and also you are completely missing the entire point of this show. its not to teach guys how to find "miss right" (you women and your commitment bullshit) its about getting that one night stand/hook up. seriously, who goes to a bar looking for their future wife anyways? |

yeah.. i edited my response a little based on the fact that this show is about being able to sleep with a new chick every night. |

haha whatever you guys this topic is obviously going to create strong debate point is. mystery and his people teach the confidence and give the abilities to approach women when people would never have otherwise been able to do so because of their deep fear of rejection and the fact they would take that rejection very personally |

this show probably isnt scripted. it relies on the simple premise that anyone who has a tv camera following them can make out with some drunk chick in a bar. the funny thing is its hard to tell the losers apart from the supposed "pick up artists" that make up "mystery's" "crew". the other thing is they seem more about bragging to each other in a wierd homoerotic way than actually sleeping with girls. |

well actualy "the game" is based on pick up, and probably very similar to what is recommended on this show. this is because both the person that wrote that book and the contestants on this show are being tought the methiod by mystery, which has tought tons of people over the years. this isnt just some survivor or other fake reality show, these work shops are done year round and this is one they happen to be filming. now in most they dont do the whole "hidden cammera" thing and instead just have mystery in the night club watching. while yes some of this stuff is probably scripted, and im sure the picked the "needyest" looking kids and told them to look even needier to start (makes the whole thing look better if they start off looking bad). and clearly the pick up communitty is nothing like an elimination tournament (at one point you even see mysteries voice crack during one of the elimination rounds). but i think it acuratly protrays some of the pitfalls that someone new to dating will run into (like seeming too desperate), and one way to go around them. overall an intresting show, a hell of a lot better then most of the junk out there. |

they all arrive on a bus together, but it doesn't occur to them to introduce themselves till after they get off? in the first club scene, there are some faces blurred as if they didn't give permission to appear. after that i didn't notice any. in one of the booting scenes the part they repeat (before/after break) is slightly different which at least suggests multiple takes. one of them wins a prize of a "secret" opener. a few seconds later we see others practicing the same opener. that said most of the techniques work. such as being confident, not boring, stuff that reduces your value like standing around by yourself or aimlessly walking around, knowing when to leave/change tact, set, etc. still as per above (plus the fact that the get to edit it down to give the impression that they are after) the fact remains that it isn't 100% real. |

thanks for picking up the show  i don't care if it is scripted or not. in my opinion the show is really entertaining and that's all that count for me. if i want to learn the mystery method i'd buy the venusian arts handbook or something similar. |
