Playboy Show Makes Men Choose: Women or Gadgets?
Which option would you take: Potentially scoring with a beautiful woman or definitely scoring a new iPhone? That's the choice male contestants will make on Playboy TV's new reality show, 'Gadget or the Girl.'
The format is similar to many of the other "I really just want to be on TV" dating shows. The contestant meets three presumably attractive girls, eliminates one immediately, goes on a date with the other two, eliminates another, then takes the final one out for a few hours. At the end of the show, he's given two options: join the woman for a weekend getaway or opt for a mystery gadget prize, which can range from a 60-inch plasma to an arcade machine. If the dude chooses the woman, she gets a prize.
So, what would you do in this situation? Reinforce a geek stereotype or take a chance with a girl you'd probably never meet otherwise? You can see what others do when the show, hosted by 'Last Comic Standing' finalist Iliza Shlesinger, premieres on September 1st at 7:30 PM on Playboy TV. And no, we don't know how you can be a contestant. [Source: CNET]

Fake blonds are a penny a bushel, what do you think... the gadget.

Damn, that's tough. Taking a girl on a date with a small chance of one glorious night or guaranteed tech...

LOL we all know how this is going to go. Women in the same shoes would choose the gadget. I would.There is a sea of men.You can date anyday! But a few gadget doesn't come by everyday! This show will bomb out fast.

After lengthy deliberation (about 5 seconds) I came to the conclusion that Betty is better than a gadget! I hope this doesn't mean I'm becoming mature after so many years of adolescence.

If Betty's sense of humor (reality?) doesn't need a lot of batteries, I'll pass on the Plasma TV. Are there any other Woman better than widgets out there?
