Back in 2003, "Joe Millionaire" star Evan Marriott ruled reality TV. Nine years later, Marriott is older, wiser, and pretty apologetic.
In the nature of "The Bachelor," Fox's "Joe Millionaire" focused on the life of Marriott as he wooed women with his "money" and took them on extravagant dates. The catch? Marriott was actually a working class construction worker.
The series -- and a scandalous slurp in the woods, in particular -- recently made HuffPost TV's list of Fox's Most Shocking Moments Ever in honor of the network's 25th anniversary.
"Joe Millionaire" didn't exactly humble Marriott, and he went on to say no one on the show was his "type." Marriott listed the qualities of his "dream girl" to People magazine: "Blonde, big boobs, a little waist and a big, thick bubble butt."
After reading an article written by The Gloss' Jennifer Wright on Tuesday about how Marriott was a "terrible »

Evan Marriott vanished off the face off the earth after starring on Fox's guilty pleasure reality series "Joe Millionaire" almost 10 years ago ... so what happened to him?!For those who didn't watch, Marriott became famous after the wildly popular show in 2003. On the "Bachelor"-like competition, the construction worker tricked women into believing he was a millionaire -- only to reveal he wasn't rich at all at the very end. If the "winner" decided to stick with him anyway, they would be surprised with a million dollar check.Though Zora Andrich stood by Evan, the two split the money and then split from each other shortly after the show wrapped.In a new interview from Fox's 25th Anniversary Special, a very different looking Marriott materialized for the first time in years.Holding a cane and sporting some serious facial hair, Marriott explained how he went back to work as a »

It was a very slow Sunday night, with only three series cracking the 2 rating among adults 18-49. Leading the pack was the return of ABC’s Once Upon A Time (2.9/8), which was up two tenths from its last original three weeks ago. But ABC didn’t keep the momentum with another tepid performance for a Hallmark Hall Of Fame movie, Firelight (1.6/4), which was up a tenth from the last Hallmark movie on the network, A Smile As Big As The Moon. CBS’ The Amazing Race (2.5/7, 9.1 million total viewers) was flat with its fast national from last week, down a tenth from the final. The Good Wife (1.8/5, 10.3 million) was steady and ranked as the second-most-watched program of the night behind 60 Minutes, while NYC 22 (1.4/4, 7.5 million) was down only a tenth from its soft premiere last week as it seems to settle into A Gifted Man‘s pattern of a stable but low-rated freshman run. »
