Stupid...

I thought that it would be very interesting to see this, but it turned out to be incredibly stupid and unrealistic. The guys are hopeless, and the girls...what can I say about the girls? They are incredibly hot, but watching them fail at fifth grade geography was just too much. I couldn't take it. I hear that there is going to be a second season. I hope it's canceled. Ashton Kutcher is definitely not a genius, and he can't act to save his life. The fact that he's married to a member of Hollywood's A-list, (Demi Moore) will probably help boost his career, but I don't know what the hell he was doing when he came up with this idea.

To sum things up, the show is absolutely ridiculous and awful. It is an abomination to TV watchers, and by watching this, I feel sure that American TV is slipping down the drain.
