  • Goodbye, Luv Guv, and Hello, Millionaire Matchmaker


    So behind every squeak is a little bit of grease? These super-clean super-moralizers usually do turn out to have been railing against themselves all along. And if I feel like looking away, I guess it's lucky for me that I have finally given in and made the leap from sordid reality to ... sordid reality TV. Yes, I was always a little vain at never having seen a single minute of American Idol or any of the other shows, but I am a frail hypocrite, too, because now my daughter has me hooked on something called Millionaire Matchmaker, starring this fabulous woman named Patti Stanger, who teaches boys (some of whom are getting on in years) how to be respectful on dates; Big Patti would have made quick work of the Luv Guv!
