It’s hard to express with words just how vile and repellent VH1′s “Tough Love” (debuting March 15th) looks. If the 30-second teaser above doesn’t convince you that dating-centric reality shows will destroy civilization as we know it, by all means, give the five-minute preview below your attention. Matchmaker/king douche Steven Ward is gonna train these bitches, see:
Steven will examine the bad habits of eight women and retrain them on the basics of dating and maintaining a relationship. During this “tough love boot camp,” Steven will attempt to reshape their “destructive” dating habits using his rules of dating. Steven will tackle such issues as first impressions, jealousy and communication while challenging the women with situations outside their comfort zones. Once they have completed the lesson, the women will be sent out on dates with men hand-picked by Steven from his pool of hot, eligible bachelors…
Although they may not like his rules, they’ve got to listen to this matchmaker’s Tough Love if they want to find true love.
200,000 years. That’s how long Homo sapiens has been on Earth. And for all but the last decade or so, our species has still found ways to procreate without the aid of reality TV. So I’m gonna go ahead and say no, those women may actually NOT have to listen to his tough love if they want to find true love.

What exactly would challenge outside of these skanks’ comfort zone? DVDA?
Pretentious? Douche-tastic? Mind numbingly derivative? A female version of ‘The Pickup Arist’? Slut re-engineering? 31 seconds was clearly not enough to represent the levels of bitchiness this show will come to.
Uhm…is that Adrian Pasdar?
Love the preview. Hate humanity anyway.
