Round 2 heeeeere we go.
Last year I remember being pretty excited about The PUA on Vh1. Ultimately I was a little disappointed. Overall in my eyes, the whole show was a bit lame. It seemed to me like a scripted show that did not show anyone what learning and practicing "PUA" material was all about.
So of course I was very curious when the first episode of season 2 came the tube last sunday night. I wanted to see if there was actually going to be any substance to this seasons antics. To sum it up, I am thus far not sold. But, on the bright side, it seems like the entertainment value of the show has definitely been upped. The contestants are more pathetic and overall the production value seems to be pushed up a bit for this season. So for now, I am hooked in for at least one more episode.
As for the controversy over if this show is going to "expose" the community: Ill tell you the story of a few of my roommates last year who were ecstatic over the show. They thought they were going to finally learn how to talk to the ladies. They watched, they learned nothing substantial and eventually the show was forgotten. I'd bet a fair amount of money this scenario was very typical of last seasons impact. I think many people in the "community" don't realize that most people in this world don't have the dedication to commit to doing what it takes to actually make breakthroughs in their game. To be frank, I don't think a sensationalized reality show will be inspirational enough for many men to see what learning this material can do for their life.
