Flavor of Love a huge hit for VH1

by Brett Love, posted Oct 2nd 2006 11:55AM

Flavor FlavVH1 doesn't seem to get as much of the 'they don't play music anymore' criticism as MTV, but I think they are following a very similar track. And that direction is what brought about Flavor of Love. I was surprised to learn that the premiere for season two of the Bachelor spoof drew 3 million viewers. Not only that, but the audience for the season one finale was nearly 6 million. That is the highest rated show in VH1's history.

The NY Times has an interesting article about Flavor Flav and the show. The opinions range from the show being another reality goof to a slap in the face to all people of color. I've always fallen in the spoof camp, putting Flavor of Love in the same category as The Joe Schmo Show. I think Joe Schmo was a better concept. I tuned into Flavor of Love a couple times out of curiosity, but it seemed like the same joke over and over.

Yo! Flavor of Love was hot! I knew that my man Flav would pick Delishus from the beginning. I personally liked Buckey! Did you see her on the Shoulder Lean video? So is that it? No Flavor of Love 3!!!

Well first of all I just love to watch Flav and his girls get down on this tv show they all just make me laugh. I am so glad he picked Delecious to be with him.Because New York thinks she was all that.I watch almost every show of his and they all make me laugh.It's the way they all get down with Flav.But I really do love Flav's shows.I can't wait until the new show comes on.I think NY is somewhat jealousy of some of them girls on the show.That's all i have to say.But I Fell In Love With Ur Show.

I really enjoyed the show, and hope that Delecious and Flav get married and that becomes a show. I give the show five stars.

Who in their rite mind,of all these girls,would want to be with one of the ugliest people on earth? I think they only want their T.V. time and any money he is makeing,unless they are blind.

Flavor of Love is good reality TV. Oh my God! I can't believe how much I love this show.

Flav, surpisingly, it the straight guy on the show. I respect him more after seeing the show. Gotta love '911 is a Joke', but I didn't really care for the person much until now.

I just hope New York and Delishus throw down in the finale. Man, I can't wait.
