dmanyc Anyone that believes that they can find true love on a reality show needs to be sent to Bellevue. Ready For Love is a hodge-podge of previous reality shows with an identity crisis. NBC takes THE BACHELOR/BACHELORETTE, THE DATING GAME, THE MILLIONAIRE MATCHMAKER, and THE HUNGER GAMES, throws them in a blender, hit the mix button, and tastes just plain awful.The women that choose to participate in this joke of a show are treated worse than cattle: one minute they're told how to act, think, feel, open up about themselves, how to fall in love (?) to the men they're trying to win over (one is even criticized for choosing to save herself for marriage) and the next minute they're criticized harshly for the very things they were told to do. But the men? They get a free pass on their behavior.Then you have the matchmakers that make Patti Stanger look classy in comparison. One in particular, Tracy, I wanted to punch in the face for saying that if your a single woman then you're a bitch (her words). Tracy, I hope whatever clients you have left bailed on you for that comment. Congratulations for alienating the entire female population. Another matchmaker is studying "the male brain". First of all, which male brain is being studied? Also, what more is there about the male brain to study? Judging from this show, not a whole lot.As for these three guys that are "looking for love", it seems more like one is looking for a comeback. One is a musician for Plain White T's, infamously known for the ubiquitous "Hey There Delilah". I guess just putting out another crappy song wasn't enough. Now he had to subject the women fawning over him and us the viewers to listening to his band's new music. If you look up ONE-HIT WONDER in the dictionary, you'll see Plain White T's.And can we please once and for all stop calling being on a reality show "a journey"? Climbing Mount Everest is a journey. Suffering from an illness or a horrible accident and the long road to recovery is a journey. Being on any reality show is NOT a journey; it's really one long boring audition to an acting career that never was.Ladies (and gentlemen), if your that desperate for love, save your dignity and resist the temptation to embarrass yourself on national television.

electric889 This show is my favorite reason why people should give more credit to matchmaking and dating advice. Not only is Ready for Love entertaining, but it also seems like these matchmakers actually care about the girls on the show and the guys who they could possibly be set up with. So many times have I watched dating shows that claim to be in the interest of their contestants and never have they actually stood by their promises. Amber, Matt, and Tracy are the three people I personally would trust my love life to and to see them in action is fantastic. These three matchmakers know what they're doing and this show is the perfect example of how even if you have it all, you still need someone to share it with.

Brcpatricia1 I found this program to be difficult o watch. There were too many elements in this program to enable me to follow the show and enjoy it. There was a bachelor, 12 women, cohosts, matchmakers (who also served as critics), AND a live audience. These are too many elements to make a show interesting and engaging. I am a fan of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette and I appreciate the singular input of the persons looking for love without the pressures of coaches and psychologists in the form of Matchmakers. Choosing potential partners in front of a live audience seemed brutal, if not completely unkind. Having to write 10 lines in a review is also brutal and seems unnecessary. I hope Ready For Love can make adjustments and become an entertaining show at some point.
