The End of the Dating Show
Friday, August 11, 2006
Just a few years ago, dating shows were all the rage. BLIND DATE opened the flood gates for a whole bunch of dating shows back in 1999. There was elimiDATE, SHIPMATES, FIFTH WHEEL, CHANGE OF HEART and EX-TREME DATING. But now the dating show is no more. Declining ratings have forced elimiDATE to end production. The show will air in repeats through September. BLIND DATE has been cleared in 90 percent of the country for the 2006-07 season, but it will only broadcast repeats for the first seven seasons. Look for host Roger Lodge to pop up on the magazine EXTRA.Labels: daytime tv
