At Least They Hid The Scripts
Brian at la.com has posted a story of a "Blind Date" film shoot at the HMS Bounty. Due to technical difficulties, they had to stop shooting:

Without the camera running, the two contestants didn't know what to do. They paid no attention to each other--just sort of looked around the bar with blank smiles on.

Brian snapped a picture and annotated it to describe the scene.



I actually like Blind Date better than some of the other shows, such as the shows in which multiple people of one sex are competing for a person of the other sex, and everyone ends up trashing each other. But even Blind Date has this air of unreality to it....
