NEW TWIST!

The CW reveals 'Beauty and the Geek' fifth-season cast and twist

By Christopher Rocchio, 02/20/2008

The CW apparently thinks Beauty and the Geek viewers have forgotten what high school was like.

The CW has revealed the identities of the nine brainy boys and nine lovely ladies competing on Beauty and the Geek's fifth season -- however unlike previous seasons, this season's "social experiment" will begin with the two cliques competing against other, not paired into the show's usual opposite-extreme couples.

Given the show's title remains Beauty and the Geek, the "beauties vs. geeks" twist presumably isn't permanent, however The CW isn't saying. "[Viewers will] have to watch and find out," a network spokesperson told Reality TV World. The network also had no immediate explanation for how a season-long re-creation of a division easily seen at schools across America would fit with the show's oft-mentioned "social experiment" maxim.

As a result of the twist, Beauty and the Geek's fifth season won't begin with the contestants being eliminated in pairs. Instead, the team that loses a "beauties vs. geeks" elimination competition will have to select five members to participate in a revamped elimination quiz and whichever participant fares the worst will be eliminated. Like the show's earlier seasons, the cast will be competing for a $250,000 grand prize.

Despite the adversarial twist, Beauty and the Geek's fifth season will still feature challenges designed to test each group's intellectual and social skills and will include the geeks appearing on Dr. Drew Pinsky's syndicated Loveline radio show and the beauties learning to clean clogged pipes. In addition, the beauties will also join the geeks for a cameo on CBS' The Young and the Restless soap opera.

Beauty and the Geek's first three installments paired each of its male "geek" contestants with a female "beauty" contestant, and the couples competed as teams throughout the season. Beauty and the Geek's Fall 2007 fourth-installment largely followed the same format but also included a hunky guy paired with a nerdy girl.

Beauty and the Geek's fifth season, which will once again be hosted by Mike Richards, will premiere on Tuesday, March 11 at 8PM ET/PT.

The girls do look better than the usual girls who think they're hotter than they are.

I'm rooting for the beauties just because it's obvious who the show's going to want you to root for, playing up the high school drama and all.
