‘More to love’ for everyone

By Tara Underwood

Fox’s More to Love dating show will feature average-looking people and will be the first dating show competition for overweight people. Fox is teaming up with Mike Fleiss, producer of The Bachelor. The show has no set air date but is accepting contestants and will have a similar format as The Bachelor, with a group of women competing to win the heart of a man.

The Bachelor and The Biggest Loser were shows that inspired More to Love to be created. The ratings of both shows were extremely high and popular with American audiences. Producers of More to Love think the show will be a big hit with the combination of both shows in one.

This is the first show that will feature your average overweight American and reach many similar people. Now, overweight Americans will know they can find love and feel just as good as skinny, beautiful couples and be just as happy.

Dating competitions aired on television have always featured standard size two women. Now, heavier women, who some may find not as attractive, will be featured and have the same chance that women who appear on The Bachelor do.

It’s about time average-looking people are featured on the media. It is always the same type of people who get numerous shots at being rewarded on television. Most shows only air contestants because of their physical appearance.

More to Love will be the first dating competition show that allows any typical person to be accepted and not have their physical appearance valued over who they are inside.

Dating shows like this point towards a change—average, everyday-looking people are now being featured on television. Average Americans finally have the chance to feel just as good as the ones who are always on television.
