"BEAUTY AND THE GEEK" RETURNS FOR A FOURTH SEASON WITH NEW
TWISTS ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18 THE CW's HIT SOCIAL EXPERIMENT BREAKS THE
MOLD BY INTRODUCING A GEEKY GIRL AND HUNKY GUY ON THE FOURTH SEASON
PREMIERE
(Burbank, CA) - From the producing team of Ashton Kutcher and Jason
Goldberg ("Punk'd"), The CW's hit reality show "Beauty and
the Geek" returns with an outrageously fun fourth season, where the
new contestants are thrown a curveball that is as shocking as it is
hilarious. The two-hour premiere kicks off the network's fall season on
Tuesday, September 18 (8:00-10:00 p.m. ET).
The contestants had expected business as usual - gorgeous but
academically impaired women paired with brilliant but socially challenged
men to test intellect and social skills for a chance to win the $250,000
grand prize. But in their first days, they learn they have to compete
against one pair that's the complete opposite - a hot guy and a geeky girl
- which immediately throws the rest of the house into turmoil.
Among the new challenges, the geeks will perform an autobiographical
rap in a nightclub and participate in the ultimate social test: the
competition for Prom King. The beauties will delve into today's hot topics
for the first-ever American Beauty Debate and go back to basics when they
find themselves serving as a substitute teacher for a third-grade class.
Each of the previous seasons resulted in an unlikely romantic connection
between a beauty and a geek. But what happens when one hot guy and one
geeky girl get in on the action?
