6606: Trust Me, These Guys Are Desperate.
You have to wonder if TNT has given up on Trust Me. The network opted to run another double-header. Do the scheduling wonks want to spike viewer interest or simply burn through the remaining episodes as quickly as possible?
Placing the show against American Idol is a bad move. Even Paula Abdul would have difficulty finding positive things to say about Conner and Mason at this point.
Here’s a highlight mashup. Tony bopped Simon. And once banged Denise. The agency pitched Rolling Rock. And was beaten by Momentum (which confirms that RGM sucks). Conner and Mason directed voiceover talent to speak in a stereotypical Italian voice. Sarah banged her boyfriend. Then discovered her ex-husband is gay. Mason exploded then sulked after receiving a poor review from his team. A corporate psychologist explored everyone’s feelings, allowing the cast to overact. And scream. And cry. And expose their honest opinions.
This is what’s known as jumping the shark.
