Boston Seventh Strangest City in U.S.
Boston Blotter: Gang Shooting in Dorchester
If reality-television show Beauty and the Geek wants geeks, they need look no further than college-saturated Boston. The Crimson announced an open casting call for the show that will be held on Saturday, May 12, at Felt between 11:00 am and 5:00 pm.
Those who can't make the casting call can download an application here.
On the show, beauties and geeks team up to tame each other. If a beauty becomes more human and a geek becomes more social, then that team has a good chance at winning a cash prize.
While the show doesn't officially involve sex and/or romance, the Craigslist advertisement has a few double entendres:
We are currently seeking:
--Beautiful, sexy, social-savvy women who can turn a geek into a stud
--Intellectually endowed but socially inept men who can turn a shopper into a scholar
Aspiring cast members should be between 21 to 30, as booze sometimes gets involved on the show. It is reality TV, after all.

Nothing at all on Bostonist about the audience brawl last night at the Boston Pops??? WE WANT SARCASM AND DETAILS!
ahhh...thank you :)
When, oh when, will they flip the gender roles on this show and have hunky yet stupid beefcakes paired with bespectacled, short, pink- or green-haired, overeducated programmer chicks with penchants for SF novels and writing slash fic for the web? WHEN!?!??!
