MTV's "Your Face or Mine"......Worst Game Show Ever

Has anyone seen this show. I'm still not sure if it's a real show or just a joke. I turned on MTV today while it was on. Basically it's got two contestants and they have to decide who looks better, themselves or some random picture of a person. If they guess who the audience voted for they win money. Mix in some stupid pointless computer effects and you have "Your Face or Mine". That's it. How this concept ever got to air is beyond me.

I thought it was a game where the winner gets to sit on someone's face. I would watch that.

The losing contestant should be permanently disfigured, maybe with battery acid.

It'd be interesting as a website thing, sort of like a competitive "Am I hot" site. But as a show? How can they fill up a half hour with that?

They rate themselves/other people based on what they audience would say and they win money.

-----

They first rate who is hotter between celebrities. Then to win an Apple Ipod, they rate each others family member(s) (parent(s), grandparent(s), etc.).

After that commericial.

Then they go to the center of the stage and the host (such a friggin' geek) picks out a pic from people who posted theirs online. They each have to rate themselves against that pic.

After that they rate themselves against holograms of others.

Commerical

Then they sit down and mystery guests arrive that know the contestants. One of the contestants rates the guest with the other contestant and vice versa.

Finally to win all the money (you lose it all if you are wrong on the final question.) you have the contestants have to pick who is hotter of themselves. If they get it right, they win the money.

When I first saw this, I knew the last part was the "catch" to get the money. Not surprising.

Awful show.

What do you mean? If you mean like videos - no.

If you mean background music - there is some theme that they play over and over throughout that is awful.


I don't seem to remember them playing TRL type stuff.

I thought the final question was to DOUBLE your money.
