What Parents Need to Know
About Can't Get a Date
Parents need to know that this show is much less harsh in its criticism of the subject than other makeover shows, and it focuses far less on commercial products. Overall perfection isn't the goal; quirkiness and individuality aren't just allowed, they're admired, and the core message is that there's someone out there for everyone. That said, the show is based on the premise that some people are so nerdy they need to be "fixed" -- and that magically fixing one or a few shortcomings can result in speedy romantic success.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what makes a person attractive. What about the person featured in each episode is charming or interesting? How do their values come across? What seems to be inhibiting them, and how could it be addressed? Do you think the makeovers are a success? What might they have done differently? Also, do you really think there is someone for everyone? Is it realistic to approach dating with that assumption?
