Finally, ABC gave the green light for The Love Boat to go to series and a lot of the credit for that has to go to Aaron.
#TAKING A SHOT OF LOVE CAST TV#
It was wonderful and people loved it.”Īlso in 1977 came the final TV movie, The New Love Boat, which brought aboard Gavin McLeod as Captain Stubing, Laren Tewes as Julie McCoy and executive producer Aaron Spelling, who was riding high at the time with Starsky and Hutch and Charlie’s Angels, among others. On a Saturday night you could escape the snow of New Jersey, where I was, and end up either in Mexico or the Mediterranean or Australia. “In a lot of ways, the show really kind of opened our eyes, but what it really did was to cheer us up from the winter doldrums. “ The Love Boat brought those locations to American living rooms and a lot of people who couldn’t afford to go to or had never been to these places,” observes Jim Colucci, author of Golden Girls Forever: An Unauthorized Look Behind the Lanai and who is currently writing the ultimate companion to The Love Boat. And that’s especially true when it comes to The Love Boat, which took viewers on romantic cruises to domestic and foreign destinations between 19. Vinny storms off the set of his own reality TV show on Double Shot at Love.CBS may have owned Saturday nights in the first half of the 1970s with series like All in the Family, The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Carol Burnett Show, but ABC took the crown in the latter half of the decade with the one-two punch of The Love Boat and Fantasy Island. But the teaser for the rest of the season offers hope in the form of lots of guest stars, so I'll reserve my judgment for now, comrades. This time around, it's only Vinny looking for love, but when he doesn't seem that into it himself, it's a hard sell for the rest of us. It also lacks the familiarity of the second season, which featured some of the cast members from the first, added the Cujins, and basically tried to bring back the debauchery and drama of the original Jersey Shore with a younger cast who happened to be staying in a hotel suite with Vinny and Pauly. Double Shot at Love Season 3's premise is slightly watered down from the first season, where Vinny and Pauly were competing to find love with the same cast of women. The cliffhanger pretended that there might not even be a show if Vinny can't get it together, but of course next week it will be revealed to be nothing and the season will continue on. Kortni charms her way into a solo coffee date with Vinny on Double Shot at Love. Vinny froze up at that point, then walked off with a producer, leaving the cast to act as they'd just witnessed a second 9/11. Vinny needed to leave the set twice during the show: once when his nose bled randomly while talking to Peachy, and later, at the end, when he had to choose the first of the seventeen contestants to eliminate.
Vinny, of course, is the "prize," though he spent most of the episode riddled with anxiety. Pauly serves as the de facto host of the show, while Nikki's job is to guide the contestants in their quest to find love with a reality TV star at least ten years older than any of them. Just as Jersey Shore fans met the cast, so did Vinny, Pauly, and Nikki. Vinny talks to Peachy and two of the other seventeen contestants whose names I have not bothered to learn yet, comrades, moments before his nose starts bleeding on Double Shot at Love. There are too many to go through here in one article, so I will the standouts who I would gladly invite to live in my palace as first ladies: podcast host Cortni Montgomery, whose jokes and bubbly personality charmed Vinny, Pauly, and Nikki into unanimously offering her the very first coffee date with Vinny, Emily "Peachy" Piccinonno, a Staten Island girl who made Vinny gush blood from his nose like a Dragon Ball character simply by talking to him, and Akielia Rucker, for whom this isn't her first MTV reality show rodeo, and who may be the target of not only Vinny's affections but the rest of the girls on the cast, who couldn't stop talking about her beauty and her prominent posterior. It started off like any dating show does, by introducing all of the contestants. Greetings comrades, it is I, your El Presidente, and Double Shot at Love Season 3 Episode 1, titled "Somebody's Future Wife is Here," was a weird one.
