Dear Narayan

My name is Bianca Fera and I am a Producer at the television production company, Endemol Southern Star and was hoping you might be able to help me.
I am contacting you because we are currently casting for a new season of the hit TV show ‘Beauty and the Geek Australia’, and I would be grateful if you could please pass this email/flyer on to some of your members or colleagues. Please do not take offence to the title of the show as we don't mean it in a derogatory way - if you have seen any of the show last year you will know that we are looking for highly intelligent guys who are passionate and proud of their intellect.
We are looking for smart, single males between the ages of 18-30, who are experts in their own specialised field – this can range from mathematicians, scientists, physicists, geologists, historians, musicians, chemists, poets and literary lovers to guys who excel in puzzles, games or computers.
The premise of the show is to carry out a social experiment for which there is a $100,000 cash prize for the winners. We will couple together beautiful, socially savvy women with highly intelligent males, and through a series of challenges, see what they learn from each other. The idea is to embrace and celebrate the talent and individuality of each contestant.
We had a national casting tour and had a good turn out but based on last year's experience, we know that the most intelligent and interesting guys are not necessarily the one's that would come forward to a national casting call. One of our most memorable guys last year was Xenogene, a PHD Physicist and he was found through a university club. I appreciate that the show is not everyone's cup of tea but there is no harm in putting the word out there and seeing who expresses interest. Last year’s contestants described the experience as life changing and a lot of fun.
If anyone is interested please ask them to either email me xxxxxxx or call me on xxxxxxxx.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Kind Regards,
Bianca Fera
Producer/Direct

Damn it!
Smart(ish) and single, but it ends there....
LOL, I actualy would consider it for a laugh.
The show is pretty harmless and there's stacks of pretty girls

They would never select me tho, I don't look anything like a geek.

You must be joking, it is about time they put some decent programs on TV other than the rubbish of people behaving like idiots.

Smart...hmm, would smart-ar** be close enough & I could always pretend to be a 30 yr old with an aging disorder.

I haven't heard of that show before.

Sounds like it would be a bit of a laugh.

Having watched half of one episode, I didn't pick up on this at all

Why are these shows called reality TV? the people are put into an unrealistic environment.

[Ric]

There are no ratings in a normal environment Dave.
