I just finished watching the new Pick-Up Artist reality show featuring world famous pick-up artists Mystery, Matador and J-Dog. I have to say, it is pretty good so far.
When I first heard of the show airing, I was a bit skeptical on how it would portray the seduction community. One thing I feared was that it would put the community in a more negative light, emphasizing canned openers and routines simply to pickup women. However it seems that a main part of the show will be about building a better life for the contestants rather than be just about picking up women. Mystery said it best:
“This is a lot more than learning how to pick up women; it is about building a life.”
It is nice to know that these guys understand that what counts is making a better life for themselves because ultimately, isn’t that the most attractive quality in a person?
One thing that I don’t like about the show is that people get kicked off. What I was hoping for is that no one gets kicked off and that everyone improves to the maximum of their potential. Because really the seduction community is all about supporting each other to become better men, not to ostracize those who are weak. The ones who struggle are the one’s who need the most help. It is a bit difficult to help someone when you are kicking them out of the support group.
Other than that little tid bit, I do think the show will ultimately be really good. Definitely check it out if you’re interested in seeing some of the top pick-up artist in action. Finally I’ll end with this great quote from Matador,
“There is no perfect moment, you just go in there and make it happen.”

Yeah, I was bothered by the reality-game show aspect of kicking a person off each week. But I guess it gives the guys an incentive to push past their comfort zone, knowing that they can be cut if they give into their fears or self-limiting beliefs rather than ploughing throw them.
It looked like all those guys waxed their brows. Is that the new in thing?
Bertone,
Good point, that there is an incentive to improve so they don’t get kicked off. I just hope that Mystery or the other PUAs continue to help/mentor them after the show is over.
As far as the waxed brows, it has always been suggested in the PUA community to get rid of the Uni-Brow if you have one but other than that I don’t know.
Nice new header….really like it.
Plus I’ve never seen the show you are talking about…but it seems right up your alley…
If there is a second season or showing you should “try out”….LOL
Thanks Lisa!
There are actually 5 new headers that rotate randomly. I couldn’t decide on which one I liked best, so I just put them all up:)
I probably would have made a perfect contestant for the show about a year ago but I’m hoping that I’ve made enough progress that I wouldn’t be put in the same category as the current contestants.
I must admit being a nurse and playing on chat channels has definitely improved my game. Except when I met a long time crush a few week ago. He has a high profile job “rock guitartist” and all I could think of was “dont be a creepy groupie”. honestly it was embarassing behaving like a school girl in heat. *shrugs* live and learn huh?
i agree that kicking people off solves nothing. but it is a reality tv show, so by definition, it has to be competitive. in this case, though, i find that to be really lame. i wish mystery had stood up to the producers to explain how the PUA community is not like that. oh well.
unibrows are bad. but a guy with “sculpted” brows is even worse. tread delicately in this department.
