agree jerome - if they were smart they wouldn't be in the show. As you say, bimbo's are quite marketable (Paris Hilton comes to mind....lol).

if they weren't dumb they would not have been cast. it's part of the premise of the show.

bimbos are very marketable. which is part of why the show is sucessful.

i'd say the reason it is called 'beauty' and the geek is because bimbo is usually used in an offensive manner, no one would apply. wheras 'geek' is a label that geeks can wear and be proud of an accept.

Definitely stupid. Definitely bimbos; and definitely illustrative of marketing-viewer-bias that the adjective used to describe the female participants is complimentary ('Beauty') while the one used to describe the male participants ('Geek') is denigrating. BTW 'stupid' definition at dictionary.com - utterly fits.

I don't think anyone is "dumb". I think the girls have smarts in some areas just like the "geeks" have smarts in others.

the girls are not dumb!
they are just not as well educated in real world things like maths and science etc as the geeks are, that is the reason why they were cast!!
