Found June 20, 2007 on Tennis X:
Last night, NBC premiered their new dating show, "Age of Love", starring two-time Grand Slam finalist Mark Philippoussis. The most comical part of it all? The ads for the show, which aired during the final round of the US Open (the golf one, of course), didn't even mention that Philippoussis was the "stud" that would be choosing between dating a pack of 20-year-olds or 40-year-olds. If he isn't even a draw, what was the point of putting him on the show in the first place? I'm sure the folks at NBC could have found someone better looking and perhaps more accomplished if they weren't even going to use his name to attract an audience.

  • They totally mentioned it, actually. I've seen the commercial for weeks now! I was counting down the days, hahahah! (lame, i know.) And they kept showing his expression of his eyes poppin' outta his head when he hears that the first ones are in their 40's. They only thing not mentioned was that the women weren't told who HE would be...but all commercials were about the prank on him. It was high comedy. Def gotta watch it. And he's HOT.
