Competing for the title of "Master Pick-Up Artist" and $50 grand, Mystery and his wingmen, Matador and J Dog help guide eight lovable losers through their biggest fear--talking to women.

Who will rise to the occasion? Who will crack under the pressure? And who will become...The Pick-Up Artist?

~Ep.2 just aired, and so far I think the guy who has low self esteem has a good chance at winning.

OMG. These guys are without hope.

This show is really entertaining. What is Mystery's real name?

I saw this show

I hope these guys actually get some help by Mystery teaching them

Mystery seems a bit queer to me. I could see him hitting it off with a lot of girls but I don't think he knows what to do with them after he gets them.

Dude, i struggle to watch shows like that, it hurts to watch them

btw watch this

^ His real name is Erik Von Markovik Even though he's now a PUA, I can still see his inner nerd just in the subtle ways.

Well looks like the guys are coming out of their shells a little bit. I like it when they reveal the secrets at times....ssecrets!!? *head snaps* Next week is the kissing and makeout field test. Bet that old man wished he could have held out longer.

ep2 (previous week)

It's not shown in these youtube videos but in the elimination round, you can see Mystery's neck and he totally ripped off Tommy Lee's lip tattoo. Plus he's wearing a hat that I remember Pamela Anderson once wore. At other times I'm convinced he is trying to look like a vampire or something.

Here's a primetime special video about PUA a year ago

Mystery seems a bit queer to me.

Mystery is androgynous.

He's 2 steps away from androgyny (at least) come on!

These are more vids of Mystery Method techniques

Last Minute Resistance

Fear of the approach

Did he just draw himself a hickey!?

And now get ready, this is gonna be disappointing.. a couple contestants are really aspiring actors

http://www.sceneinteractive.com/talents/ALVARO/#headshot

and this guy (from my name is earl)

Just because they're actors, doesn't mean they have game.

I was not doubting the actors put on reality tv aren't w/o dating issues. It's only the unfair advantage they have in memorizing set opener material that concerns me

If anything, that's a disadvantage. You can make a "set opener" out of anything if you're interested enough... so long as you be yourself. lol. There's no point in trying if you're not gonna at least do that. A lot of these openers take away from that since it's someone else's material. You can make it your own, but it's a lot easier to make your own up.
