	John Derbyshire on Joe Millionaire on National Review Online
		Joe had to entertain these girls, get to know them, and week by week eliminate a certain number of them, till he is left with Miss Right.
		Number three, he has a decent conscience, and when out of sight of the girls spends most of his time agonizing about the $50 million deception that is fundamental to the whole show, but which he is going to have to confess to the final lady after he has selected her.
		Joe Millionaire is, in fact, the case for arranged marriage.

	Average Joe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Average Joe (2003), Average Joe: Hawaii (2004), Average Joe: Adam Returns (2004), and Average Joe: The Joes Strike Back (2005) are reality TV dating shows that aired on the NBC network.
		The premise of the first two Average Joe series was intended to be somewhat of a mockery of traditional set-up shows such as The Bachelor and Joe Millionaire in which the "reality" premise is questionable.
		In this season, one rejected Joe from each week received a complete makeover and the opportunity at another chance with the show's beauty Anna Chudoba.

	Joe Millionaire (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Joe Millionaire was a cheesy premise from the get-go.
		It's not like JOE MILLIONAIRE had been on the air for years (or months for that matter) where a clip-show was really necessary to "catch up on all the things you might have missed." Worthless programming.
		Joe Millionaire is a festering pool of white infected pus, and the people that devised such a show should be sent to the front lines in the upcoming Iraqi war, since this kind of reality TV is an intentional diversion from the real scary world beyond the boob tube.

	Fame-grubbers, not gold-diggers - REALITY TV - MSNBC.com
		What “Joe” accidentally revealed, to the unending delight of many, is that witless buffoonery in front of a few million people actually punishes itself.
		The truth is that they can’t abandon the millionaire setup, because when there’s no scam, there’s no “greed or love” conflict to put a supposed kernel of wisdom in the center of the show.
		Even the first “Joe,” as tacky and trashy as it was, collapsed into a mawkish mush in its last episode, in which shy and sexually reticent Zora beat out trashy Sarah, partly because Evan suspected that Sarah was after the money he didn’t have.

	Salon.com Arts & Entertainment \| Scenes from the class struggle on Fox
		The conceit of Fox's "Joe Millionaire," as anybody reading this now knows, is that the women competing for the affections and assets of man-toy Evan Marriott are under the misapprehension that he is the heir to a $50 million fortune, and not, as is the case, a $19,000-a-year construction worker.
		Watching the "millionaire" test his future wife's "character" by making the girls shovel coal into a steam engine and pick grapes in the freezing rain, I started wishing for a show in which the same girls vied for the assets of an actual scion.
		But "Joe Millionaire" floats along in a kind of Robin Leach-inspired fantasy, because both the heir and the gold diggers are blissfully unaware of just how exposed their bare classes are.

		"Joe Millionaire" is a seven-part reality series in which 20 women vie to marry a dashing millionaire named Evan.
		In lieu of a wrap-up of a show that was only watchable for one minute, I'm offering several theories of what the twist might be, leading up to an argument for my personal theory, which, if it isn't correct, is probably more interesting than the actual twist.
		Paul Hogan is the real millionaire and Evan is just girl-bait, and that the decision the girls must make is between the now-lowly Evan and suddenly un-servant-like Paul.

		The network's previous best for entertainment programming was about 34 million viewers for an episode of "The Simpsons" in 1990 -- when there were only four broadcast networks and cable reached fewer than 75 percent of TV households.
		/>The first hour of Monday's "Joe Millionaire" -- which was mostly a recap of previous episodes and which FOX counted as a separate program -- averaged 29.3 million viewers, better than anything on the five other major networks that night.
		The good news for NBC and ABC is the audiences for the two shows were bigger than what each network has been averaging for the regular series in those time periods -- "Third Watch" and "Crossing Jordan" on NBC and "The Practice" and "Miracles" on ABC.
