'Flavor' Ladies Head to 'Charm School' - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Because two seasons of "Flavor of Love" and a "Flavorette" spinoff aren't enough, VH1 is extending the franchise a little bit more.

The network has ordered up a series called "Charm School," in which comedian Mo'Nique takes 13 former "Flavor of Love" contestants and tries to teach them a little bit about manners and poise and such. The prize is cash and the title of "Charm School Queen."

"These girls are outspoken and outrageous, but they need some focus and direction. I'm just the woman to give it to them," Mo'Nique declares. "You will see a metamorphosis in these girls, I promise."

The show will consist of a series of challenges in which the contestants will be judged on how they apply their etiquette training in "difficult situations." Presumably among the lessons will be, you know, not squatting in the middle of the room to relieve oneself, as contestant "Somethin" did in the season two premiere.

That VH1 would want to bleed "Flavor of Love" for every last drop of its appeal is no surprise. The show has drawn record-breaking ratings, and the second-season finale was by far the most-watched show in VH1 history.

"Charm School" comes from the "Flavor"/"Surreal Life" team of Chris Abrego, Mark Cronin and Ben Samek. A premiere date hasn't been set.

Mo'Nique is probably best known for her role on UPN's "The Parkers." Her movie credits include "Domino" and "Phat Girlz," and she also hosted an executive produced the plus-size beauty pageant "Mo'Nique's Fat Chance," which aired on Oxygen last year.

How the hell can you compare the two? Monique DOESN'T HATE OTHER WOMEN. NY hates ALL WOMEN. It must be because other women don't LOOK LIKE A MAN BABY!

I think she has a pretty face; if she were smaller she might be pretty...

I'm probably on the other side of the fence for this one but...I don't get it. I watched one episode of Flavor of Love and didn't understand the hype whatsoever. Flava Flav is fugly, so I don't see what those women see in him? If anyone here does, please enlighten me.
