Review: What Men Want (ntv7)

“Something new, something different.” That was my first impression of the new show on ntv7. Well, of course, the title seems to be quite captivating to some, and it’s a common question among girls (that includes internal gossip girls). Common answers to that, Men, typically being seen as ‘Horny’, ‘Ham Sap’ (cheeky), and yes, you got it right. It’s SEX. Men want SEX.

Hahaha, many of you got it wrong ey? Not all, actually. Men come in ‘many shapes and sizes’, and again, not ALL are very much into SEX when it comes to relationships and also, characters and attitude. When I was invited to write a review of this new show, I was straight up to it.

Money, Sex, Love, Career. Top four stereotypical answers to that. Six guys staying together under one roof, for three months. That’s pretty long isn’t it? Gerrit, Fendi, Ken, Kit, Narmi and Wolfie. Wait, Narmi? Yes, it is Narmi from One Buck Short. Pretty interesting, eh? I was very excited to pen in my thoughts and opinions about this program. Nonetheless, this show is a must watch, and this is SERIOUSLY real, as in reality documentary to the lives of these 6 gentlemen.

I had a chance to watch the first episode and hell, I was shocked. Surprised for sure, with all the conflicts, quarrel, scandals, and more. They may seem shy, soft spoken, and wait till you watch the show yourself. I believe this is something very new in Malaysia, and of course, with better publicity, although there are many, many reality shows out there, ‘What Men Want’, hosted by the elegant Deanna Yussof, I can assure you a nerve-wrecking, heart-wrenching, sweat-drenching dramas and stories of these men.

I find it, rather personal. It’s like invading, but not exactly invading into their private life. I thought it was a drama, and it is all acting and stuff. The ‘reality’ itself, I find it even more intriguing, rather more interesting the the ‘fake’ twists and turns of some fictional dramas.

Trust me, after watching the first episode, makes me wanna catch it some more. Feels like, erm, there are some friends who are like them as well. So, guys and girls, fans of Gossip Girls, catch What Men Want, every Saturday, 10.00 pm, only on ntv7, Your Feel Good Channel!
