That's Amore News

A pair of absurd dating shows and a reality show mainstay graced television screens last night. Here's a look at what went down on each...

That's Amore: Domenico takes the two girls to Italy, but sadly, Ashley McNeely is left behind. Once they arrive at Domenico's village, the girls are a bit disillusioned to see that he lives in a tiny village out of a bad movie. -- Buddy TV

Rock of Love: The three girls returned to an empty house and were forced to do some cleaning because guests were arriving. Then the fateful moment when the doorbell rings occurred, it wasn't an ex of Bret's, though, the families came! -- Celebrity Cafe

Big Brother: After Adam won Head Of Household, he said he felt much more confident in his abilities with the power this time around. Natalie claimed yet again that she had a dream that Adam would win HOH, saying it's almost like God is talking to her. Well okay then.-- Reality TV Magazine

If ever there were an evening for trashy reality TV, it would be Sunday night. What better way to begin your week, right? Let's see what went down on the following three shows:

Big Brother: As usual, the Sunday night episode opened with several minutes of commentary on last week's events to help remind viewers of what had happened. In a few words, Chelsia was evicted and Natalie won Head Of Household â€" there's the first ten minutes... -- Reality TV Magazine

That's Amore: This is the penultimate episode of That's Amore, thank God. It's kind of amazing, and a commentary on MTV's lack of faith in this show, that 14 women can get eliminated in just six episodes... -- Buddy TV

Rock of Love: They arrive in Vegas without incident and are no sooner in their suite then Jessica and Destiny are delivered golf outfits for their date with Brett. Surprisingly, Jessica apparently played on her high school golf team, so she's excited about the outing... -- Zap2It

On a skank-filled evening of reality TV, here's a look at what went down on a trio of shows...

Rock of Love: We're treated to Kristy Joe Muller calling her second - and current - husband. Whom she may or may not have a restraining order against. She obliquely tells him that "a lot of stuff we went through has started surfacing." Because no one can comprehend Kristy Joe, he asks her what that is supposed to mean. -- Zap2It

Keeping Up with the Kardashians: We open up this week with the older sisters and mom gathered around, and Kim's got an announcement: she was the number one Google search last week! Hooray! -- TVgasm

That's Amore: While the other girls are at breakfast, Talor sneaks into Domenico Nesci's bed for some private cuddling. The girls get their pizza deliver and they are informed about yet another food-themed challenge, this one involving live chickens that Ashley McNeely is tending to. -- Buddy TV

We know many people cannot start their week off properly until they discover what went down on Sunday night reality TV shows. Don't worry, we've got you covered:

Big Brother: It's Day 28 in the house and while we might not be thrilled that we had to see Allison booted so many times between two shows, Joshuah apparently could watch it over and over again. He's jumping for joy that he saw Allison evicted twice, once with Ryan and then the solo eviction. -- TV Squad

That's Amore: Ashley wakes Domenico up, and we're stunned his pajamas have sleeves. The two men decide to make breakfast for the ladies. The show revisits the blondes vs. brunettes rivalry in the house. Domenico takes virginal Kathleen aside for a smooch. -- Buddy TV

On the series premiere of That's Amore, Domenico Nesci asked to smell a contestant's armpits. How come?

Because she's been accused by another contestant of smelling like "booty marinated in some fish sauce." So Nesci wants to find out for himself, naturally.

One longtime reality TV show continued to spiral into the gutter last night, while the latest dating competition premiered. Oh, and Scott Baio continued to milk publicity from his daughter being born. On to the recaps!

Big Brother 9: The episode begins by flashing back to Alex and Amanda's eviction. We don't understand why people get sad after evictions. We know you're in this hyper-emotional, summer camp kind of thing, but just sign some yearbooks and get the hell out. -- TVGasm

That's Amore: The intro is overly Italian, and immediately we're certain this is a parody of reality dating shows. The girls roll up in an Italian flag limo wearing bikinis. Sadly, I believe most of these girls are actually here for Domenico Nesci because they find him precious. -- Buddy TV

Scott Baio is 46... and Pregnant: The episode started off with Scott trying to get Bailey's onesie on. It was not the easiest thing he'd ever done and he was trying to do it with a severe lack of sleep, but it was better than the next step in Scott's day: filling out his wedding registry with Renee and the wedding planner. - Zap2It

With his reality dating show, That's Amore, set to premiere on Sunday night, Domenico Nesci is speaking out about his search for love.

He recently sat down with our pals at Buddy TV:

Having seen Tila Tequila and how she approached having all of these people try to win her over, did you learn anything from being around her that you're sort of mimicking in how you act as the star?
I guess I saw how the show was, but I got a totally different personality than Tila, so I approach the show in a different way. I like to approach things in a funny way, no matter what it is. Even if it's something serious, I try to laugh or something in a sarcastic way sometimes, or in a funny way.

Being on the Tila Tequila show and watching her I got an idea of how it works, but I want to put my talent and personality into what is going to happen.

Are a lot of the competitions girls can win on That's Amore! sort of different and more fun?
They're much more fun and much more Italian.

Can you give us an example of some of the dates or the competitions that you're going to be putting these girls through?
Yes, first competition is a huge pool of spaghetti meatballs. Probably 2,000 dishes of spaghetti meatballs, and the girls have to do some stuff with the meatballs in their mouth. Then I ended in the pool, and I cannot tell you how, but I've never been in a pool full of spaghetti meatballs.

The feeling is really nice though. It's no good when you find meatballs in your underwear. It was in my underwear and I couldn't realize, because it was a little cold, which ones were the meatballs and what was going on also the same…I was confused between the meatballs and my real balls.

On March 2, Domenico Nesci embarks on his own quest for true love when MTV's new dating reality series, That's Amore, debuts.

With the premiere less than a week away, several events promoting the show have already been set in motion. For example, one took place Saturday at Club Oragin in Long Island.

The party was hosted by Dominique himself, along with one of the women hoping to win Nesci's heart, and Vanessa, the feisty A Shot at Love alum who had a nasty cat fight with fellow contestant Brandi.

Another shindig in honor of That's Amore is scheduled to take place on Friday, March 14, two weeks after the show's premiere.  According to Nesci's Official MySpace, the party will be held at the Jet Mirage Nightclub in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Fans of Domenico Nesci - the rejected contestant on A Shot of Love with Tila Tequila - won't have to wait much longer to see his reality show.

Domenico, his sidekick Ashley McNeely, and the fifteen young American women vying to win the Italian's heart will be making their premiere on That's Amore on March 2.

According to a preview of the series on the MTV website, there's a kiddie pool filled with spaghetti in tomato sauce. There's also a visit from the paramedics to come. And, of course, men in very tight swimming trunks.

Domenico is surrounded by women on a bed looking overwhelmed in another clip, along with a trip home to Italy and pretty much everything you'd expect from a spin-off of A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila.

Just like Tiffany Pollard got booted from Flavor of Love - only to find her dream mate on I Love New York - Domenico Nesci was kicked off A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila.

And now this Italian stud has also landed his very own spin-off reality show.

That's Amore premieres on Sunday, March 2. According to MTV, Domenico will try to find his "American sweetheart" from among 15 bachelorettes.

We wish him the best. There must be someone Tailor Made for Nesci somewhere out there!
