Format

Each show had ten men compete in front of audience of 400 women, in a spoof of male beauty pageants. They would compete in a series of challenges such as posing in swimming trunks, or trying to impress the women with the best pickup lines. The audience then voted for which one they liked the best, with a number of eliminations in each round, and each man eliminated was pushed into a swimming pool by one of the show's models. The last man left standing won a motorcycle.
