''Flavor of Love'' is an American satire reality television dating game show starring Flavor Flav of the rap group Public Enemy. While not a direct spin-off, the show was a result of Brigitte Nielsen and Flavor Flav's failed relationship on ''Strange Love'', as well as ''The Surreal Life''. Those two series as well as Flavor of Love (Seasons 1-2 only) have aired in repeats on TV Guide Network. The third season of ''Flavor of Love'' began on Monday February 11, 2008 at 9/8c. On May 14, 2008, it was announced that ''Flavor of Love 3'' would be the final ''Flavor of Love''. After 3 seasons, Flavor Flav chose to not marry or date any of the winners from any of the three seasons. Instead, it was revealed that he would marry Liz, the mother of his seventh child, Karma, on the Season 3 reunion show. The show was a ratings success for VH1. The ''Flavor of Love 2'' finale was the second highest non-sports basic cable show of 2006. ==Show format== The show was part of VH1's Celebreality lineup and its format is similar to that of ''The Bachelor''.〔 Twenty different ladies compete for Flavor Flav's heart as they live together in a mansion in Encino, California.〔 He is helped in his quest by his bodyguard and chauffeur named "Big Rick."〔(【引用サイトリンク】Flavor of Love: About Series )〕 He was also assisted by his mother, as well as his former romantic partner Brigitte Nielsen in the first season,〔 and Tiffany Pollard in the second. The show also helped spin off a string of similar VH1 "Love" shows, including ''I Love New York'', ''Rock of Love'', and ''Real Chance of Love''. There were secondary spin-off shows featuring contestants on ''Flavor of Love'', such as ''Flavor of Love Girls: Charm School'', and ''I Love Money''. In the show, each contestant is given a nickname by Flav and is referred to by that nickname for as long as she remains in the competition, as Flav says he can remember nicknames more so than real names. Flavor of Love features a clock ceremony where contestants who are not eliminated receive gold clocks to wear around their necks with their picture and nickname behind the hands of the clock. When a contestant is eliminated, her real name is then revealed, followed by a champagne toast. There are a few basic elements of the show's format that have been consistent through each season of production. Throughout the season the contestants compete for intimate dates with Flav by competing in various challenges. Also, Flav brings the few remaining women's parents on in the third or second to last episode. Finally, the season finale takes place in a tropical destination. The two finalists and Flav spend the last two days at a luxurious resort preceding his final decision. The week following the finale an all-cast reunion is typically aired. The host, La La Vazquez, spends this time reviewing the most memorable moments and interviewing the contestants after they have seen the season. This is also when the viewer finds out if Flav is still with the woman he chose and what they have been up to since the season wrapped. VH1 has also introduced an internet component into the show. Viewers can create profiles, interact with contestants and other fans, and stay current with news at flavorofloveworld.com. In season 3, fans even got to vote online to elect five of the contestants, though Flav sent four of them home in the premiere episode. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Flavor of Love」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
