  • I think the title "undatables" is offensive towards the people on the show. I would not go on a show that talked down to me. I have autism too and it does not make dating easy. However it has also shown me that most humans are shallow and care more about popularity because of their selfish needs. I would not want to pretend to be someone else to date someone because they wouldnt be worth my time if they didnt actually like me for the way i am.

    • Agreed. Thats sad that someone would say something like that.

    • Actually, if you watch it, it's very touching and doesn't patronise the people on it in the slightest.

      However, I do very much agree that the majority of humanity is shallow.

      At the end of the day - in my eyes - it gets people talking and thinking about disabilities when they otherwise wouldn't normally.

      P.S. One of the people on the show today is actually autistic himself.
