I Love New York: The Complete Unrated First Season

Product Description The most memorable character from Flavor of Love is leaving the spitfests, catfights and heartbreaks behind. New York is moving on and still looking for love. But this time, she's standing on the other side of the clock, 'cause VH1 and the producers of Flavor of Love have given the sassy siren her own show, her own mansion and 20 guys to choose from. But she's not going it alone. New York and her mom, Sister Patterson, put these men through the paces - testing them on everything from physical prowess, to "daddying" skills, to earning potential and more. In the end, the man with the most love for New York could just walk away with her heart.

And while New York proclaims to be shocked that some of them are on the show for other reasons than to win her over, the audience isn't. Of course these wannabe actors-models-singers are hoping the series is their springboard to fame. Why would anyone want New York? Or at least the New York that Pollard presents? Besides being a high maintenance super diva with little to offer, she also comes with an equally overbearing mother (who, to her credit, is hysterical in her assessment of the men). On the plus side, it is refreshing to watch New York dismiss her suitors wi
