Beauty and the Geek

So last night we turned on the TV to watch while we dined. Before we could change the channel to something we actually wanted to watch, on came a show called Beauty and the Geek. According to Wikipedia the premise is,

"each season, 8 'beauties' (young women who have relied primarily on their looks thus far in life) and 8 'geeks' (young men who have relied primarily on intellect and are socially inept) are paired up to compete as couples for $250,000 and other prizes."
The TV came on just in time to hear a panel member ask a Beauty contestant, "Who wrote Beethoven's Fifth? Her answer? "Well, I don't know. I don't read many books."
