Update: Check out our recap of tonight’s season finale to see who Mark picked.
Tonight on Age of Love we’ll complete our journey with Mark Philippoussis, 30, as he tries to discover if age really matters when it comes to love. Last week Mark didn’t even get the chance to eliminate anyone as there was a double self-elimination! First Maria finally lived up to her threats and told Mark she was pulling out of the contest. Mark replied that he had been planning to keep her around at least another week. I was getting tired of Maria’s crap and was glad to see her leave. I was sorry though to see the youngest contestant, Megan, drop out of the contest because she was too terrified to fly to Australia. The producers should count their lucky stars that they didn’t lose one more person or this show would have ended rather abruptly. With just two ladies left, Jennifer (the oldest Cougar) and Amanda (Kitten), Mark has just one more decision to make.
Before Mark makes that final decision he’ll be looking to his family for answers as they try to help him pick. I can’t imagine anyone in his family encouraging him to select the 48 year old woman, Jennifer, but since that would be a “shocking” conclusion to the show I wouldn’t be surprised. Honestly, I hope he does pick Jennifer over Amanda. Amanda has just gotten to be too neurotic and controlling for a dating show. Each week she’s been stunned by the idea that Mark is dating women other than just her. Apparently Amanda doesn’t watch much reality TV if she’s confused by this set up. The promo for tonight’s episode has promised us that if we think we know who he picks we’re wrong. With only two choices I don’t see how every one of us could be wrong, unless he picks his dog of course. Hmm, maybe that’s an idea of next season with “Species of Love”! Okay, that went too far.
So who do you think Mark will pick? Jennifer, the oldest Cougar, or Amanda, the clingy Kitten? The only thing that’ll surprise me at this point is if neither of the last two ladies walks off the set. Let’s see what you do Mark. Good luck!
