AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - The Netherlands, the country that has pioneered reality shows like "Big Brother", is planning a new first -- a dating programme for the visibly disfigured.

The broadcaster SBS 6 is seeking candidates for its "Love at Second Sight" show due to be launched on February 20.

"Do you have a visible serious handicap and are you looking for a partner?" says an appeal on its Web site.

"The programme is a platform for people with such problems to share experiences and feelings in a positive way with the rest of the Netherlands and to show that they are absolutely not pitiful," the broadcaster said.

"The main aim of the programme is to remove prejudice about these people, to create more acceptance and respect and, of course, to find the love of their lives."

But the majority of Dutch viewers are turned off by the show that was initially set to be called "Monster Love". A poll by the mass circulation De Telegraaf daily showed 85 percent do not like the idea, with only 9 percent in favour.

just wrong

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

Well we beat them to it :P

Did you guys see Flava Flav? Or that other Bachelor for midgets?

They are not doing it for social acceptance, they are doing it for ratings, because they want people to have a laugh, and keep on watching.

Not nice, so gooooo Dutchmen for not supporting :)

Go Dutchman!! lol I'm from a town founded by the Dutch in 1847 hence the name, Holland.

Although the Dutch around here are Religiously conservative Christian Reformers. Not much like the real Dutch.

What's the big deal? These people want to meet and fall in love too. I'm sure it's incredibly difficult for them to meet people.

And if audiences watch it, they'll see that they are no different, they want the same things.

As long as they treat them with respect, I think it would be interesting.

Anyone ever watch the Documentary "MurderBall" ?? It's real good. It's about WheelChair Rugby?

Gonna try again.
