'''''Beauty and the Geek''''' is a [[reality]] television series on [[The CW Television Network|The CW]]. It has been advertised as "The Ultimate Social Experiment" and is produced by [[Ashton Kutcher]], [[Jason Goldberg]] and [[Nick Santora]].
The premise of the show consists of a group of "Beauties" (young women who have relied primarily on their looks) and a group of "Geeks" (young men who have relied primarily on intellect rather than social aptitude or looks) who are paired up to compete as couples for a shared $250,000 and other prizes. (For the fourth season, the producers modified the formula to include an extra team consisting of a male "beauty" and a female "geek". For the fifth season, the beauties and geeks competed against each other at first, and teams of one beauty and one geek were not selected until the end of episode three.) Each beauty lives together in a room with her geek during the course of the competition. There are challenges shown each episode, one testing the beauties on a primarily academic subject, and another that has the geeks competing in a more popular/social realm. The winners of the challenges select two teams to compete against each other in a pure "quiz show" type question and answer session: the team with fewer correct answers gets eliminated.
By the end of the competition, many of the contestants say that they have learned much about interacting with people from a different social group (and positive lessons about the character of people from that group), positive things about themselves and their own character, and often something about human nature in general.
The theme song, "[[Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)]]" by the [[Pet Shop Boys]] (originally released in 1985), is used also on the British, Danish and Belgian-Dutch versions. Commercial [[Promotion (marketing)|promos]] for the show featured a different theme song, "[[The Geeks Get the Girls]]" by [[American Hi-Fi]].
Following the second season, the American version moved to [[The CW Television Network]], the new network formed when both [[The WB Television Network|The WB]] and [[UPN]] ceased operations in September 2006. The two-hour season premiere for the third season aired Wednesday, January 3, 2007 at 8:00 p.m. [[Eastern Time Zone (North America)|EST]] on The CW. The fourth season premiered on September 18, making ''BATG'' the first series to premiere for the CW for the 2007-08 television season. ''Beauty and the Geek'' was renewed for a fifth season, which premiered on March 12, 2008.
The fifth season was put on indefinite hiatus in order to stoke renewed interest in the show, and perhaps the addition of innovative twists to the format.<ref>Adalian, Josef.

''First aired February 14, 2007
All previously eliminated contestants were brought back to spend one more night in the mansion and to assess which of the final two teams had undergone the most personal change. Their votes on this question would determine the winner of the $250,000 grand prize. The majority of the contestants were torn between wanting Nate to win, and his partner, Cecille, to lose. Nate, believing that winning would only reinforce Cecille's behavior, eventually asked contestants to vote against him. This led to Megan and Scooter winning 7 to 2, with the remaining contestants not voting once a majority had been reached.
* Winners of Beauty and the Geek: Megan & Scooter
* Runner-ups: Cecille & Nate
====Beauties and Geeks Reunite====
''First aired February 21, 2007
Megan and Scooter and the other eliminated cast members reunite to talk about their experiences on the show and what is in store for them in the future.
==Season 4==
Season 4 featured several changes and was by far the most controversial one. One male beauty is paired with one female geek, but the rest of the pairs remained the same way (i.e. a male geek and a female beauty). The season was also extended from 8/9 episodes to 13, featuring a recap on week 7 and the cast growing from eight pairs to ten. This was also the first season to have a pair voted out (Natalie and John on week 8) instead of eliminated through a quiz, which sparked some controversy, much like Sam's previous experience in show business, despite the fact that many other beauties had some previous acting experience as well. In episode 6 the geeks have their make-overs

{{note|1|1}} For this challenge, one member of each team was to temporarily join the opposing team. It was then revealed that if the team lost their new member would be automatically eliminated.
{{note|2|2}} The remaining beauties were asked to pair up with a geek. Tara, the last beauty, chose Joe, eliminating Jonathan since he was left with no partner.
{{note|3|3}} After winning the challenge, Leticia & Matt were given the right to pick one team to go with them at the world premiere of ''[[Prom Night (2008 film)|Prom Night]]'' and chose Randi and Greg. The four remaining teams had to send one team to elimination for the next week and had chosen Tara and Joe after a geek drag fashion show contest.
{{note|4|4}} Instead of elimination trivia, each losing team cast a vote for another team to be eliminated. Since the teams all had one vote, Tommy and Amanda picked Kristina and Jason as a tie breaker, sending them home.
