Take Me Out Indonesia

    Weekend, I usually stay home during the weekend. Not all the time at home indeed, but when I’m home, sometime I watch TV while having a relaxing time at home. Take Me Out Indonesia/ Take Him Out Indonesia, a TV show which currently becomes a phenomenon in Indonesia often accompany me. Actually, I’d prefer watch some other programs but what can be done when my parents enjoy them so much?
    I mentioned that it has become a phenomenon; I mean that this program has attracted many viewers and got much attention from those who watch it. Quite high rating in some tabloids and mass media. Take Me Out program is about finding a partner, whether a man who want to find a partner in life or woman who want to find a husband. I can hardly understand whether it
is a manipulation or just a fake, but seems so real though a bit not appropriate with existing eastern culture of Indonesia, in where people, especially women, are reluctant to be the one who search for partner in exposed. Moreover in such mass media, where people from every corner of the city can view it. Or may be it’s just because I live in a small city in where people still have the kind of view in finding wife or husband, it has completely changed in the big cities, even in Indonesia perhaps.
    In the program, there will be 30 men (for Take me out) or 30 women (for Take him out) who will be chosen by the woman or the man who want to find a partner in the program. Take for example, take me out, 30 women are standing on the stage, and then a man appears. After that, the women must decide whether to carry on (they have to keep their lamp on) or to give no chance for the man to know her deeper (she must turn the lamp off). Those who keep the lamps on will then be chosen by the man, after the man being chosen, now his chance to choose (only if there are/is women/woman who are/is willing to give him a chance). Seems so complicated, but not in reality. This will last until only one woman left. After that, they can continue to a further relationship (even marriage) if they want to.
    Well, there’s nothing wrong with Take Me Out. Help some people in finding a partner in life is cool but from this program, I just view that there is a change in some used to be existing cultures. Like what I have mentioned before, finding partner in life used to be a private business (I guess) in Indonesia but now has become public consumption. Even more, it now becomes a business commodity. But nothing wrong with this, none statically stays the same in this world. Moreover, this may answer the modern people’s demands. What I mean with modern people are those who are too busy to find a partner in life because of their business in work. By joining the program, I believe that they can easily find a partner. But one thing to consider is that they will still need some more time to get closer with the one he/she finds in personal. And also, we can never know how we will meet or find our future partner. So if this program can help people meeting their partner, Take Me Out will be a valuable program which deserves rating.
