I'm not so sure that it was 4 years well spent. Maybe she could have learned the same thing in about 2 to 3 years, so it looks like around 1 or 2 years is wasted. You are quite stupid to think 4 years were well used.
McCall is absolutely stunning , classy, and sweet. The thought of her investing her creative energy into the date impresses me. Also, her idea to go feed the homeless was an amazing idea. It shows where her heart is, says a lot. Something I believe he may have overlooked. And then hiking to see the city from her perspective was genuine and could have opened up a conversation about what she thought (after five weeks) about the city. Would have had a great time had it been me on that date.
OMG, I love this! I love that McCall provided so many updates in the comments. I’m honestly not surprised that you and Chris are still friends. As I was watching this I thought that you both seem like really chill, good people, just not suited to each other romantically. And I actually really like that idea of doing volunteer work; I like how even though it wasn’t his first choice he said he was still down to help people. Really sweet episode, thanks for sharing! ☺️❤️
Thanks Andrea. It’s kinda fun to read people’s reactive opinions and comments. So many sides to the same story, eh? We each see what we are and take what we want. I dig the varied perspectives, but really it helps remind me to consider other possibilities, and not jump to conclusions in my own life/experience. I only short change myself when I close my mind and act as judge, jury, & journalist, broadcasting my limited visions. In addition, a great reminder that tv (even/especially “reality” tv) is produced, crafted, exaggerated, and curated/edited for a desired effect. It’s made to engage us, but it’s not necessarily the ‘full truth and nothing but the truth’!
@@cherylwilliams4793 Just seeing your comment/question now - a year later… sorry! I never did go out with Joe. Don’t recall why but we both had to cancel last minute and then lost the impetus to reconnect. (Our calls were stilted and non-exciting.) So, yeah, no 2nd date. But Chris and I DO talk every now and then! (He is a dog walker now.)
As wonderful and Noble as handing out food to the homeless and Sharing is, it’s not what you do on the first date. If I had a date who suggested that I would probably shut down to. And then when he did open up and start talking she didn’t like his ideas. So poor Chris was damned if he did and damned if he didn’t. She complain because he was too quiet, and she complained because he was talking too much. Lol seems like one of those men and women games that she was talking about in for that.
@@susiestara0387 Equal is a weird term for men and women. Men do all the most horrendous and dirty and difficult jobs in the world, they are stronger, they are less likely to allow their emotions to interfere with what must be done for the greater good of all, ie; firefighters, paramedics, police, army, navy, marines, protectors of the homeland and the home. I am not in any way saying that women are lesser than men, we balance the men and they need us to bring them down to earth and give them wisdom and strength, love, compassion and nurture so that they can be the warriors
I've seen many love connections, but Mcall would be my favorite woman to go out with. She seems direct and has good ideas of dates, and takes initiatives. OK maybe not the sharpest person with her gender studies thing, but no-one is perfect. What a gem she is. The dude is such a fool to have been like he was.
@@coffeenow2382 Hysterical, considering your COFFEE screen name. I actually have been Director of US/Canadian Sales and Marketing for a couple of commonly known companies. Never have worked at Starbucks, or any fast food places.
I pine for a time when no one cared. It's weird to care so much about other people's choices that do not effect you at all except in your head. You and others like you seem confused. I raised my kids not to care about how people look or dress, let alone how they identify. It's a non issue used to incite fear and hate in the most ignorant amongst us.
I wonder what McCall does these days for work. I could be wrong, but I can't imagine there's much of a job market for a gender studies degree aside from teaching gender studies.
@@harriettemacy7399 So weird. I have watched many love connections and I can't think of any woman who impressed me so much by a long shot. If I, as I am now, had seen someone like her at that time, I would have gone out of my way to get a date with her. She seems quite exceptionnal to me. The guy was a douchbag though. And this is coming from someone who usually prefers the personality of the man over the woman. Interesting how we have very different opinions.
@@chamboyette853 Haha! I love this show and enjoy hearing other's opinions, I am going to have to watch this episode over again to see your point of view on the woman, I already know I liked the guy. If you don't mind telling me, what are you? male or female? Thanks
He was ok but not as smooth- on one episode he made a flirtatious comment to one of the female contestants, when she was clearly hitting it off with the guy she went out with- this was not cool at all. He definitely hit some bump spots that Chuck never did.
@@MisterMooster I totally agree with you. This guy is good, but Chuck was super smooth and charming. He was perfect for this show and always knew what to say. Plus, the ladies loved him!
You got to be ready to date her she s a sturdy & strong lady. Cris looks like he had a rough childhood or something abusive happened to him. I can t put my finger on what it is about him.
Great listener. Great whiner. Not great company. 😂 I had thought the first guy for her. Dancing, rollercoasters and fancy restaurants. That would be a fun day. I hope she had a better date with Joe.
I see now in the comments that you're still friends with Chris. That's great! Now my comment seems mean. I always did wonder if they did a big chop job editing these 'after the date' videos to make the dates that didn't really hit it off look a lot worse than they were. Reality tv. The least real of all. Because at least with other kinds of shows we know the whole show is made up.
Hi well i think she went out with the guy because she felt bad for him when he said some of his dates went to the bathroom and never came back not trying to sound rude maybe that's why they never came back he looked like that wasn't his type but it's not always about the type she was sweet and nice girl but well i quess he didn't really see that in her ok just my opinion i don't know if i am right on it i am just taking a shot on my opinion it's just an opinion may be i am wrong ok either way hopefully he found what he was looking for and hopefully she did also and at times some people just don't have nothing in common well at least they didn't put one another down to bad like some of the other episodes i seen peace be with all✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Joyce, I DO tend to root for the underdog. I’m a Charlie Brown Christmas tree shopper, too. But Chris is a great fella, just no spark between us. We have remained friends, and he actually met my hubby and 2 kids at a concert in the park, where we all celebrated my 46th bday party, a few years ago. (I do not doubt that, at the time, I picked Chris cuz my heartstrings were tugged by his disappearing date tale. Thank God, I’ve grown up a bit since then. I now make choices most likely to increase my own self esteem, not for the sake of others.)
This guy was Raj of Big Bang Theory. One of his dates said he was a good listener & another escaped out the ladies room window. Anybody remember those episodes?
No new tattoos, 20 years married, two teen kids in highly gifted magnets. Never really used the Gender Studies degree, have worked in sales/marketing/biz dev and more recently: publishing. I’m actually one of the happiest people I know. Go fish. PS. Chris and I are still friends!!
They should've never rebooted Love Connection in 1998. This version is awful... Pat Bullard looks like he's trying to impersonate Chuck Woolery and the couches look like they're from Big Lots. lol
That someone who studied gender studies back then would go on Love Connection is pretty hilarious, in and of itself.
I dunno, EFC, it felt almost like a research project at the time. 😜
@@waldoandmccall that thought occurred to me 😂
And proud of it.
Who knew that your education would be useless now, especially in CA.
🤣🤣👍
Good one! 🤣😆🤣
I did😉👍🇨🇦
Lmao, I was thinking the same thing.
Her degree is relevant if she's in psych. Or social field
She had to go to college to figure out that men and women play psychological games with each other? That was four years well spent!
Useless degree.
I'm not so sure that it was 4 years well spent. Maybe she could have learned the same thing in about 2 to 3 years, so it looks like around 1 or 2 years is wasted. You are quite stupid to think 4 years were well used.

Probably 50k owed in loans for a useless degree
She is still paying on her student loans.
Loved the episode
Gender studies degree??? And I thought my college degree was useless. They saw her coming. What a waste of an 'education."
You know she's an obese, Equity and Inclusion Director somewhere now.
She was ahead of her time though as far as tats go.
Yeah. Gender studies sounds suspicious
@@takemyshoesoff3350 yes it does, that is if suspicious is a slang word for - Stupid

This was before men knew to run for the hills whenever they heard "gender studies" from women.

The host is no Chuck Woolery : (
9.tatoos back then would've not.been accept on a girl they Def would be called trash.
Wha the .... where's Chuck?????
This is pat Bullard. It's 1998 to 1999
The Pat Bullard hosted Love Connection aired in the 1998-99 season.

Times 10!
Looks like a meth head
If his hair was long he'd look just like cris degarmo of queensryche
I loved you on the show! So relatable. How was Joe?
Never did go out with Joe!
"gender studies" lmfao might as well get a degree salad dressings

Christopher looks like he might be on something. He's got the moves and expressions of a tweaker.
damn mcall had to dole out $40 in the 80s that would be like $150 today geez!
These were the 90's.
Also, I didn’t HAVE to, I chose to. ;-)
This aired 98-99
That guy had less energy than Joe Biden!
I know I didn't think that was possible...🤣
I would too if on a first date the girl wanted to hand out food parcels. Later, yes. But not the first date.
😂😂😂
He had more than trump
McCall needs a well fitting bra
I’m her mother I named her after mag and I heard it in a previous movie as her kind mother
Uhhh… you are most certain NOT my mother.
McCall's was a fine magazine from the 1960's, according to the nursing home brigade.
He's one to have an attitude
Chuck's stunt double hosting the show?
Your channel name contains a spoiler!
OU...I played tennis for Kent State...BEST road trip/bars in the MAC
Trying to picture McCall on a date with McFly🤔🤔
Chuck Woolery?

I would have gotten along perfectly with that guy💖
Disagree, I would have not liked that guy but have gotten along well with Mcall.

McCall is a nice name.
McCall looks a bit like Drew Barrymore to me.
Wild. My own MOM has always said the same thing!
@@waldoandmccallwhat’s wild to me is the the actual McCall responded to my comment 😊
Probably from Chagrin Falls...entitled
We have a whole generation of people who need to take the gender courses McCall took
Yeah right. "We" have a whole generation of wokeness, virtue signaling lunatics who often have a gender studies degree...who work at Starbucks.
@@OdiesMama Perfect., cause I never spend 5 dollars on a cup of coffee.
McCall, a beautiful woman.
Just being with her, that is all that matters. Enjoy her
man o man talk about a LOW energy guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he was doomed from the get go. Shes a man hater. Her goal was emasculation from the beginning.
That guy seemed kind of arrogant and whiney🙄. No eye contact either. McCall was a very nice young lady on the other hand.
Chris and I are actually still friends. We don’t talk often, but have remained in contact.
She didn't have much to choose from.
@Jason Michael. I disagree the second one seemed okay.
She definitely didn't. Ugh 😣😫
The dude-It’s like they woke up a zombie to participate in this show.
would you be excited about dating her?
She tried. I would say she's a great catch. The goofy looking guy just wanted q to be miserable. He looks in mirror and see brad Pitt
HMMM...Who is this guy? Anyway, this Lady sounds like she's "too hip to be square" - I'll be surprised if this works out
It u tell America then the spokesmen says it’s wait menace words
