That's right: The Hunger Games star confessed that Richard Grieco's Gigolos was his "guilty pleasure" and called the show addictive. I wouldn't normally out a guy on a thing like this, but Hutcherson didn't exactly 'fess up over one too many drinks--he shared his fascination with the show with Cosmopolitan UK.
He may also have used the word "horrible"--apparently the life of a male escort isn't for Josh, since he also quickly responded, "Not Gigolos!" when asked which reality show he'd like to appear on. But, hey...he's watching.
And he's not alone. Though the first season of the series drew a 30% Metacritic rating, the New York Times said it was "almost impossible to watch," and TVGuide's critic wonder aloud how it could be legal, it was in its second season when Josh Hutcherson confessed to being a reluctant fan. As of this writing, the fourth season just wrapped. IMDB user ratings stand at 5.2, and that's the weighted average--the arithmetic mean and median are significantly higher. Ratings are significantly higher from overseas users than Americans, and viewers aged 30-44 (male and female) posted the highest ratings.
Bottom line: say what you will..someone is watching this show. And liking it.
wow interesting : o
