YMMV / Snog, Marry, Avoid?

Go To

  • Accidental Aesop: You should of course strive to make complete strangers want to marry you from a first glance. Forget about getting to know someone and all that nonsense.
  • Do Not Do This Cool Thing: Admit it. Some of the participants make their fakery looks quite appealing.
  • Fans Prefer the New Her: Ellie got hair extensions in one episode which POD was enraged about. Ellie looked very nice indeed with her hair longer.
  • Fridge Brilliance: In one of the "Frost's Fixes" segments, Jenny gives advice on how to make hair look like you've been at the beach. It's very likely she learned how to do this filming the Atomic Kitten video for "It's OK".
  • Replacement Scrappy: Ellie Taylor replacing Jenny Frost. Ellie spends so much time trying to be funny that there's less time for the actual makeovers, and she comes across as quite rude and obnoxious when trying out non-conformist trends, or when talking to the girls who are getting made under. Jenny didn't take up any extra time, and she was perfectly sweet to everyone she met.
    • Although, some people might find Ellie's style of presenting and Vitriolicbest Buds dynamic with POD far more entertaining and funny than Jenny's, who could be arguably quite bland.
  • Squick: One contestant had a split tongue - she could even clap with it!
  • Trapped by Mountain Lions: The little segments "Beauty Bytes" and "Frost's Fixes" which don't have anything to do with the contestants.
  • Unnecessary Makeover:
    • While some contestants are caked in make-up and false tan and could do with toning things down, a lot of the time someone with original and unique taste is stripped off all originality for the sake of boring conformity.
    • Some of the contestants have actually performed this trope on themselves, now in a state where they can't face the public without hours spent in preparation.
