Shipmates

Shipmates

"Shipmates" was an American syndicated television show that ran for two seasons from 2001 - 2003.

Reruns later ran on the cable channel Spike TV. The show was created by Hurricane Entertainment and the executive producer was John Tomlin. Chris Hardwick was the host. Participants in the show were sent on a blind date on a Carnival Cruise ship, with camera crews following the couple around the clock. The show was widely derided for its combination of poor production values, no substantial role for Hardwick (who had been a central and often very funny part of MTV's "Singled Out" show), and a tendency to have utterly unlikable and in some cases unstable people paired up on its dates. Other people thought that Hardwick's cynical, ironic comments perfectly complemented the poor production values (sometimes referred to as "comedy gold").
