Yes I can appreciate his honesty. But as you can see, his negative thinking brought him the one city he didn't want (or so he claimed). He really needs an energy cleanse and attitude adjustment.

My fave mangaka once commented that if you think positively, good things will happen to you; she also said that if you think negatively, negative or bad things will come your way. So Andre gives our example of negative:If you think a town "has nothing" or is "not worth your time" that's how your experience is going to be. He made SLC look bad and now Oklahoma City. He has no appreciation for the research that TP employees go through just to give him places to see and go to. The part that bothers me the most about Andre is he's an otaku snob. He's from a urban place, so I can see why smaller cities are "boring" to him, but that's no excuse for sarcasm, negativity, & snobbery. B/c of this attitude, all his interviews and clips are "fake" and come across as him looking down his nose at the other otaku out there. It's painful to have to endure listening to/watching him every episode. Downright painful. Diana's the only good thing about his team.Now for positive thinking:Sully from Seattle & Stephan from NY are both from larger, more urban cities (although Sully's city is not as big as Stephan's and Andre's) but they still managed to show sincere enthusiasm, respect, and interest in the otaku culture that existed in Nashville instead of complaining "Why do we get the middle of no where? Waahhh!" Even when they met their AGO candidate in the "country", they still pulled it off with style and class. Well done guys on ending this in a very positive note!
Haters, that is funny. I can see why you laughed. I was serious when I said I love the Japanese, their culture, and having lived there I know what that is. I thought the family was cool, impractical but cool, and the good things on the show just about ends with them; bento place was a good find too. I've done my share of cosplay and conventions, and I have a well balanced collection of my own (pretty small comparatively though).
This show is about otakus and their love for Japanese culture, not about their social skills and other characteristics. You can't wholly judge on contenders' personalities based on their interviews; they could be the most outgoing and friendly people off-screen.
