Coca-Cola Zero Facial Profiler, or: Does Anyone Even Remember 1984?

Yeah, okay, this. I actually thought this would be a really cool concept for a dating show - find two sets of people who look almost exactly alike, then send them on a date to see if they can fool each other switching back and forth, or maybe send them out with the mean “twin”, and a less attractive nicer person, but then replace the mean (assumedly hot, per TV rules) “twin” with a nicer version, or heck, replace both with twins and make the uglier one now mean to boot - it could be like The Little Mermaid but with some Twin Peak’s Black Lodge and Reality TV all mashed together. Basically what I’m saying here is that Coke took a promising possibility and turned it into a way for bros to have their labret piercings and baseball capped foreheads get matched up by poorly coded facial recognition software. Oh well.
