最红的一档相亲节目《非诚勿扰》主持孟非挟带节目的高人气,最近登上上海电视节“主持人30年年度风云人物”榜。他说,全国各地囚犯也是《非诚勿扰》观众,许多囚犯来信向他诉说自己的情感和生活问题;受“12连跳”困扰的富士康集团也将《非诚勿扰》列为员工减压方式之一,安排员工到现场看节目。
The most popular dating programme《If You Are the One》recently is broadcast in the popular hosting programme, Meng Fei Xie Dai, during the Shanghai TV festival "Annual influential compere of the last 30 years". He said many prisoners around the country watching 《If You Are the One》, write to him to tell their own feelings and life issues; Greatly inspired fù shì health group uses watching 《If You Are the One》as a form of activity for employee to de-stress. They arrange for employee to go to the actual location to watch the programme.

但与此同时,新一代相亲节目也因嘉宾言语太出位而受到舆论抨击,尤其是一些女嘉宾宣称“握一次手要20万”、“宁坐宝马哭,也不在自行车后笑” 等赤裸裸的拜金宣言,更让她们被贴上“拜金女”的负面标签。
At the same time, the participants in the new generation of match-making shows are a bit too verbal and draw public criticism, especially some female guests who announce "shake hand once cost 200, 000", "rather cry inside a BMW, then sit happily behind on a bike" clearly demonstrate their over obession for money, are labelled as "money minded lady" which is a bad image.

一些人质疑,这些相亲节目相的不是“”,而是“”,《非诚勿扰》实际上是《非钱勿扰》,浙江卫视的《为爱向前冲》也该改称《为爱向钱冲》。
Some have questioned, whether the match-making programme is towards "love" or "money". 《If You Are the One》is actually 《If You Are the One》. Zhejiang Satellite TV's 《rush forward due to love》is also renamed as《rush forward due to money》.
