''I Love New York'' is a [[VH-1]] reality television series. It features Tiffany Pollard (better known as "New York") in a quest to find her true love. The series is a spin off of another relationship competition series, ''[[Flavor of Love]]'', which featured Pollard as a finalist in two consecutive seasons.
Whereas ''[[Flavor of Love]]'' tried to redefine [[Crazy Awesome]], ''[[I Love New York]]'' stays firmly in [[So Bad It's Good]] territory. It's in every way a [[Distaff Counterpart]] to ''[[Flavor of Love]]'': expect the lineup of hot men to get into catfights, burst out crying, do each other's hair and shake their thongs.
After {{spoiler|Tango}}, the winner of the show's first season, failed to deliver as New York's soul mate, the second season aired, revealing {{spoiler|Tailor Made}} as New York's chosen flame. Somehow, during the taping of her latest show ''New York Goes to Hollywood'', New York dumps him.
In addition to Pollard, a host of other individuals from ''[[Flavor of Love]]'' joined in, including "Sister" Patterson (Pollard's mother) who appeared on the show to help Pollard choose the right man. Mauricio Sanchez played New York's assistant, "Chamo," but only for the first season.
A third season has recently been announced.
Spinoffs include:
* ''New York Goes To Work''
Line 27:
* [[Aesop Amnesia]]: New York eliminates Onix for saying Sister Patterson's church performance was an act, and why did Tango dump her? Because she insulted his mother. Come season two, it's obvious she hasn't learned her lesson as she's back at insulting the contestants family members (Pretty and Punk's Mothers and Sisters<ref>Via commentary in Punk's case</ref>, and Buddha's father). Pretty [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here|even leaves]] because of this.
* [[All of the Other Reindeer]]: Tailor Made, who compares this to being "The new guy in prison".
* [[Arch Nemesis]]:
** Season 1: Chance and Mr. Boston, Tango and Whiteboy
*** Chance and Mr. Boston temporarily set aside their differences in ''[[I Love Money]]'', to pair up for what they ''thought'' would be an eating contest. It turned out to be a ''kissing'' contest. Mr. Boston was up for it, Chance... wasn't.
** Season 2: Tailor Made and Buddha
* [[Becoming the Mask]]: Tango said that he wanted Tiffany Pollard, but got [[VH-1]]'s New York instead.
* [[Camp Gay]]: Chamo
* [[Clip Show]]
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: New York has her moments. She's afraid of parrots because they don't have "English diction".
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: Mr. Boston vs. Chance in a boxing match.
* [[Devil in Plain Sight]]: Tailor Made, at first. When the guys start to catch on, they do ''everything'' they can to (a) get him out of the house and (b) get New York to notice. But she always forgives him. The man appears to be channeling [[American Psycho|Patrick Bateman]].
Line 41:
* [[Expy]]: Unsure of Romance. He even lampshaded this on a casting special when he mentioned he looked like "the guy who was crying about his dead dog."
* [[Everyone Meets Everyone]]
* [[
* [[Foot Focus]]: The Entertainer sucking on New York's toes.
* [[Handsome Lech]]: The Entertainer.
Line 52:
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: Tailor Made
* [[Mistaken for Gay]]: Again, 12 Pack and Heat. And then it turns out that 12 Pack used to work as a stripper. At a gay club.
* [[Money, Dear Boy]]: In a later interview, Real and Chance say they were simply scouted for the show on [[Myspace]] and were lured in by the money. They had no idea the casting would be for a show about New York. Both brothers claim that they always thought of New York as a big joke -- although Chance did enjoy all the sex.
** 12 Pack literally said he was only there to get camera time. Others weren't quite so open about it, but got eliminated for the same reason anyway.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]
Line 68:
* [[Spin-Off]]: ''Real Chance of Love'', ''A Basement Affair''.
** New York gets two herself: ''New York Goes To Hollywood'' and ''New York Goes To Work.''
* [[Stealth Parody]]: Mr. Boston in his new web series, [http://www.bostonsymposium.com/videos.html Boston Symposium]. He may have been trolling us all along.
** He was definitely trolling for most of ''[[I Love Money]]'', but it couldn't hide the fact that deep down, he's ''still'' a big dork.
* [[The Ugly Guy's Hot Daughter|The Ugly Woman's Hot Son]]: Punk in comparison to his mother and sister as New York even stated that he got all the looks in his family.
