Chachi -- 45 and Single?

San Fernando Valley lothario Scott Baio, who has allegedly had his way with numerous Hollywood honeys -- including Heather Locklear, Pamela Anderson, Denise Richards and Nicollette Sheridan -- is now 45 and still single. What?
Scott Baio, VH1
Chachi, seen here with pal Jason Hervey (Wayne on "Wonder Years"), is now joining the rank ranks of Flava Flav and Bret Michaels on VH1 to search for a soulmate. The show will follow Baio as he tries to find himself while enduring a mid-life crisis, wondering why he's still single and unable to settle down -- not even with his current girlfriend, Renee. Walk away, Renee!

Baio has agreed to fully surrender the next eight weeks of his life to exhaustive introspection with a life coach, Dr. Alison Arnold, otherwise known as "Doc Ali." Doc Ali will try to get to the core of his problem, and Scott will be forced to revisit some ex-girlfriends -- and take a vow of celibacy.

If the lengthy list of Scotty's beam-ups is true, a vow of celibacy might not stick!

76. Are these guys desperately in need of money, or just desperately in need of attention? Serious question...can't figure it out.

78. Totally Agree -Norasee. He doesn't need to be married. Scott likes to play- he just needs to find a bi-girl to play with him and be his friend, so he is not alone in his old age. Marriage will kill him, it is definately no party.

79. One episode and I'm already hooked. It's like watching a train crash. I cannot take my eyes off of it, waiting to see what happens next. Even if Scott Baio wasn't the celebrity I would want to watch it. Seeing him being raked over the coals by the ex-girlfriends is mesmerizing. And how often does a player look back at the swath of destruction he caused, apologize, and try to change? This is a guilty pleasure just like Rock of Love. (Watching all those drunk women fight over Brett Michaels is hilarious!)

81. Holy jeez-what the hell kind of real psychologist talks like this woman? This has got to be a joke. And OMG all "da friends that are frum Brooklun" are so wannabee Soprano knockoffs. TRAIN WRECK. I only had to see the little dork from Wonder Years with a cigar in his mouth bigger than his dink talk like he was da knock off Tony Soprano to make this whole thing sick. Does Chachi just choose hisloser friends because they are shorter than him btw? I would be so scared of this ugly dweeb posee coming my way. Sad what has become of pathetic chachi

83. Tonight's episode, in which Scott asks the life coach for the umpteenth time how he can possibly commit to a woman who he presumes will appear grotesque to him years down the road, finally made me realize what is keeping him single.

He has not, cannot and likely will not ever felt deeply about anything or anyone, which is why he feels no guilt for his prior behavior, which he attributes to being himself. He never speaks of the pain these women likely endured and he is not apologetic for causing it. Nor does he appear to have ever felt any pain himself.

Frankly, I am surprised that a man like this would own an animal, and I think this relationship should be, for the sake of all women in the world, the extent of his commitment.

I am sure he thinks he wants to marry and have children, because this is what society encourages. But someone with so little, if any, depth would, in my opinion, best serve society by avoiding marriage and avoiding fathering any children. I see any marriage ending in divorce, and nothing but pain and misery for the woman and any children from such a union.

Initially, he stated that his fear is being alone when he's older or dying alone. As he ages, into his late 80s or 90s, if he should live that long, he can hire an in-home health care worker. In this way, he will always be able to get what he wants and not have to worry about making a commitment. Until then, he can continue to hang out with his buddies and live like a college student, although they'll all look pretty silly doing this when they're in their 60s, 70s and beyond.

But then he can do another reality series about a life coach who visits him in the residential care home where he and his buddies live.
