Format
Similar to A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila, episodes typically include challenges (either team or individual) with a date with Domenico as the prize. Nesci deliberates with Ashley his consigliere near the end of the episode and an elimination ceremony takes place. During elimination, Domenico calls forward the women that he chooses to remain in the mansion and presents them with an Italian flag while asking "Will you be my bambina?"
Although Megan won, she and Domenico didn't stay together long, breaking up after only a month.[4] It was report they just moved on with their lives.[5]
