As an award-winning filmmaker, actor and entrepreneur, Damian Muziani is no Average Joe. Or is he?

The 36-year-old Glassboro resident will be among the 18 men competing for one woman's attention on the television show Average Joe IV: The Joes Strike Back, which airs at 8 p.m. Tuesday on NBC.

"It was an awful lot of fun," Muziani said of being on the show. "I would do it again in a heartbeat."

A thousand men from all over the country competed for the 18 slots, NBC spokeswoman Jill Carmen said.

"Damian is a good ol' boy from Philly and a member of Mensa," Executive Producer Stuart Krasnow said. "How could we not pick him?"

The audition process started in Philadelphia and ended in Los Angeles. It was Muziani's first visit to California.

"It was kind of like a job interview," Muziani said. "They were very upfront and said, `We brought more people to L.A. than will be on the show,' but I was confident that I'd be selected."

Taping began shortly after the Los Angeles auditions, and the Joes had to live together for as long as they were in the show. Muziani shared a bedroom with 11 other men.

"There were six bunk beds in the room," Muziani said. "I was in the bottom bunk, and the guy on the top bunk must have weighed 350 pounds."

And when 12 men who want to date the same woman share a room, sparks are bound to fly.

"I think anytime you fill a house with that many guys, there's going to be some conflict," Muziani said. And the cameras captured it all.

"There are cameras in every room, crews following you around," Muziani said.

Muziani said he'd rather be on Average Joe than any other reality show.

"You're not forced to jump off a cliff while eating a snake, you're not starving in some secluded island," Muziani said.
