I guess I'm in the minority, because I'm enjoying this season. I was getting really sick of watching the same people running the game and making it into the finals every season. These new people are hooking up and causing drama, which I think has been lacking over time.

I don't understand the grounding diet thing that made all the women fat. Does Jeff have a thing for fat women? As others have said, I totally see this devolving into him having multiple twin flames.

Super duper late to this, but the Savage Land crap is boring. Excited to get back to the "Utopia".

LOL, yes, I cannot wait until Christine finds out about the boob grab. I feel like she's going to forgive him though. She is sooooo into him. I would love to see an all-out orgy omg! Also, looks like that one guy said EFF IT and is trying to get laid! Hilarious.

Anyone watching the new season? There's some great drama already from the first 4 eps.

I agree, I don't like Valmir, and think he's just there to be on tv. I didn't like Daniel the second he turned on the other woman he was dating (her name escapes me) for talking about sex . He brought it up, and was actively engaged in the conversation! And now he's all bothered that his current fiancé doesn't want to bang in front of the cameras. I agree about Agata. Her jealously is definitely going to come into play big time when they're in the "real world". I love the friendships between the women. The men are a bit off-putting with their constant howling lol.

That finale was a mess, and I am here for it. I read somewhere that Lexi couldn't get past fingergate after the finale, and that was why she and Rae broke up. Tbh, I never really saw chemistry between them as a couple. Mal was PISSED, and rightfully so. I don't believe for a second that nothing happened between Yoli and Xander at Cochella. Yikes @ Tiff and Mildred. It's a really good thing that they're over. I want Sam to be my best friend.

Hot take: I don't think any of them should get married.

I agree with most of your post. Rae is cute, but not too bright it seems. Lexi is the most mature person I've ever seen on tv, and she's only 24! Aussie and Tiff are both a big yikes. Run, Sam! Mal is super cute. I cannot stand Vanessa. She is definitely only there for the cameras and attention. She's just gross.

My husband and I just finished binging this. What a great show! We loved every minute.

I was wondering the same thing! Isn't that the main point of engagement photos? How fucking awkward. All of this! I used to like Chelsea, but she is so demanding and controlling. The way she behaved when she was shopping and he had to sit there and act delighted to be in her presence. The way she force-fed him a strawberry after he said NO made me super uncomfortable. It's like she's putting on an act for the cameras, desperately wanting the world to think they're so in love, when we can all see that she's way more into him than he is into her. Everything has to be on her timeline (he wants to enjoy their marriage for a few years before they have kids, yet she is insistent on kids within a year). All of their dates and outings have been things that SHE wants to do...bathing her dog, bizarre boudoir photo shoot, shopping for HER at some crazy expensive-looking boutique. Idk how Kwame hasn't snapped yet, because I would have.

I am really surprised by all the Zack love here. To me, he and Bliss have 0 chemistry. The dinner at his house when he was trying to dance with her made me cringe so hard, I had to look away. And then the awkward kiss and proposal on the boat...I was screaming in discomfort. I know she'll say yes, because she wants to stay on the show, but I really don't see them lasting. Like, mega yikes.

Totally agree! Yes! I'm no Irina fan (except for the petty drama she brings, for which I am a sucker), but it did NOT seem like Micah was into Paul until she found out that Irina was interested in him. Now she's suddenly ready to spend the night "in bed" with him, and is acting all cutesy and protective over him. As P2C2E said above: Bitch, please.

Not true. Pretty sure they all had to "date" him in the pods.

Oh yeah! The best part of this episode was Bitchy Irina and Creepy Zack trying to one-up each other on who can be the most passive-aggressively hurtful while brushing their teeth 🤣. I was SCREAMING!

Really? He gives me serial killer vibes. I just finished binge-watching. Random thoughts: I would hate Micah and Irina IRL, but they are entertaining as hell on this train-wreck of a show. Jackelina is soooo pretty, and I love her personality. I felt so bad for her during her nervous breakdown. It sounds like she has a lot to deal with when she gets back home. I get that her man is not her type ordinarily, but I love that she's giving him an honest try. Really, Kwame? Ew. Micah is not even attractive to me, so I don't get it at all. I could tell that Chelsea was feeling him wayyyy more than he was feeling her since they met face-to-face, but still. His behavior was not a good look. Brett is so handsome, and Tiffany seems like an amazing person. They make a great match, and I'm rooting for them! I was cracking up at the ladies' conversations about Zack. "Guilty!" "Jail immediately!" BAHAHAH.

Not crazy about unconventional materials challenges, so this one was meh for me.

Oh, he absolutely would have remained in their shadows. They were douchebag shitheads, but they were hilarious and had tons of charisma. John can be funny at times, but he has the charisma of a piece of cardboard.

I miss those!

I'm surprised she didn't say anything bad about Olivia and Dom when given the chance! I maybe gained a touch of respect for her in that moment. I cackled when Joey and Kariselle lost to Olivia and Dom. He proposed for nothing! I wonder if they're still together? Off to Google I go... Barqueef is an awful person. I did wonder why Abbey behaved so differently on this show compared to how she was on Twenty Somethings, so I guess I have him to thank(?) for clearing that mystery up for me. This show is such a god damn mess. Can't wait for another season!

Nah, the teacher is definitely racist. Not overtly, but the microaggressions are all there.

I do that sometimes when I'm really drunk...so I have to wonder if these people are drunk the entire time. 🤣 Raven and Paris are awesome, and Sam is hilarious (but she takes offense to everything, which gets annoying). Xanthi is annoying, but she's good at being a catfish...her partner is dull AF.

Someone save Colleen! It looked like Matt was trying to smother her the entire time, and she looked terrified. Idk what to make of the cuties scene. I think Cole just talks to much, and is insensitive at times, and Zenab is super sensitive and insecure. As others have stated, they are such a mismatch. Zenab is trying to create this whole narrative around her being the one and only victim in this scenario, and the internet is NOT having it. SK and Raven are adorable.

The life of the empress was so interesting, but this show is a bit of a yawn.

Season finale already! This show has exceeded all of my expectations in every way. An absolutely brilliant adaptation that would have made Anne Rice proud.
