algebra

I agree with you: Jess is a shit-stirrer, Ryan D has anger issues, which is why they were matched, for good TV fireworks. Jaclyn is strong and outgoing so she was matched with a recluse who lives like a spider in his mom's basement, so they were matched for TV. Sean and Davina were also matched for maximum incompatibility. Sean was bullied as a child and deals with conflict by disappearing, Davina was abandoned as a child and reacts to a partner's disappearance with hysterics. The experts knew exactly who they matched with whom. They deliberately matched these couples up to be as incompatible as possible, ergo, the premise was fraudulent.

I think Epstein is the weirdest, most immature person in the group, but that's what academia will do to you. Those Ivory Towers are havens for Peter Pan and the Lost Boys. Levkoff is a wannabe porn star, enjoys the attention she gets from talking about sex but her act only works on teenagers. Cilona's just full of shit and gets the adulation he craves over on the baby board; posters here are better educated than the posters there who keep telling him how brilliant he is. Poor Dr Pepper got thrown in with this collection of narcissists and I pictured her watching these episodes while eating frosting out of tubs and drinking wine out of cardboard boxes.

The experts should be sequestered for the whole 6 weeks with no one to talk to but each other

So tonight I saw Episode 1 of UNReal and now I know what you are talking about. The viewers were supposed to love Sean and Basement , hate Mr Restraining Order, and, Javlyn and Basement were supposed to stay together, and the 'Spurts were supposed to look like very knowledgeable insightful geniuses. Too bad the 'Spurts came off looking like the most incompetent collection of clowns.

Interesting question; for some reason "marital status" is a box on almost every official form we have here. There have been cases of former spouse's assets being seized for tax liens and such. It's so easy to hide assets under a spouse's name that often it is assumed that's what you've done. It's sort of up to you to prove your assets really are yours, not a former spouse's. So I suppose if your ex runs up a lot of debt, the creditor might come after you even if it's been years since you were married.

I don't care what they do. I'm not going to watch another one. They could, however ramp it up on the sensibility meter and follow couples through the process of adopting a child. At the end of 6 months they could stage a big reveal as to whether they will keep the kid or not. I'm just saying this for the benefit of people who are thinking "reality TV couldn't sink lower than MAFS," I just want you to realize "sure they can."

I agree. If he wants a mommy he should move back in with his own. Doesn't she have a basement too?

Epstein is no longer an atheist. He believes that he, himself, is God. They worship him on the baby board. He's a "doctor" you know.

Of course everything happens for a reason. You got matched with a loser because the matchmakers were idiots. The matchmakers are idiots because their parents dropped them on their heads. Their parents dropped them on their heads because they were careless. They were careless because they were distracted. They were distracted because they saw squirrels on the bird feeders. The squirrels were on the bird feeders because they were hungry. They were hungry because the tree containing their stash of acorns was cut down. The tree was cut down because it has Dutch Elm Disease. Yes everything happens for a reason. Davina and Sean were matched because of Dutch Elm Disease.

The producers did everything they could to make Davina look bad because she called the 'Spurts out early on their incompetence. This is how they will keep the Season 3 participants in line. "If you don't worship us we'll make you out to be a horrible person."

I think the 'Spurts were really pissed because this season was such a disaster that the brand has been damaged and the next season is in jeopardy. which means they will have to get real jobs. And the season 1 couples were watching their lifetime of reunion specials circle the drain.

While I think Davina was high maintenance and very demanding, she wanted a strong man and she got Sean. I can't blame her for being mad at the experts, and she let them know they had made a bad match. And all they could say was they put them together because they'd both been bullied as kids. On what planet does that make for a good match? So because she blamed the experts for the bad match, they retaliated by blaming her for not making it work. That's their whole game, if the participants tell the hacks that "you made a good match but we failed," the hacks smile and nod and congratulate them for trying. If the participants state the obvious, that the match stunk, the hacks insist it's the participants' fault.

He was on TV. That's all it takes.

I just saw a post supposedly by Jaclyn that while she was in Key West for five days, Basement didn't even feed her cat.

The thing about the "insider" was when Basement responded and said he didn't know who the insider was but he had a pretty good idea and that was "sad." That tells me he thought it was one of the women. The insider also said none of the men were really interested in being married. Got that right!

Think about it: when you live in the city, you hear sirens 24 hours a day, and probably learn to ignore it eventually, because they don't concern you. But when you work in an ER, sirens mean "incoming!" And you get an adrenaline rush and go into action. You don't sleep through it, which means life in the city equates to severe sleep deprivation.

Sean reminds me somewhat of an ex. He cried a lot, too. And I remember reading a book about relationships, I can't remember the author or title, but it said that women should avoid men who cry, because, while it is true that they are in touch with feelings, the only feelings they are in touch with are their own. Yep.

I believe that the women were lured into prostitution with promises of love and devotion, and the producers should be charged with human trafficking

I felt sorry for the women, it does seem they all went into this hoping to find real husbands, but the men weren't interested in being husbands. And it annoyed me that the " experts" blamed the participants. Back around 1965 I had a history teacher who often said that an ex-spurt is just a has-been drip under pressure

Aha, so Season 2 was the placebo group. While Season 1 couples were really matched with compatible partners, the Season 2 couples were matched with incompatible partners to see if they would make it work if they simply believed they were compatible. Well I guess the experts got their results All I can figure out about the baby board is that they are all highly hormonal women who worship anybody titled "Doctor." I get that; pregnancy does that.

Well it was awesome until it got to the part about an oath to "do no harm." Only physicians take the Hippocratic oath.

The links don't work. We need screen shots before the items are deleted

Apparently part 2 will also be aired tonight. Bet they figured by next week there would be an injunction stopping them

Starting with his tone of voice when he ordered her to "get up" at the reception
