I got episodes 2-11 which is all but the first and the reunion. That's OK though. Didn't matter so much missing the first episode. The reunion would be fun to see. Reunions usually are entertaining. I think I had set my DVR to record the series when they showed S1 E1-2 or 3 on Bravo before they moved to Peacock. So it just automatically started recording this season on Bravo.

My parents used to soak wine labels off of bottles to keep. They would write the date and maybe the occasion and names of others there and their thoughts on the wine itself. They saved the labels of wines they thought were really good and might look to purchase again. Not just as a keepsake from a "date". A wine label to me, isn't like buying a souvenir to remind you of a trip or place or experience (like a concert or something).

Just noticed my DVR is recording Season 2 of the Traitors on Bravo today. It didn't have S2E1 and it doesn't look like it will nave S2E12. Sneaky how they do that. I did a search and no other airings of the show have come up to catch E1 or E12. The only way I could watch them is to pay peacock or something. I get what they're doing. It's shady as hell trying to force people to subscribe or buy. First season, I remember they aired the first 3 episodes on cable, then went to streaming and months later aired the whole thing on cable.

S11.E11: My Big Fat Dental Adventure

She is disrespectful and rude to the entire world. She perpetuates that stereotype that morbidly obese people are loud and obnoxious, rude and inconsiderate. -
I've never drank anything like that before. So what was wrong about the way he was pouring it? It goes in the funnel, down the hose, into the person's mouth?

I thought I heard him pronounce that as "circus ole" too. Friend's daughter about 12 years old wanted to watch "circus ole" on TV. We teased her after she found out watching the show it was Cirque du Soleil. We did that little Carman Miranda dance move with where you pretend you have castanets in your hands and say "circus ole"!

S15.E04: Paddlesmash; FairyTail; Monosuit, Beuna Papa

I know a lot of people have their wedding party or family/friends take care of their pet for the weddding. I wouldn't have been able to have my dogs in my wedding. Whenever I would be out with my dogs, my focus was on them and keeping them safe. So it would be too much of a distraction. I took my dogs everywhere with me if it was dog friendly or if they would get something out of the outing, dependent on weather of course. Otherwise I left them at home where they would be safe. If Sharks started sticking with their dietary restrictions and being vocal about it, might give entrepreneurs something to think about before they try out for the show. If they know that a majority of the sharks have restrictions, their chances of getting a deal would be slim. -
Keeping your name/brand out there in the public eye is important to celebrities. About 20 years ago, there was a kind of game you could play on the Internet that used Celebrities "Q scores". I didn't play it and I couldn't find anything about it now. You would choose your fantasy team of celebrities and then if you had the highest total Q scores you would win. Q scores measure a celebrities "clout" or importance, popularity, etc.

I did some Googling the other day to see what they may be paid for this show. I found some article that said $100000-$500000 to appar on the show depending on their celebrity status. It was only that one article so I don't know the validity of that claim. But any time I see celebrities on competition shows or game shows or whatnot, I'm betting they're just trying to get some quick $$$ and some public exposure to keep themselves relevant.

I tried watching some more tonight. I noticed that one of the brides had janky blue fingernails with some nails missing when they were showing her intro scenes. Interspersed with scenes from her telling friends, she had perfectly sculpted white nails and so did at least one of her friends. I wouldn't think white nails were a thing unless for a wedding so that makes the timeline of when these things are filmed a bit sus. Like why would he have her nails done in white as if for a wedding 2 weeks before the wedding when she's telling friends? Seems like it's all staged and rehearsed and out of timeline.

I think every reality show adopts a formula for their contestants after a couple of successful seasons. Here they'll have the the bitchy one, the blonde, the doormat, the macho man, the I'm a lot, the eccentric, etc. It's their "formula" for picking people to be on the show. After a while every season of reality series seems like a repeat of previous seasons with slight differences. I tried to watch again tonight from the start. I didn't make it much farther in. Blonde chick in the olive green nipple shirt with her vocal fry and up-speak (which her friends had as well), did me in. I couldn't even listen.

I'm 14 minutes in and it isn't holding my attention. I'll try to watch it over the weekend. The beginning was so odd, just randomly showing "stood up guy" getting stood up with no real intro to the show or anything. I don't even remember if we heard a voiceover at the beginning of Pasto Cal's "for the first time in MAFS history...." Just so randomly odd.

I didn't want to post in the episode thread but I was looking at tonight..... 3 hours and 6 minutes of show -"10 singles married at first sight blah blah". So I wondered what was on for next week 2 hours and 35 minutes - "With one pair having already exchanged vows......the other 8 singles make the final preparations for their own mile high matrimonies....." So 3 hours and 6 effing minutes of show coming on tonight and only 1 couple gets married. Lord help us all. I wish I could watch the episode at double speed like I do when I watch youtube videos.

I agree with you on the kids. I really wonder if the kids really "invented" whatever they're pitching or if they're just trying to use the kids for the cute/age factor to pull at someone's heart strings. (not mine) For the dating service person, wasn't there another contestant this season that was just 1 person company. One of the sharks made a comment about what happens to the company if he gets hit by a bus? Same thing here, she's the main and only thing in this business. What happens if something happens to her or she gets bored with it?
