Episode 34 just up on southhemitv. Let's just say that Paul is the male version of Jacqui.

Everybody knows there's only one episode viewers want. Get on with it.

I guess Allen is a "TV Star" now. 😄😄😄

🚫Jacqui🚫 is a liar with fake tears who thinks she's a seductress! 🤣😂🤣😂🙄🙄🙄🙄 Don't back down, Ryan (but still don't put shoes on the bed!)!

Maybe because one generation's thinking of the other's "making whoopee" (tm The Newlywed Game) is icky! 🧐🥴🤯🤮👀😅 I already see some incompatibles. One groom won't be sophisticated enough (Derrek). Another probably asked for a light-skinned Latina (Will). A third husband (Chad) said he wouldn't mind a bride near his age, but he lied and actually wanted a younger woman. So sayeth my crystal ball.

Post-Swap: Veronica is nuts. Jamie is a victim. Jacqui is still delusional about her looks, personality, and everything else. "Hotel Jeff"?! Paul is not the Good Guy I had thought he was. Rhi, OTOH, has found a Good Guy.

Awkward as all get-out. And that was before I turned it off so as not to hear any syllable whatsoever from David.

I beg you, mes amis, BLEACH MY EYES! David getting the tattoo = 😵 😱 🤪 ‼️ Actually, I'm stopping with this scene. None of these people interest me in the slightest, unlike several on the Australian version now.

Because it's simulated. I would argue that nakedness is now the route to the Best Actress Oscar. Perhaps 2026 will prove me wrong. As for the Music Biopic, Rami Malek's win in hindsight seems to have made the genre ever after unpopular with the Academy [See: "Elvis"]. I've seen only 3 of the BP nominees. I initially thought "A Complete Unknown" was great, but I've since decided it's only pretty good. "The Apprentice" I would say is great, and highly recommend. As character-driven films, surprisingly the latter is more revelatory and profound than the former. Finally, "Conclave" is interesting as a "Behind the Scenes" type expose', but the ending felt manipulative.

Updating to my list of Loathed, after Episode 21: Jacqui. Delusional about her qualities. Veronica. Total sociopath with zero empathy or sympathy. Elliot reveals his PTSD from his baby sister's being in a coma, and she says she "learned nothing about" him, adding, "Like, what's your favorite color?" !!!!! She ends up faking it on the couch here. John. 53 and NOW says he wants a baby?! GMAFB. 🚫👶 Adrian. Essentially admitted that he's on the show for exposure and publicity. For what purpose, I don't know. John the Expert. Paul's shame, distress, fear, and remorse were so evident and real, IMO, that John's comments became piling on. https://southhemitv.com/2025/03/02/mafs-12-21/

David cannot pronounce the word "you." "Let you" becomes "Letchew." "With you" becomes "Witchew." And the rest of his speech ain't great, either. That is to say, in no way at all can David fit into Madison's ambitions.

The "experts" are like: "Sally wants children, but Tom doesn't. Sally is religious, and Tom promotes atheism. She likes plain food, he has quite the enviable spice collection. Sally wants a man who is financially responsible, but Tom loves to gamble in the local casino. She hates dogs, he has two pitbulls. We think they would make a perfect match because they both like good weather."

"Why does this bother you?" Why does anyone else's opinion bother you? Moreover, "[h]uman emotion" does not ever require human action. Plenty of people in history and fiction attest to the possibility and the power of self-restraint no matter if the "human emotion" is love, anger, pity, or any other feeling. IOW, Madison and David don't get a "the heart wants what it wants (tm Woody Allen)" pass from me.

Michelle: "I hope she likes living in his parents' basement." 🤭
