FBoy Island - General Discussion

So, NeenerNeener, I missed the show due to a family party. (I have the same problem as you.  I couldn't exactly say, "Fam, great party but I'm going to go home and watch FBoy Island!"😏) So, who ended up with whom?

Katie picked Vince and they're splitting the money, Hali picked Mercedes and they're splitting the money, and Daniella picked Christian to the shock and surprise of the whole world. Before the ceremony the FBoys had to lock in their answers on what they would do with the money if picked. Jared was the only one who was taking the whole 100k if Daniella picked him. Daniella aimed a lot of f-bombs at him when he announced that, and his excuse was the title for this episode "I was just playing the game".

Despite her gratitude for the experience, Katie confirmed that she and Vince are no longer dating.

“That’s what everyone wants to know,” she said in an Instagram Story Q&A on Saturday, December 9. “No. That being said, if I’m ever asked to go on reality TV to date again, please just cancel me. Three times and [it] doesn’t work out? Maybe reality TV isn’t where your husband is, just a thought.”

Does anyone know if the other two couples have broken up yet?

Wow. I didn’t see any of those endings coming! I thought for sure Daniella was picking Jarod. But I was very happy for her that she picked Christian. Obviously we knew Hali was picking Mercedes—but I thought he was going to keep the money. And I was shocked that not only did Katie not choose Benedict, but she’s in love with Vince?! Seeing Benedict get all upset over it was really surprising, too. I thought he was being genuine with Katie in terms of deep down being “nice” and would split the money, but I didn’t see a happily ever after with them. Out of all of them, I could kind of picture Christian and Daniella having a family together, but is she going to settle down in whatever town he teaches in?

It's hard to tell just from googling, but it looks like both of the other couples went to Splitsville too. Daniella and Christian don't follow each on IG and Hali posted a message to Mercedes on IG about not trying for a third visit to FBoy Island.

The female version just started on CW.  They are calling it Lovers & Liars.  Did the CW not like the Fboy/Fgirl name?  They are using 3 guys from Fboy Island as the main guys for this season.  

[NeenerNeener]

Yes, I just saw a commercial for L & L with our favorite baby-faced assassin as one of the three guys. i thought he went back to his steady girlfriend after each iteration of FBoy. There doesn't seem to be a forum for it here yet and I haven't watched any of the episodes.

[HerkyJerky]

Victoria (the nursing student that was booted tonight) reminds me of that classic Seinfeld episode about the woman he dated that in one light was GORGEOUS but in another light was a TROLL!😆

[NeenerNeener]

Didn't they make a forum for L&L last week? I can't find it now. Anyway, I'm surprised that three self-professed FBoys aren't better at spotting which ones are FGirls. If they were serious about dating any of these women they might pay a little more attention to personalities, but since this is all for grins and giggles and a shot at some money what matters to them is all physical.

[NeenerNeener]

Just as we get to the end of the road on Lovers and Liars the CW has pulled it from the Thursday night schedule. I hope they put the remaining episodes on the show's web site so I can see how it ended. This doesn't bode well for future seasons of either version of the franchise though. I'll miss it; this was my favorite of all the cheesy dating shows.

Oh, no! I need to see whether Benedict is stupid enough to still trust Jan Danielle, even knowing she’s an F-girl, and how the heck Casey is going to get himself screwed over by Camille even though she’s allegedly a nice girl. And CJ is also someone who exists, but I’m not emotionally vested in his journey—other than being shocked that India is a stealth F-girl! 

I think the CW really made a mistake changing the name of the show. Why would you take something that was popular on another network with the added built-in draw of recurring fan favorite cast members but then “hide” it by changing the name? I would have never known to look for it on that network under that new name if I hadn’t read about it here. If they were suddenly clutching their pearls over the “F” name (despite using it throughout the show, which was obviously filmed as FGirl Island), come on, I watched Riverdale—there’s no need to suddenly act all puritanical.

The final three episodes are up on The CW web site and app. 

I'm afraid them pulling this off the air means it's going to be canceled, just like it was from HBO. I'd be ok with it being strictly a streaming show, like The Traitors on Peacock, but some other streaming service has to pick it up.

Does anyone know how long the couples lasted after lovers and liars? I can’t find anything.

Thanks 🙏

I’m really shocked that Jan Danielle didn’t take the money, let alone date Benedict for 10 months! I was also surprised hear CJ and Kiara are still together. I knew he would pick her, but I guess I didn’t necessarily think he was “there for the right reasons” (TM The Bachelor). Casey didn’t give too much detail on whether he and Hannah even tried to give it a shot or how soon “distance” became a problem. But considering he almost switched to Michi mid-ceremony and would probably have switched to Camille had they crossed paths in the airport, I was expecting him to not make it past filming wrapping. The other two having successful relationships was much more shocking to me.

Of all the women CJ dated, I don't know if Kiara had the best personality but she DEFINITELY had the best body! OMFG!🤩
