Because a certain mod who shall remain nameless (ok fine, me LOL) screwed something up and ended up merging the 1/5 episode thread into the 1/5 afterparty thread & had to recreate.  Crap, you had

This show would have my love and devotion if they didn't string it out to such ridiculous lengths.  There are many, many, many wasted hours where no progress at all is made by any of the couples.

Why can't Mark put his mom in a wheelchair to have her attend the ceremony? He said he didn't want her to feel embarrassed, but I wondered if he was speaking for himself.

It sounded to me like her disabilities are more mental and emotional than physical? For some reason, I also had a feeling she might have an alcohol problem though I don't know why I thought that. It sounded to me like his mother agreed that she couldn't handle being there even thought she would want to be if her health wasn't so precarious.

Lindsey's family doesn't seem to like her; I hope she's not one of those people who run roughshod over other people's feelings in the name of "being honest."

Also: I hope Isaac was clear with the show about his priorities. Ask Bao if cooking "gourmet meals" can save a marriage. Then again, the experts ignored Myrla's preferences to create drama, so I'm pretty sure this issue is going to come up again.

Olejuwan (sp)? Already has one strike against him, wants a wife who cooks and if she doesn’t know how then she isn’t a wife. Oh boy, I already know this marriage won’t work out and they haven’t shown the lucky woman who gets him yet.

Olajuwon told the experts he would like a home cooked meal when he came home; he didn't say it like he did to his family, that it was a deal breaker. Katina does cook, but she likes to go out to eat & film it for her social media, too.

I didn’t understand that either. I have disabled family members; they come to events. His mother sounded lucid on the phone.

Noi is a woman who wants stability and who has had boyfriends who, I assume, paid for her travel with them, and they paired her with a man with no job. I don’t judge him for being laid off. I’ve been laid off. Anybody can lose a job. And I’d guess he made good money as a software engineer so he probably has savings that funded his road trip. But how long is he going to be unemployed? I can’t imagine applying for a show to get married with no job.

ETA:  I'm so hardened and cynical after 14 seasons of this show, I don't even know why I asked the question, lol.

Did Cal just say they're only showing ONE wedding tonight? Ugh.

Mark sounds so sweet! I hope Lindsey likes him 🤞

Mark's a big walking red flag to me. cynical me.  He was all in for being "married at first sight" four years ago and now he's thrilled to get a second chance at being one of the Boston grooms.   You've been in the marrying mood for four years, Mark?  Were you in suspended animation while you waited for the team to come back and marry you to a stranger?  Something wrong with this picture.

 

Lindsey's story seems more realistic--"I was dumped five days from the altar.  Not going through that again.  Hook me up. show."

I liked the first dress Lindsay tried on. I thought it was tasteful, pretty and flattered her figure.

Quote

Lindsay just won the asshole award from me, saying she would kick a small dog. Really? 

I didn't hear it that way. She said she would "Bigfoot a small dog" which I took to mean that she was clumsy and would be constantly tripping over it.

Yeah - Mark. Go with the OG black tux. I liked the navy one too but not with the yellow tie.

I started late and I'm off the timeline everyone else is on, but I just have to say:

Stevie, if I met you at the altar on our wedding day, I would indeed like you to say you had a job.

 

ETA:  Now that I've seen the segment about Noi, I rescind my observation about Stevie's job, or lack thereof.  Noi seems like a person who wouldn't necessarily faint if her stranger danger husband isn't a nine-to-fiver.   Fingers crossed for these two.

Odds on Mark the Shark having given himself that nickname? (I can't get over his terrifying crazy blue eyes.)

There was the relationship coach from Australia on 90 Day Fiance that had those eyes and viewers said he needed to check his thyroid. He did and it was an issue that he addressed. I wouldn't have known but he thanked the viewers for giving him the heads up on one of the follow-up shows.

Jasmina's mom looks like her older sister. 

Is she the stepmom because bio mom walked out on her toddler daughters?

Michael wears that maroon tux well!

I don't love Jasmina's whole dress but the sleeves are beautiful and I think she is gorgeous. She could wear a sack and would look great.

Ok, my bad, I took it as Bigfoot meant kicking or stepping on a little dog. 
Why are there half naked dancers at the mens party and the women have drag queens? Where are the sexy male dancers?

Oh dear.  The #4 man appears to be unfamiliar with the word and the concept of "compromise."  And all those sisters doting on him?  Yikes.  Run, #4 woman!

 

The #5 man sounds like he's put in quite of bit of time in self-assessment.  He knows he puts too much stock in a woman's looks.  He appreciates the camaraderie element of a relationship.  It's sweet that he speaks wistfully of wanting someone "at the top of his contact list" to share all the good stuff.

 

#5 woman.  Yeowch, the vocal fry.  : (

I wish Lindsey-with-an-e could have had someone better than Mark the Shark.  I like her.  And him, not so much.

 

But it's possible I'll be eating those words by Episode Three.

ETA:  Uh oh.  If she keeps going on about penis size, it'll be a lot sooner than Episode Three.

So, I guess Lyndsey is this season's Virginia based on how much she seems to like to get plastered. Unless it's just a producer edit.

Jasmina stated she can't wait to cook for her husband. Hmmm, perhaps they should've matched her up with Olajuwon instead of Katina?

Speaking of Katina, her demeanor is enormously different from Olajuwon! He's an outgoing, life of the party type of guy (also, he doesn't appear to be ready for a monogamous relationship nor a marriage, either). He stated he wants to take his wife to the strip club & have her slap strippers on their behinds. Meanwhile, Katina said she doesn't use sex toys and isn't freaky AT ALL! Katina (also Alyssa) seems like the type of woman that is either a drill sergeant during sex (move to the left, now stop right there, don't move) or she's the quiet type that acts really shy, only wants to have sex with the lights off and/or is not sexually adventurous & prefers to have sex in the missionary position where the man does all the work. Just some observations that I made based on her behavior & what she's said so far this episode. I'm hoping I'm wrong because Ex-Playboy Olajuwon will be turned all the way off if any of what I suspect is true about her & he'll be ready to run for the hills in 0-60 seconds.

Lyndsey must've had a lot of guys in the past with small penises because nearly every segment she's in tonight, she keeps repeating that it's something she doesn't want her new husband to have.
