What would you want to see on Season 2? (Wishing and Speculation Only)

[AdorkableWitch]

I was thinking today about the possibility of new couples and what I would want to see. There are plenty of opportunities for marriages that are more of an arranged marriage than two of the couple on S1.

My Wish List

- A fundamentalist evangelical couple that did the "courting" routine a la the Duggars.

- an arranged marriage where one spouse is from another country.

Any other thoughts?

I think arranged mariages are pretty rare in this country.  Probably the reason two of the three featured were not arranged in the truest sense of the word.  I guess overseas arrangements still occur... but then the problem would be language for the TV produces, probably.

 

Maybe more Romai couples could be found.

It seems like the family members of Christian & Maria....from the counsel session....Archie Mitchel, last name of Yanho....there is nothing on google about any of them so I think all of the names used on the show are not true....and as Roma gypsyies, I get it....it just seems not authentic.

 

 

However, of all of the couples...i'd love to see a Christian/Maria/Nina/Michael spinoff.....they made the show interesting and well, they are great for tv :)

Yeah, without the Roma couple there was no show.   Christian and Maria's second act and maybe a new Roma couple to follow (maybe Christian's brother) would be cool.  No more fake "arranged" marriages were people have been living together or dating for years.

Can everyone be found on Google?  I actually agree with you about everything you said.  The spinoff idea is really appealing to me...but I hope it might be produced more ...well... professionally, without the careless edits and bad acting.

Just caught the end of an ad for Arranged, Season 2, coming May 5 (2nd?). Oooooooooh, must Google and find out more!

ETA:  Wait, is it Season 3? Well, anyway, a new one!

Did you find anything out on Google? I couldn't find anything for a new season when I just looked. From what you caught was it an all new set of couples?

[lazylou]

Looks like new couples, though I think they have introduced only two.  One young couple orthodox Jews, the other I don't know what...

[Evil Queen]

Ok Thanks for that info. Will have to do another search and see if anything pops up. I am glad we are seeing new couples instead of the other 3. Hopefully if there is a 3rd couple it isn't Christian's brother.

FYI's hit series "Arranged," which follows modern American singles whose cultural traditions include an arranged marriage, returns with three new couples for a second season. Eleven hour-long episodes are set to premiere beginning Tuesday, May 10 at 9pm ET/PT.

In season two, viewers will follow three couples from different backgrounds that have one thing in common - the belief in arranged marriages. From a young Jewish modern Orthodox couple in New York City, to a southern couple from Texas, to a couple raised by traditional East Indian parents living in California - each have a unique journey to marriage.

That is what I found on the next season. It starts May 10th. I saw the one couple talking in an quick ad the other night. I wish FYI would give us some more on the couples aside from the above that I found and the quick ad.
