Read me before posting in 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way.

 

[greekmom]

Premiering June 3 at 9 p.m. EST (with an early sneak peek available on TLC GO beginning May 27), the explosive new show follows six Americans who are uprooting their lives and moving abroad to live with their significant others.

Is it too early to start popping corn?  Can. Not. Wait.

[Kangatush]

I will so enjoy this new garbage fire.  I'm having fun trying to guess who the worst couple will be.

You think Nicole is going to give up on Her World so easily? He’ll have to fake his death to escape her. And even  that may not work. 

[Persnickety1]

I caught the early one-hour preview of this last night.

It was a glorious shitshow.  

I can't wait for the full 2-hour official premiere.  

[Neurochick]

I caught this on the TLC website.  Wow, just wow.  This is worse than any of the 90 Day Fiance shows, even worse than Mohammad and Danielle.

[Boofish]

I went purchased a wig just so I could snatch it off .. is Grandma serious? Jenny .. Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny. I can't even make fun of her because I have no idea what it feels like to be that desperate, lonely and needing love. Did she honestly think the guy in the first set of pictures was in love with her OY .. Jenny .. Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny. In the words of my 3 year old niece until she was taught the hard way that only I thought it was funny "WHEELY BISH - WHEELY" 😂

[LeeluDallas]

This feels even more scripted/staged than usual... blimey it’s not going to be  full of smart choices and real love lol but that’s why we watch right? 

[LeeluDallas]

Oh and when I hear women claiming they didn’t know they were pregnant...ohhh please ffs! You never ever get a full period...maybe some spotting but if you can’t tell that your body is changing within 2 months then you were choosing to stay in denial...if you’re overweight that’s no excuse to say you had no idea! 

[LeeluDallas]

Omg the Mormon boy and the Ecuadorian woman.....huuuge red flags..they aren’t even married yet and he’s already spent his life savings😱

[BengalKitty]

Mormon and Evelin.  I did like that she had no interest in his religion and said straight up to his parents she was told it was a cult.  Way to impress the in laws LOL.  I get the feeling she could care less if he followed her to Ecuador. 

Oh, Jenny.  So not going to end well.  She reminds me a lot of the southern woman who went to Africa (?) With all the Trump stuff for her boytoy.  I see the same scenario.

I don't know if this is staged at all.  A while ago, I watched an episode of an Australian talk show on YouTube.  The subject was love scams and I was surprised to see so many seemingly intelligent people who had no problem with giving their life savings to a person they never even met in real life.  

I don't get any of theses people:  The woman (can't remember names) who wants to be with the man who catfished her; the woman who's moving to South Africa to be with a man who has a gambling addiction and has a record, he can't come to the US because of it; and then the Mormon with the woman from Ecuador.  These people, all they need to do is go somewhere, see the rest of the country.  Don't go to extremes and want to move to another country and marry a person you don't know.

Oh yeah I totally understand that their are naive/delusional people out there totally willing to put themselves in risky situations; usually BC of love or money. However, the dialogue and forced reactions and at times obvious smirks when trying to be serious, threw up red flags for me. It’s obvious the reshoots/timing of shots/ scene set ups are a little forced. I’ve been on a one off reality documentary style tv show and I can attest that it’s not all filmed naturally. This show just feels more produced than the previous spinoffs but that could be down to the production team🤷‍♀️

[CrazyInAlabama]

This one lost me at the South African demanding his girlfriend has to move to SA, and that would be a deal breaker for me.    Does that woman have any clue about the crime rate there, and she's moving to be with someone who can't even come in the U.S.?    I hope that everyone going overseas on this show has a clue that if something goes wrong, the U.S. government can't help them.    It will be up to their relatives to help them, and that may not be possible either.

TLC just sent over tonight's "This Season On" preview, which we've posted here:

Evelin is one smart cookie!  She’s already made $40k from the Mormon guy!

[RichiesOlderBro]

Pole’s lawyer wants him out of the US LOL!

[TigerLily20]

And love the puzzled looks on his friends faces...

[RichiesOlderBro]

Wow - Mormon guy has given Eviline all his money and now she’s leaving. 

I’m going to bet when he shows up in Ecuador she is no where to be found.  

[Julyolo]

How is Ronald not relapsing on gambling when he's taking the biggest gamble of his life: marriage?

[RichiesOlderBro]

Eviline is amazing!  

‘I’m not telling you to move to Ecuador, buuut if you want this relationship, you will have to move.’

And she doesn’t look sad at all about leaving.

[talktoomuch]

Sumit is such a sweetheart. A total idiot. But a sweetheart nonetheless. 

[RichiesOlderBro]

‘I’ve had that opportunity many times’

I think her friends might be a tad bit jealous of Jenny

Paul's mom "No . . . actually I'm sponsoring you right now, and I don't want to sponsor two people".  And then our Pole tries a guilt trip with hissy fit.  Awesome!

[RichiesOlderBro]

Pole isn’t going to Brazil because he can only take 2 bags.   🤷‍♂️

[RichiesOlderBro]

Terrorism charges for Pole!!

This is comedy gold!

[Bunnyette]

Ah another older woman and younger man (Qatar), South Korea looks very interesting and Tiffany should leave South Africa ASAP.

He couldn't have asked his mom to mail the other stuff down and charge it to his ... credit ... card ... Oh, wait. He has no credit left.

It seemed unimaginable to Pole that a 35 year old could make 26k.

Possibly, considering she's planning to marry a major contributor.

[millennium]

I haven't finished watching the entire episode, but the new car smell went away as soon as I saw Pole's stupid face again.

While watching the discussion between Sumit and his friends I found myself expecting humor, like it was a movie or tv comedy.  

Actually I feel bad for Sumit (at least at this point).   It sounds like what he really wants is a life of his own, out from under his family, and is looking at Jenny as a potential means of escape.    I wonder if Jenny's number came up at the call center as 867-5309.

I feel terrible for Jenny, too.   A 62-year-old woman with $9000 to her name.  I think that was the most terrifying thing in this episode -- well, that and the fact that she is leaving her JOB to chase this delusion.   

That Ecuador woman puts the "evel" in "Evelin."  Her eyes are hard as stone.  They make her look 10-15 years older than her physical age.  I'm picturing the pigs in the street fighting over the Mormon's carcass.

Lord, I was born a gamblin' man ... (with apologies to the Allmans).   Is that girl NUTS?  A gambling addict?   I was just reading about David Milch, the creator of Deadwood, and his gambling addiction.   He burned through at least $17 million before he hit bottom.   And this clown from South Africa wants to get married 8 days after leaving the Wellness Center?

Oh.  Hellz. Yeah.  As an Indian woman, I'm going to thoroughly enjoy his shit getting wrecked.  His friends reactions and that he is going to think the community, even far away, isn't going to get word back to his family that he's living with a 1200 year old white lady is HILARIOUS.   

Imma let him pay for "I like white girls".  Us brown girls are ALL relieved.  Trust. I'm so excited about this dumb shit!

Paul and Karine Part 95 - Ugh.  He is such a prick.  Berating his mother for not financing his lifestyle and choices he has made.  Ew. 

Chick and the South African criminal - She actually seems pretty sweet and cool (and her make-up is ON POINT), but is making TERRIBLE decisions.  Ron seems like a trainwreck.  Pls, pls, pls don't move your kid to this mess.  Yes, he is hiding more from you, girl. 

Mormon and Ecuadorian chick - Bruh.  She is taking him on a RIDE.  Some of the nasty things she says offhandedly to him make their relationship really clear.  "You gonna let me go home with no money" with an entitled side eye?  She seems terrible.  But, he's a patsy and deserves exactly what she is gonna put him through.  

This is an auspicious start to a brilliant season. These damn TLC ppl have my ass!!
