I think this is the best season of Married at First Sight!
Love the weddings. I had a smile from ear to ear last night and couldn't believe the huge cliffhanger they left us on!
Christina is probably going to be the most problematic of this season. Did you see her bridesmaid roll her eyes at her in the promo for next week?
Also, I was thinking Brett was going to be a total douche, but I think his behavior is majorly influenced by his brothers. Hopefully Olivia will be the balance he needs to not be so awkward and sarcastic.
Yes wasn't she also the one who was annoyed at the bachelorette party? She looks like she's going to be annoying as hell and from what I can remember her match seems cool.
I was confused about the editing with Brett and what's her name. Because after they were married and talking, didn't it make it seem like Brett was annoyed with her because she was talking a lot...but then they cut to his interview and he said she's great. Maybe I was the only one that thought though.
I thought before they used to have a teaser preview of the season but I haven't seen that so far. I wonder what drama is going to happen.
I don't have tv, so I swear before you couldn't watch Lifetime live on the app previously, but they must've changed that because I was able to watch it live last night!
Yes! She was the one that was annoyed at the bachelorette party. Her DH seems nice and chill. She seems like a high-maintenance stick in the mud. We shall see how this all plays out.
i thought Brett was into Olivia but he’s an awkward guy and probably isn’t the best at expressing himself. I think these two will be a good match.

I think Amelia is too try hard. Those veils, the unicycle that she clearly couldn't drive, thre bird nest. It's a ploy to get camera time. Boring couples are ignored. But I'm still reserving judgment.
How do you think they know each other? Maybe she dated his friend?
90DF The Other Way: I'm not getting the MUD vibes from Brittany and Azan. And I'm usually the first to call MUD. I need to go Google to see what the scoop is. His parents did seem like they were being genuine in their anger.
MAFS: I don't get try-hard vibes from Amelia. I think her friends were the ones that went all out on the "quirky-ness" factor and were doing it for their friend that they love. The friends seemed non-quirky while wedding dress shopping and I think they went all out for the wedding to cheer on and support their friend. Now, I think Bennett's eccentricities are 1,000% genuine. His mom is definitely a different brand of eccentric.
RHOBH: I'm #TeamDenise. I can't stand Brandi and I think she's very much embellishing a story. Not saying she's completely lying, just blowing it up unnecessarily. And of course, Kyle and Teddi are eating it up.
RHONY: I'm tired of "Sonya is going through something". That's her storyline every season. Her speech at Wharton was cringy. Did y'all get the sense that Mario is soooo over Ramona??? LMAO! Loved Leah calling out Ramona's friends as MAGA fools.

You think that a woman who poses half naked on SM for money and is a rapper actually wants to marry and live with a Muslim man in a very conservative, Muslim country? There is no way she did this for anything but money/fame.

I guess my only confusion about the MUD thing, hadn't she visited him in Jordan before the show started? Like a year or so ago and they showed pictures of it. Or people who think it's MUD think that is a lie as well?
I of course think that the producers help move a dramatic story line along, but it seems like they have pictures of their relationship before the show started. Also, it doesn't seem like the his mom and dad would go along with everything being a made up relationship. Definitely not the mom since she didn't even want to be on camera.

Jordan itself isn't all that conservative. Nothing she did was remotely illegal. I live in arguably a more restrictive country, though not in middle east, and I can go to bars and buy booze. I can have one night stands. I've been offered admittedly illegal drugs. Wearing a bikini is nbd. It's was a bigger deal in the border Buddhist country. About the only thing I cannot do is convince a Muslim to be non Muslim, a crime for which I could go to jail and be deported
It's yazan family that is extremely conservative. It's an imperfect analogy, but it's kind of like saying Americans act like the duggars sp America is that conservative.
I do think she's in it for her "career." And that his family previously treated her nicely until no immediate marriage and son production... You don't scream at a potential daughter in law she's a whore. You don't get that mad someone is so confused when they don't speak your language or if they say no. Also it appears yazan has incorrectly represented both sides.
So she really has no business being with him and his family but the country is fine.

Exactly. When I was living overseas I hoped to make it to Jordan but I never did. Obviously different than the US, but did seems like his family is very conservative. So much drama!

basilosaurus with MAFS Australia with Connie and Jonathan...all of it was stirred up because of a thumbs up emoji she made? How was Jonathan supposed to know that was sarcastic? I think she’s being pretty impossible.

Connie is playing the role (they're almost all incredibly fake) of the mousy shy one. In reality she's a stylist trying to increase her following. And apparently she was the one who made KC cry, not Michael.

Ok this sort of just sort of solidified my distaste for the show. I can’t get into it because it seems so fake.

How creepy is it that BFE Utah has a Samoa gift shop? I hate that Mormons (or any religion really) infiltrate another culture to force religion on them?
I read an article yesterday saying Bravo is highly considering getting rid of Sonja, Dorinda and Ramona! Whyyyy.
RHONY is the only housewives I still watch religiously because the cast is so good.
I'm guessing something to do with Sonia's for sure and possibly dorinda drinking. Romana is just stale imo. What are her storylines? Of the 3 I'd keep dorinda even though she can be a nasty drunk. When she's sobering she's hilarious

I think I must’ve missed that on the show, but I think Utah has a large (compared to other states) Samoan population. It’s what happens when people immigrate here, they’re suggested to live places with their community. It’s like why MN has a large Ethiopian population.

Right, but their immigration is tied to Mormonism.
Mormons went to the Pacific islands to recruit members for LDS. Once converted they immigrated to Utah.

Google said it started in Tahiti in 1844. Now Samoa is 15% Mormon.
I just find this recruitment for religion really creepy and predatory.

Oh! I get what you’re saying! Yes I believe there are a lot of Mormons in the pacific islands because Mormons went there in the 1800s or something like that. White people being white like usual!

I feel like if anyone was going to get the boot for their drinking, it should have been Luann when she was arrested. Luann is the one I vote off the island.
Also, Twitter is fun live Tweeting, but I find it gross they shamed Colt for his body.
I 100% agree. I mean, sure, his tits are easily twice mine, but he seems fine with his body, so who cares? I find the more everyone is exposed, not just the "right" bodies, the less everyone thinks about their own insecurities. I enjoy nudist resorts for that reason
Ok I've only ever been to one but went many times. A core group of people all ages and sizes just to swim and chat (and drink) for the day.

True, but luann is a master at publicity. The arrest was a one time event that gave them great footage. So did the falling in the bushes in Mexico. And she got to talk about jail and court and rehab and ther fucking baloney sandwich with mustard. From a story side it's interesting.
Drunk sonja is just embarrassing at this point. It's every gathering. When it's was drunk on vacation hooking up with pirates and skinny dipping it was funny.

90DF: I can't stand Coltee, Debee, and Jessee. I actually think Jess was extremely disrespectful to Deb and it was really telling that the other family members were quiet. Jess is probably my least favorite cast member this season. That includes awful Angela and Andreiiiii.
Shahs: This isn't a show that I watch regularly. Those of you that watch, are y'all #TeamReza or #TeamMJ? I realize their history and friendship is nuanced, but I'm trying to figure out who was "wronged" the most in this last season.
Love After Lock-up: Anyone watching this hot mess? Looks like it's going to be another great season.

Oh yes, jess was rude. Deb was actually respectfully restrained. She ate a chicken heart and kept her comments to herself. She didn't slam the table screaming I'm done! She respected the parents as hosts and removed herself before she lost her cool. Jekylldeb.
Jess, when called on her rudeness, said, shrug, let's talk about sex. Ugh. We get it. You're a hornball. Now go away.
I didn't watch pillow after realizing family chantal was on and Tim and Robert weren't.

Yes, I watch Love After Lock It. What's with these people actively seeking people in prison to talk to?

I HATE the Family Chantel. I hate that TLC is trying to make them happen, and it seems Twitter agrees.

My husband hates these shows but last night myself, DD and the " I hate these shows bro" watched literally on the edge of the bed. Next week will be amazing.
And, I have to say Debbie was quite respectful and I give them mad props for trying a food that would never eat and did.
