Thanks to some of you MN-ers, I found MAFS Australia on shvideos and have been watching season 8 as they are uploaded. Anyone else?

No one I know watches it and I need to talk about it!!!! GrinGrin

Can you post the link pleaseeeee. I watched all the other seasons but can't find the link for this one!!

I started watching but think I had maxed out on MAFS so only saw a few. Going to wait until it airs in the UK (meant to be summer) so I can play along with the mn gang.

Oh I love you for the link.

Watched previous ones. Definitely a guilty pleasure ❤

onlymyselftoanswerto1 · 16/04/2021 19:00

Thank you so much! Think I know what I'm doing this weekend 😁still in lockdown in NI so this will be great!

Happy to chat about what's going on!

RozHuntleysStump · 16/04/2021 19:01

I’ve been watching it. Love it.

Truelymadlydeeplysomeonesmum · 16/04/2021 19:03

Only managed to watch half of the first episode so far.

They have replaced one of the experts with a sexologist! This is obviously going to be an interesting series.

MeridasMum · 17/04/2021 20:59

I wish I was starting watching it with all of you! I'm waiting for the finale to air tomorrow. Can't wait!

I already dislike a few of the men and I'm only on episode 4!

Truelymadlydeeplysomeonesmum · 18/04/2021 21:20

I am on episode 5 now.

The covid weddings with no or few guests that some of them have had a have surprised me. We keep hearing how Australians are living life normally and all that.

I agree some of the men are iffy. On previous series it has been the same. Like Australian women are willing to put up with much more neanderthal behaviour than here in the UK. That or they pick totally prats for these shows Grin

I'm on episode 7 now. I think some of the tasks they are being given are downright cruel and borderline abusive. Why give Bryce a second chance to kick Melissa when she was already down? I have a strong dislike for him!

MeridasMum · 21/04/2021 10:09

It only gets worse!

I have been disappointed in the show on the last couple of seasons. There's no duty of care or responsibility to more vulnerable contestants.

Yes, I know, I still watch it, hoping that the perpetrators get their cummupance!

Agree about the duty of care in last couple of seasons. Been bad since Davina and co.

Bryce is such a piece of work isn't he. The pairing is just putting a abusive. Very hard to watch. She will cling on to him no matter what too.

I love the exercise were the bloke with glasses stares into his poor partners eyes. He is hilarious I would love to be paired with him. The bike getting wheeled through the apartment every morning. The fussy eating and body language. What a interesting character. Most the Australian men on this show are to self aware for me.

onlymyselftoanswerto1 · 22/04/2021 09:29

Sam is pretty vile too tbh. Coco is growing in me, and I think she took a lot of negging before she blew up at him. And the "apology" was far from an apology.

Russell is so funny, he's just so backwards and appears to have led a ridiculously sheltered existence with his dirt bikes and bbq 🤣

I also agree the duty of care is not there at all tho and I feel so uncomfortable at times. I fear this may be the last season I get invested in...

onlymyselftoanswerto1 · 22/04/2021 09:29

*growing on me

Truelymadlydeeplysomeonesmum · 22/04/2021 17:06

Coco grew on me too but that didn't last. You will see.

Truelymadlydeeplysomeonesmum · 22/04/2021 17:09

I have started fast forwarding through the bots with Bryce and Melissa. Too painful to watch
