Love Island - the best worst TV programme ever?

[cheapskatemum]

I'd definitely file this one under guilty pleasures. Please watch it so we can bitch comment on it here. Jon's grasp of English had me howling yesterday.

Zoe is her own worst enemy. I feel for Chris a bit... he is a bit of a dullard though.

Oh, I was out last night and missed it. Realise I confused Rachel and Naomi upthread - how Biblical! Agree about Chris: he hardly gets any airtime at all (bear in mind that I missed his "date" with Zoe). From this I surmise he's boring as, if he was nasty they'd show it because it would make for good tv viewing. Maybe Hannah is pissed off about that because she knows it means she's unlikely to win?

Not Hannah - Zoe! D'oh!

Can't stand John. Thinks he is the big I Am.

I had to turn the tv right down when Jon's parents came on. All that screaming and shouting. I couldn't live with them!

Ugh, John's parents congratulating him on pulling Hannah, as she's a Playboy Bunny! Ughgggh! "You're coming across so well!"
Really? Having sex on TV and being really controlling over Hannah? Hmm, they're coming across really badly to me!

And what the hell was with them telling everyone what they did in bed?

Does anyone know how long this series lasts?

I think at some point we'll all be called up to walk seductively from the pool towards the boys.

So seven years I'd say.

Because of you lot I binge watched this the other day and am now totally addicted !

My favourite is Jordan, he is a total anomaly. Very red though, needs to chill on the suntime

You lot have me addicted too. Jess flirting with Omar has been my favourite moment so far. She is awful. How on earth anyone can still want her there is beyond me.

Caroline Flack refers to "all summer", Spanish, so a good few weeks yet, I'd say. Maybe they've had to keep it vague in case it bombed and they had to pull it? Welcome, prettywg and Camper, the more the merrier

I'm sure I've read or seen 6 weeks bandied about somewhere, so I guess we're 1/3 of the way through.

I'm watching tonight's on delay but just want to say, "why, oh why have all the women been introduced in swimwear & the men in clothes?" Naomi, Daisy & Beth were all introduced at night - why are they in bikinis? Seriously, producers - we all know it's a tacky show but please stop reducing women to just a body on introduction. The men have all worn smart casual, why are the women not allowed to wear the same?
Rant over.

not liking jon and hannah, I used to think they were a good couple but now think she hasn't got enough of a voice

That Max person is the first good looking guy there's been!

The trailer for tonight shows J&H going tits up!

I think Jon is a controlling freak who has crowned himself leader of the pack and they all follow his lead. I can't stand him. I think Hannah will soon realise.

I also think Naomi will ditch Josh. His hair gets on my nerves! Tie it back child!! I feel like I have seen Naomi somewhere before but have no idea where. It's her voice that seems familiar.

That Beth is a bit gobby! She's only saying what everyone is thinking and Jess retaliation madee realise how young they all are!

Jon & Hannah remind me of the East End gangsters of the 50s & their trophy wives. He's so much in control of the house, everyone seems to look to him as the leader. I didn't like how he kept telling Hannah he wanted her "to be mine" - not "my girlfriend", but "mine". Is she just another possession for him? I swing between liking them as a couple and thinking that maybe she should get out now. I don't think he's a bad guy, I just think that he might need to grow up a fair bit. Though I've just remembered that Jon basically said he wanted Jess out cos she kept putting ideas into Hannah's head. Which could just be an innocent personality clash or it could be more sinister - the way a controlling man would try to isolate his lover.

Gosh, Jess really doesn't do herself any favours at all. She was so bitchy when Naomi chose Josh that she pushed them together. And pushed all the other guys (except Omar) away from her. If she had played it a bit cooler I think she would've had her pick of the guys. Plus, Josh would've come crawling back when Naomi dumps him. Then last night Beth laid into her & if Jess hadn't resorted to horrible personal insults, she would've had everyone's support.

In contrast to Jess, Luis was fairly sanguine about Chris B choosing Danielle and now all the girls are trying to get with him. Which annoys me - where's this much-vaunted "girl code"? Jess is happy to throw Lauren or any other girl under the bus just to stay. And every female seems to think Luis is fair game just cos he's with Lauren. Yet his speech when choosing her seemed very affectionate & sincere. I hope they stay together & win it as a friend couple (& that she doesn't develop feeling for him, though I suspect she is).

URGH the kissing.

Chris, bleurgh.

Zoe getting right on my nerves...

The snogging competition was so grubby.

And Jordan is super awkward, make me cringe. He's like a giant stupid walnut.

He is. So not sexy...

Poor Daisy, imagine finding out all the guys have decided you're the worst snogger.

The kissing competition was awful; i can't imagine much worse. Don't blame lauren for volunteering to take the scores. Notice none of the boys (who weren't in couples) didn't choose to sit it out. Omar...bleurgh. Chris...bleurgh. Jordan...bleurgh (and yes to the giant walnut comment! He's like a giant mouth-breathing walnut with a teen tiny brain. Sorry Jordan!).

I don't really understand what's going on with Jon and Hannah nite i think she should be rid of him anyway. She seems like a nice (albeit schreechy!) young woman.

I'm watching this too but too embarrassed in real life to admit it. I could be their mother!! Anyway firstly Hannah..i almost had to switch stations. Her voice is so gravelly and you can tell she bloody smokes a lot. I like Zoe but disgusted if she gets back with that overmuscular posh speaking gobshite. Hopefully she will have some pride in herself and pick that good looking guy max. That girl Naomi is simply stunning and I'm almost jealous of her looks and beauty. I quite fancy Luis.. He's beautiful and I like Chris personality... Now I have to go get a bloody life!!

Horrific. Just when you think they are just a bit thick but harmless they turn into misogynist morons.
Why has no one mentioned it's just a show? They are taking it way too seriously.

jon is a nob I can't stand the bloke anymore
