Let's get started! Please no spoilers

I don't understand how they pick the people as individuals and then do the whole 'matching' rubbish. Surely if it was serious, they'd pick couples they thought were well matched and cast like that. Stupid programme. The young couple who aren't even that young are annoying. Love the first couple. Hate Harrison and the thing with Bronte is probably all that lip licking stuff that a few of them with puffed up lips do. There seem to be a lot of fake boobs in Aus. No idea why. Maybe all the swimsuits and hot weather?

I think like all 'human' shows (Big Brother etc) they start off with normal everyday types who genuinely want to make whatever experiment it is work, and slowly end up 1. Making it more 'interesting' by adding in stupid challenges or scripted scenes (the brothers) and 2. Applicants start to be people who are either BIG PERSONALITIES or want a launchpad for something else

Do any of you watch Neighbours? Bronte looks very like Bea from Neighbours

Jesse shushing her isn't necessarily a terrible thing, as it sounds like they were laughing at the time, and he probably misread the room a bit. I don't think (from what we've seen) that it was meant with malice or putting her in her place etc

I quite like him, and don't really see what many of you are hating.
My DH was VERY loud at times when we were dating, and a few times i was genuinely mortified for both of us and definitely shushed him At times

I agree. It's interesting him going in there thinking he was the wacky one. When actually he is self-aware and potentially quite considered. Claire on the face of it seemed happy go lucky etc but I sense her loudness is making up for a lack of personality. It's exhausting to watch her.

Twonewcats · 09/03/2023 13:05

I totally understand Janelle (?) going on and on about his career etc.
If I was wealthy/successful (which she clearly is), and went on MAFS, if my new husband said he's started up a competition page and hopes it'll take off and he hopes he'll do a podcast etc etc, that would be a huge issue for me too. Surely he can understand that he's not really explaining his job well 🤔

Pineappleredwine · 09/03/2023 13:16

Maybe he’s actually very rich and is trying to disguise it. Is Janelle the new Ines?

Prinnny · 09/03/2023 14:02

I love Lyndell and Cam and Olly and Tan. They are so cute! I also really liked sandy and her fella too. Jesse is too much, his girl seems lovely and no one should be shushed by a man! I think the Harrison Brontë drama is a set up, and the money row between Janelle and her man seemed rather orchestrated too, a big build up over nothing then all happiness again, but maybe that’s just the cynic in me 😂

Jessie, is a pound land Russell Brand,

what’s the bet they match country boy Cameron with a shopping/ cocktail loving city girl and think it’s a great match! The joys of MAFS

OMG I'm dying at your comment hahahaha!

Too many blonde women!

Even the Aussie-Singaporean is blonde!

Igotmylipstickon · 09/03/2023 16:37

Harrison seriously reminds me of Thumbface from a previous series :)

Regarding the applicants, I wonder if PoundlandBrand was in fact recruited by the tv people. It wouldn't be the first time.

Villagetoraiseachild · 09/03/2023 16:49

@Appalonia you made me chortle out loud re Tony's love child!
I do find Ollie and Tahnee endearing tho and glad they got a decent honeymoon on the beach in Fiji.

As for Janelle and family, sheesh! I thought the bruvvers were going to either search Adam's wallet or demand a recent bank statement.
Financial security is evidently very important to them.

Looking forward to tonight.

JaneJeffer · 09/03/2023 17:15

Didn't realise it was on. Need to catch up.

dapsnotplimsolls · 09/03/2023 17:38

One of Janelle's brothers should be worrying more about his shite hair.

BatshitCrazyWoman · 09/03/2023 19:31

Catching up from last night. Not a fan of Janelle so far. Not keen on her interfering brothers, either. Can't see this marriage working, and I don't blame him for being pissed off.

(And she's an 'influencer' aka a grifter)

Villagetoraiseachild · 09/03/2023 19:43

Ai ai, the sock drought continues....
How sweaty do those feet get?!

SUBisYodrethwhenLarping · 09/03/2023 19:43

Why don't any of the men wear socks?

SUBisYodrethwhenLarping · 09/03/2023 19:44

I know why no socks?

SUBisYodrethwhenLarping · 09/03/2023 19:46

Pretty venue today though

Villagetoraiseachild · 09/03/2023 19:59

Duncan will have socks on...
He's a bit James Bond.....

YellowAndGreenToBeSeen · 09/03/2023 20:00

I reckon these 2 are the Love Story.

burnoutbabe · 09/03/2023 20:03

Didn't he says a kid was a deal breaker? And she has a child!

Villagetoraiseachild · 09/03/2023 20:05

He really wants kids, is what I heard.....

YellowAndGreenToBeSeen · 09/03/2023 20:21

Yeah, he said he wants them.

SUBisYodrethwhenLarping · 09/03/2023 20:22

Arrrrrrragghhh · 09/03/2023 20:34
