I couldn’t see a new thread so thought I’d make one. Yup another boring one… Anyway looks like Konnor has bagged himself a Lollipop though I’m surprised the candyman didn’t get in there first (ugh). We haven’t had half as many games, the hideaway is perma open and no one’s going in there. No real discussions or code words around how the relationships are going on the chemistry front. What’s going on?

I liked Uma until she starting liking Will
Terrible judge of character.
The problem with Love Island is it's a carbon copy each year with no change in format.
Imo it shouldn't be forced or staged .
Every conversation between couples is shit.
That's the problem.

Aquarius1234 · 20/07/2024 13:50

The reason they don't have any fun is probably because there are constant producers in the background telling them what to do and where to sit, / chat about/ cliche lines to say.

I’m going on holiday on Wednesday to Italy. I’m going to miss the final aren’t I? Am I able to watch it online from abroad?

I have been watching Love Island USA for the first time this year and it is far superior to the shit we have .
Firstly , the casting was better and the cast is better looking( superficial I know) than the UK cast
Secondly the editing is better
Thirdly, they actually have some funny challenges

The UK cast this year is dire

Lilybetsey · 20/07/2024 14:24

Where can you watch LI USA ?

Last year I had a VPN and set my location to the UK and watched on the ITV app.

All that to see Jess and Sammy win. There's an hour of my life I won't get back

I have a vpn.

I watch it the day after it airs in the US on Daily Motion
The final is on Sunday so you may want to avoid watching any spoilers if you decide to watch the series from the beginning

I think Josh isn’t going to be happy when he sees the Mimi playback, but now he’s closed things off maybe he’ll leave it?
Although Mimi did look a bit worried when he mentioned just as long as her actions are aligning with what she’s been saying…
Someone previously mentioned Sean not looking happy that Josh & Mimi have closed things off, maybe he secretly fancies her? I’m not sure he’s into Matilda much.

MooonDreamer · 20/07/2024 18:02

I was literally about to say this then saw this comment @Cherryblossom200

I can't stand the way Mimi says 'choonowhatImean' all the time, speak properly

She says it far too often too

she doesn't sound very bright

I think he's decided he's done with it too, so whatever else comes out, he'll have moved on.

I don't know about Sean liking Mimii. I think they were just all so invested in the Ayo and Mimii show. And Ayo kept telling them how much he still liked Mimii, so they all ran away with themselves.

I actually like Josh, Mimii and Jomii so hope it's all settled now.

I think it's more that he wanted to be right about Mimii and Ayo. He would have been excruciatingly smug if they'd have got back together.

BlackStrayCat · 20/07/2024 19:18

Also competition innit.😁

Whyisthisallhappening · 20/07/2024 22:11

Reuben is the only hot one who’s been in this series, he’s lovely, would’ve loved him with Uma so much.
I agree, Matilda is common, she’s awful, Sean too
Grace is smart and has respect for herself
Jess was so different when she first came in, so much fun, looked different too, not sure the villa has been good for her.
Jesse is really nice, classy, smart and will end up with some wealthy, nice guy within her own circle in the future I reckon.
Ciaran is lovely and the one I would’ve gone for when younger, I think Nicole’s a lovely friend and probably a nice person, but she’s very emotional and needs some help with it.
I liked Joey back in the day, seeing him on this has made me sad, to show it had all been an act
Mimi, I can’t work out, she seems a genuinely good person, but the other night, she didn’t seem with it at all, just all a bit strange.
New girl Lola, pretty and nice but doesn’t really let others speak and doesn’t have much about her 😬
New guy, Harry, just seems like the local chav who is up himself, seems like a boy in comparison to Grace

CarnDûm · 20/07/2024 22:37

I swear every year I see posters saying the same thing about how that year's season is the worst season ever. Next year you will be looking fondly back at this season and complaining about how awful Love Island 2025 is. WinkGrin

Best seasons for me were seasons 2 and 3. It started going gradually downhill from season 4 onwards. However, I really don't think this is the worst season we have had. I found season 7 with Liberty, Faye, Teddy etc too painful to watch and if we are counting Love Island All Stars in this then for me that was the worst Love Island ever. Love Island 2023 as well was forgettable.

Whyisthisallhappening · 20/07/2024 22:56

My favourite was the first one I watched in 2018, heavily pregnant and sweating through summer 😂think it was Molly mae et Al?

2018 was the Dani Dyer season. Molly Mae was Season 5 2019, which actually was a decent season.

As a side note, I was heavily pregnant at the summer of 2018 too! 😂

Whyisthisallhappening · 20/07/2024 23:12

@CarnDûm Ah wow! 😂I remember I went out in summers before so never watched it. That summer I was huge and knackered and got really into it 🤣 I spent many nights balancing a big plate of nachos on my bump and munching away.
The Molly mae year must have been my summer of breastfeeding on the sofa year then

My Dd turned 6 yesterday 😊

I look back on those days with fondness

Queencam · 21/07/2024 09:56

Anyone watch Unseen Bits?

it’s so much better than the regular show! Love the stupid chats and messing about in the pool. The regular show is too engineered

Arconialiving · 21/07/2024 12:00

Just watching it after your recommendation! First time I've watched this season & agree, it's good and great to see some personality from them. Where was Mimii though? She wasn't in any unseen bits other than the stuff that was shown in the main programme?!!

Josh is going to dump Mimi the minute he gets his phone back
He has made it clear that he does not want to look like a fool on national tv..
In his mind, her shenanigans in the villa would have made him look like a fool.

Sweetenuf2 · 21/07/2024 12:11

I agree. Josh might carry on to the end to save face but once he gets out she’s getting dropped. I can’t see them being the next Tasha and Andrew or Dami and Indiyah or whatever. They’ll split up within a few weeks if not days.

I’m also hearing murmurs online that Grace is his type. And I think an islander may have alluded that?

If that’s the truth, it makes me wonder if he was going to stick around that long with her anyway.

BlackStrayCat · 21/07/2024 12:22

2 people have gone apparently, I dont know if that is true. I imagine 2 people will be going every other night now? Or every 3 nights? Or are they all in until the final?

. The reason he liked Grace is because she has made it clear that she finds him attractive .He even alluded to this in one of the challenges when he mentioned that she gave him attention
I don’t think that he has a particular type physically, but he is obviously attracted to Mimi
.Josh’s type is anyone who feeds his big ego, which Grace does

Sweetenuf2 · 21/07/2024 17:36

Tonight’s first look, is looking explosive!

It seems like Ciaran is standing up to Joey- I love that about him. He has his morals and opinions and will be very direct and forthright in stating them no matter who he is talking to, unlike Sean who is more of a Joey follower and only has smoke for certain people, and generally a bit slimy.

Josh seems to be having a go at Joey too for some reason, but not Mimi. I think regardless of what he thinks he’s going to back her while he’s in there which is a smart strategy at this point tbf

and yeah from the preview just as I thought - Sean is still obsessed with Mimi/Josh and Ayo/Jessica 😑He needs to give it a rest!
