Can’t see another thread on this so sorry if I’ve missed it, but I surely can’t be the only sad sack unduly excited that MAFS is back later this month?!

I see a scandal has kicked off before it’s even started due to one of the contestants allegedly being a domestic abuser 😱

Anyone want to join a discussion thread for when the series starts on 16th? 🙌

Is it on every night? It's quite a commitment

More than most of them put into the marriage.

Oh god I feel for Emma, it's not her fault she looks like Caspar's bloody sister! I hope he just puts he out of her misery rather than let her think she's not good enough 😞

Monday to Thursday. We're all bereft on a Friday night!

and that's tonight's episode over already - went far too quickly !

I believe for those asking it's on Mons - Thurs eves ?

I had to look up the meaning of the acronym, had never heard of 'MAFS'. I know what it is now and have seen it on the TV listings but not watched it.

murasaki · 16/09/2024 22:50

Join us. It's tv crack. I held out for years and am now an addict.

dapsnotplimsolls · 16/09/2024 22:50

I love that this thread is trending and luring unsuspecting posters in ... welcome to the Cult of MAFS ...

Caspar's not feeling it
Gonna stick my neck out and say he never will

Agreed. I don't dislike either of them, but he's never going to get past the ways in which she reminds him of his sister and - absent some intensive psychotherapy - that's going to make it impossible.

Dead on arrival. So dead. Absolutely doomed.

I hope they keep trying for a while because Caspar is one of the few who I think isn't going to really annoy me.

dapsnotplimsolls · 16/09/2024 22:52

He's going to have to find endless excuses not to shag her.

Villagetoraiseachild · 16/09/2024 22:56

Am guessing Caspar's sister is the older twin.

He can pull the 'I'm a gentleman and want to get to know you ' card for a while, but she will feel hurt. He's nice, I think, so won't want to hurt her, but is in a really tricky position.

Ah now, there's a respite break between the Oz version and this one.

She'll think it's because she's 'medium-sized' but really ...

dapsnotplimsolls · 16/09/2024 22:59

Was it last year we had BB the re-boot and MAFS on at the same time? That was a challenge.

Oh I hadn't thought of that, sad, and not remotely the reason.

You could see that every time he wanted to take a step back, she would feel like she had to take a step forward to make up for it too. Which only made him want to take another step back. A really bad dynamic there.

I do have to commend the editing during the wedding ceremony showing the uncanny similarity between Emma and her SIL. Really well done.

Yes and BB is starting again soon isn't it?

Just googled, next month I think. I watched MAFS live then caught up on BB the next day. I don't watch any other reality stuff and they had to put the buggers on at the same time!

I was very anti the fake teeth trick. Seemed very unfair. But Kristina didn't seem to mind.

I wonder whether the clown will be too much for the animal reiki healer in the end. I have a suspicion that he will enact an endless series of pranks, jokes and performances as a way to avoid pausing to connect with his true feelings, and this might disappoint Kristina on the end. We will see.

I didn't realise they were streaming it before it had been aired. They are doing the same with Hollyoaks too.
