Love Is Blind USA S8 (Netflix Pace)

[EineReiseDurchDieZeit]

Returns tomorrow.

Hoping to see usual posters but I know many people have gone off the series now due to too many would be influencers and trying to be TV stars.

Netflix Pace simply means that if it's been released on Netflix then talk about it, but if it's a spoiler from social media please don't post on here - thanks !

Oh yes. Amber and Barnett were a fab couple!

I love Amber and her refusal to be a Cool Wife. Even 2 years later Barnett wouldn’t speak to Jessica 🤣

I don't think the first series has been bettered either. Didn't last time have :

Sleep Clinic Guy
Guy with the plait and dubious attitude to contraception
Guy with 3 children to a lesbian friend repeatedly lying about it

Was that all the same series?

Yes!

I also liked the series with Chelsea and Jimmy (I still maintain he was the arsehole and she does look like Megan fox) purely for drama.

I was talking about the Megan Fox girl the other day but I couldn't remember her actual name. She was the one who was determined to out the fact he'd slept with one of his friends even though they both wanted privacy and she was screaming "You Fucked Her" I thought she was deranged

Just binged over 2 nights. Not holding out much hope for any of them. The Daniel Instagram thing was weird and he really reminded me of Leonardo D'caprio in looks. Dave was just lying through his teeth and the crying stuff WTF 🙄. Strange again how supposed to be more people there this time and we just saw a few.

See I thought Jimmy was a gaslighting bell end who pushed her to the brink be where he was clearly fucking his mate and lying about it. He only picked her because he thought he was getting Megan Fox then just performed a total character assassination. For someone who looks like a thumb he has a nerve!

I also liked Chelsea far more than Jessica. That whole “you’re gonna need an epi pen because you’re gonna choke when you see me” was funny but very graceless and arrogant. She spoke about her 9yo like she was her mate and almost made “I was a young mom and I’m a cool mom” her whole personality. Aside from the fact it’s extraordinarily irresponsible to bring a stranger to live with your little girl, it’s just tedious when people speak like they’re superior or on a higher level because they had a child

Im a sucker for these shows and follow them all on Instagram. Chelsea has found love with a very sexy man and I’m so pleased for her!

But the best thing about that season was the many Instagram piss takes and sketches. I would spend hours watching them howling laughing

Tait's Take and Jessie Woo on Netflix also do good commentary

Sorry I mean YouTube! Duh!

I'm halfway through episode 5 and I just think Madison is quite devious or something. I found her quite conceited at the start, then liked her a bit, then have been gradually going off her the past couple of episodes. Like my first instincts were right. I'm curious to read here soon, see if anyone agrees.

I felt like she pushed mason to choose, even though she already knew she didn't want him. I also found it odd that she told her number 1 (forgotten name!) she had been brought up not to think / talk about sex etc. Then was having more sexual conversations with Mason

All caught up now. I wonder who did the casting? Half the men look exactly the same, can't tell who is who all in the pods whatever blonde woman named Meg, Madison, Molly, Monica aaaarrrgggg!!!! Even after episode 6 I don't know who is who especially the guys.

As for Madison, I don't understand why she was hurt by Mason taking his words back. I thought she has made up her mind to stay with Alex and it shouldn't have mattered whatever Mason did. Then to go and ruin it for Mason and the other women ( can't remember her name). Alex dodged a bullet there.

I also think Madison is telling tales. Too much has happened in her short life. Raised in a Gid fearing family of drug addicts, raising her siblings, living in Paris, teaching in Jordan and learning Arabic etc
I don't see a happy ending for Lauren and the guy who cried about his sister.

Something must have set off an alarm bell for Alex to back off Madison

I’m on episode 2, I have no idea what some of them are banging on about. I’ve rewound the conversation about sex between Alex and Madison 5 times and I’m none the wiser what they’re meaning. Why do they have to talk in riddles? She apologises for casting him off - what did she say?! Except that she isn’t ashamed of sex?

We've hardly seen anything from the pods for some of the couple who have made it through. Very odd

I NEED TO TALK ABOUT THE FIRST REVEAL

WTF was that all about. They were like 2 dogs meeting in a park. I see no sexual chemistry I don’t think they even kissed

Madison has a lot of sad stories doesn’t she. I’d fine it draining if she talks about them IRL as much as she does in the pods.

I don't think she expected him to have long hair and I don't think she liked it

I think you’re right. I quite fancy Joey. I like well built men and I like long hair!

I can’t make head nor tail of Madison

Shes super vulnerable shy kitten with Alex and sex maniac with Mason

This link (spoilers for ep 1-6) is useful if you forget who each other is etc and it gives a summary.

I might watch the pods again, as I know who everyone is. It makes more sense.

There was one guy who was asking a girl what kind of ring she might like etc, and said she was his number 1 from the start. Then his other girl came in and he denied all Knowledge. I think it was David and a very long haired pretty lady I can't recall.

There were a few instances of this.

Madison is quite poisonous I feel. Very manipulative and very - the world must revolve around me and my problems. Self focused?

I don't blame the guy for not proposing after how she reacted to the conversation about Mason. That was a red flag. She couldn't possibly think - this guy had shared accommodation etc for donkeys with Mason and they were actually friends. She didn't think Mason deserved sympathy or any kindness, just her.

I agree.

I always assumed they lived together in the place where the pods and communal area are but the instagram lady was filmed at ‘the girls hotel’ so I’m guessing they sleep elsewhere and come to the the pod bit during the day?
I laughed so much about the comment re joey and Monica being like two dogs meeting in a park 😂 that’s exactly what it was like.
And yes to Mat and Colleen. I was hoping she wouldn’t go through with the wedding, he was terrifying, really possessive and angry. Since the wedding she’s looked petrified whenever I’ve seen them together for interviews.

Anyone watching the new episodes? Not the most interesting!
