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 !

I'm watching. Daniel's family are all gorgeous ( the one with the blind sister). I agree it is all meh so far ,no one getting angry and losing it. I need some drama.

Watching. It all feels a little bland so far.

Just started watching them. I remember absolutely nothing about Ben and his partner. I think I was so involved in people that didn't even go through that I zoned out on them.

Lauren should run

I agree
He is making such a big deal about nothing
I think he has found Molly on Instagram and wants to hook up with her.

jay55 · 21/02/2025 19:06

Am 3/4 through the first new episode and really struggling to remember who is who and tell any of them apart. I feel like I've gone face and voice blind.

They are all a bit generic apart from Dave who stands out for being an arsehole

I feel for Lauren - there's been something twitchy about him since honeymoon and his eyes dart about as though he is feeling very awkward or concerned...I think there is a lot more on this and he is using any excuse he can to get rid of her. I've had exes who moved on emotionally to other women while with me and picked on one tiny thing to cause huge issues about so it feels quite similar. Agree he is probably messaging Molly.

Yes he wants both to end it but also have it be definitely her fault

Those episodes were pretty boring I skipped a bit of them.

But I like Daniel a lot more, he seems very genuine, and his family are lovely.

The scene with Monica's family playing the instruments was funny, as was the sock bin conversation. Monica's sister is definitely a bit jealous, that daft comment about she should be first to get married. Though that conversation about her boyfriend still hankering after Monica can't have warmed the sister up to Joey much.

dimples76 · 21/02/2025 23:37

@Dunkou that was exactly what I thought about Monica's sister. You could see that the joke about her boyfriend had been taken too far. I loved the family jam though - that bit really cracked me up.

Lauren is way too good for Dave and I wish that she would just dump him rather than repeatedly being asked to explain herself about nothing.

I think that maybe it's just her personality but Devin's fiancee, whose name I have forgotten just does not seem like someone in love.

Daniel did come across very well and I loved his family but I think that he is going to get hurt.

TitsInAbsentia · 21/02/2025 23:37

Is Taylor going to get over the 'did Daniel already follow me on insta' thing? I wasn't sure if she was using it as she wasn't physically attracted to him.

The bloke with Lauren - dude going round asking everyone if they've had sex yet...pah ha ha! NOOOOO! I'm not getting a good feeling from him.

Monica's family were funny but her sister...whoah! Bitter? Possibly. I don't have an issue with someone challenging you on your decisions as such but the remarks about her getting married first etc definitely made you think there was an element of envy there.

I'm going to have to go to bed now and save the last ep for tomorrow because then it's a whole week until the final three drop!

Saturdaynightlive · 22/02/2025 02:29

Longtime lurker first-time poster on this thread. Just watched the whole Taylor insta drama. I get the feeling she's not that into Daniel and almost seemed disappointed when she didn't find him on her followers app. They all live in the same area right?, so maybe they have seen each other on there, but if she didn't recognize him in the pods, it is not reasonable that he didn't recognize her either. I'm confused by Lauren she seems to veer between a level 5 clinger, pick me mode, and trying to convince herself she is really into Dave. Don't like Dave at all.

lettyraines · 22/02/2025 07:53

Love is Bland. I usually have one maybe two couples I am less interested in or not interested in at all, so I skip through their segments. With this latest batch of episodes, I skipped through maybe 90% of them. At this point, I am only modestly interested in Monica and Tarzan. Daniel's parents were nice.

CatsLikeBoxes · 22/02/2025 15:16

There was always something off about Dave, and he definitely seems to be looking for an escape without blame - his face is also so lifeless and lacking in any humour/fun/personality. I feel sorry for Lauren but no idea why she wants him.

Tarzan - perfect name 😂 - though he also reminds me a bit of the prince in Enchanted - I felt a bit sorry for whateverhename is white the jealous sister, that he now seems cautious about the whole relationship because of the sister. They genuinely seemed like a nice couple who were having a lot of fun together.

My DD tells me that someone claims that the one who rarely washes his hair always left his you tube business card by the bed after sleeping with someone!

thenightsky · 22/02/2025 15:21

Do they get paid another dollar every time they insert the word 'like'? Lauren and Dave must be on their way to a million by now.

Also every 'for sure'

burnoutbabe · 22/02/2025 17:52

Dave does seem a. Idiot.

But I am not sure I'd be cool if my new fiancé had a fwb who as a mutual person and they were fwbing up to the pod start.

Just seems icky.

I have seen all 3 new ones. All boring. Bring on the other singles! I need drama!

jay55 · 22/02/2025 18:56

So there were so many pod episodes as absolutely fuck all happened on the holiday.

The only interesting thing in the new episodes was the jealous sister who hates that her younger sister is getting married first.

Really don't understand why they didn't follow basketball Brittany's other relationship, she was interesting in the pods, could have created some drama in Honduras as she also had a connection to Devin...

TitsInAbsentia · 22/02/2025 18:59

I'd have more respect for Dave if he just came out with it and said actually I've looked up Molly on insta and I want to go there...

MrsJamin · 22/02/2025 21:37

I think I'm just waiting for the episodes when discarded people return and we see some sparks fly between people. Also wtf is going on with dave and Lauren, I don't get the drama?

thenightsky · 22/02/2025 21:50

Dave is just ramping up the non-drama for likes.

I was surprised to hear about that not being included.

Madison is a total sociopath. She decided she wanted Alex and also she wanted Mason to want her. She fucked up his connection with Meg on purpose.

Although I don't think Mason was good enough for Meg. He did go after Madison.

wrongthinker · 23/02/2025 19:03

I don't get David's problem. People have exes. He's a knob.
