Love Is Blind: Season 4

I think they must have stylists for the reunion!

YES. Although I will say it feels the most racially diverse of any of the reality shows Iā€™ve seen

Rosie you nailed so many of my feelings including the show making me feel bad but continuing to watch it lol. Maybe Iā€™ll be able to pass on season 5??

@noodle and @Rosie you (and everyone else) should watch Physical:100. We just finished the first and only season today and it was amazing! The strongest and most athletic 100 men and women in Korea compete in all of these challenges and itā€™s really elaborate and clever and super dramatic, like Squid Game as reality TV (but without the death). Each person has a plaster cast of their torso and they have to smash it if they get eliminated, which is really emotional for some people. Watching these athletes (especially some of the women) is so inspiring and also heartwarming because most everyone is a good sport and they cheer each other on, and some people even make sacrifices to give others a better chance to win if they know theyā€™re not going to make it. And thereā€™s very polite Korean trash talking :joy: I suspect Season 2 is going to be filmed in a different country but I donā€™t know if itā€™ll be the same because I canā€™t imagine everyone being good sports like the Koreans. I also love that they filmed interviews of all the contestants so you can hear live commentary of what was going on in their heads and their strategies during the challenges.

Ahhhhh I just loved this show so much!!

I watched that! I wish they separated the divisions (male/female) and played them side-by-side, but it was still cool! I have the same wish for Ultimate Ninja Warrior, lol, different courses but same proportional challenge level would be so much better!

I think the point is that for some of the challenges the women were just as good as the men, and it was super impressive because no one expected that so it makes for better TV. And they wanted it down to a single person at the end!

But women didnā€™t win any of the games! Except for team challenges that were mixed. I felt so bad on some of the lifting ones, that one where the super badass woman couldnā€™t even lift the thing that was supposed to be held for time was hard to watch. She looked so embarrassed. :frowning: I get the point though! To have one winner, etc. I just love watching women athletes and Iā€™d be so into seeing the strongest/best woman athlete. And itā€™s hard to watch as it goes on and more women drop out, and just knowing they have basically no chance (or almost no chance) of cracking top 5.

I mean itā€™s just a show, lol, and real sports are divided so thereā€™s that. I just want to see the strongest best female athletes from mixed sports backgrounds compete against each other! It would be more entertaining IMO, but Iā€™m more into female sports in general so Iā€™m biased, haha.

Random side note but that older MMA champion guy was so hot, haha.

But it was really close, like that boat thing where we didnā€™t even think the weakest team might even finish! Honestly it made it so much more impressive for me to see that than if there was a separate competition for women.

And the boxer woman who did the boulder challenge voluntarily took that one as a sacrifice so that her team members would have a chance to place, and that was amazing.

I was really into Agent H! Damn, so hot! :sweat_smile:

And the woman wrestler team lead, too!

Guess what? My chiropractor is a huge fan of Love Is Blind and said she recognized the buildings outside Brettā€™s apartment when he was living alone, and it was also (like Kwameā€™s old place) just blocks from the chiropractic practice! That part of town is where the cool young people live so I wouldnā€™t be surprised if Brett and Tiffany still live in the area. I might run into them sometime!

Also, my chiropractor said that she has a bunch of clients at Nike and some of them know Brett, so that makes me 3 degrees from him. And now youā€™re all 4 degrees from him :joy::joy::joy:

Tell your chiropractor we appreciate her.

Apparently theyā€™re casting a coming season in Denver now, I can only aspire to be this person when the Denver cast airs.

Youtuber and LMFT Stef Anya talks about Jackie and Marshall

Edit: she kinda goes off on having Nick and Vanessa as (terrible) hosts of the show in the reunion segment of her episode, lol.

I was right! Finally figured out which house today ā€“ it is about 1/2 a mile from mine along the trail.

Her cousin has a cheese board business registered to the address. I wonder if she did the cheese plates that got all the close ups in the pre-wedding shots?

We just signed back up for netflix and I watched the pod episodes and then came here. Because all I wanted at this point was gossip - I could not believe how awful Micah and Irina were. And they each got picked over a nicer girl. I really donā€™t like Paul, so if he and Micah want to be awful people together, so be it.

Other than being able to see every pore, I think this cast was the most attractive, and I didnā€™t see any size diversity, which makes me wonder if that is a casting choice or a who is applying choice
