Love Island USA

And I love Love Island UK!! In fact I'm addicted to the UK version! But the American version, which I had a lot of hopes for, is just... depressing. The colors are dark, everyone talks about being "safe" instead of the majority of people actually looking to find love like they are on the UK version. It took me a bit to warm up to Ian Sterling's narration from the UK, but the narrator for the US is borrrrring... I'm sorry, but he is. In the UK, Carolyn Flack is a much better host than the girl from the US. The colors need brightened up big Time!! Needs a new host, new narrator and stop telling everyone what they need to do with each new person when they're recoupling!!! Arrrgh! Gets on my nerves!

The editing is absolutely terrible. They show the same boring morning routines and workouts. People pretend to be excited for a text. They have these meaningless conversations and continually say, "I have a connection with you". You don't get to see the real parts of people and who they are. And then the parties, challenges, and games are hardly shown. Mostly, the games they are edited and you see like one minute of them. The season is way too long. The number of new people brought in is so random. There are too many recouplings. How can you even get to know and like the couples to vote on them if they aren't going to be in the show after one episode? This could have been a good show if they fixed the editing and actually made the conversations and the people seem more realistic, after all it is called reality tv. The only good part about this show is the narrator.

New drinking game....have a shot evertime you hear "like"....be an early night and a rough morning.

The dumbest blondes, the stupidest tarts, and the trashiest loser guys all meet on Love Island which should really be called Skag Street or Herpes Heaven. These folks make you hope that at the end of the series they are given a lot of money to move out of the USA, and voluntarily seek citizenship somewhere else. Hopefully none of them will ever have children.

"Like do you like like me or like do you like the new girl?"... "It's like not that like I dont like you because like I do like you, but like..." Brace yourself, if you plan on watching this show, to hear a whole lot of conversations just like that! I don't even know how these people find the time to actually get to know each other with how much they say the word 'like'. Must take ages. And watching them make out is disgusting. I dont mind a bit of PDA but every kiss is turned into an attempt at a porn audition. Nobody wants to see full on tongues flailing and slobber flying. It's not sexy or passionate it's nasty. In my final thought, the narrator on this US version is dreadfully annoying and not a single bit funny. I wouldn't expect him to live up to Ian from the British version, who is hilarious, but this guy is a complete joke, and I'm not talking about his jokes. I like the British version of Love Island, but we can add this to the long list of British shows that the US attempts to remake that's nowhere near as good.... Shameless, The Office, Skins, Inbetweeners, Outnumbered, Fawlty Towers, even Ex On the Beach, and there's about 100 more.... If you're American like me, but have only seen the US version of these shows you are seriously missing the plot!
