The Later Daters

I was not interested at all in watching yet another dating show but my younger brother watches it with his wife and convinced me to give it a try. I enjoyed the 3 episodes I caught so far. It's delightful and easy to watch.

I'm finding it aspirational. Most of the singles appear to live vibrant lives full of love already. Their self-esteem is intact and most are content, enjoying their lives right now. Open

Having a strong sense of self-worth and remaining open to attracting intimate love again is a wonderful thing.

Great job Michelle Obama and team!. I love that the haters face crack every time the Obamas rise.

Someone wrote in their review that they want to see people struggling. Like what?!?

If seeing people live well upsets you, consider some counseling. I enjoy seeing people happy, spending time with their loved ones and winning.

And I don't want to spend my time watching anything "average" especially "average Americans".

What is Michelle doing with all of her Ill gotten gains? Creating a dating show? This show was way too polished and everyone was extremely wealthy with lots of plastic surgery and big, giant houses, so it felt artificial, but the dates are real and sometimes they go good and sometimes not. I don't like the fact that the kids are involved. Unnecessary, but ok. The people are very likable and I will continue watching it. Consider including middle class people or people struggling, not just women who have money from previous husbands. It's got great character development. I would have given it a 7-9 if it was more realistic absent the kids.

So I stumbled upon this new Netflix show and decided to give it a watch. I went into this series with no expectations. I took it for face value. I myself am 55 years old. I have been married for 25 years. After watching this show, I am grateful that I am not out there dating. At this stage of life, starting a new relationship just seems like way too much work. Most of these people have either divorced or widowed. They have adult children. Some have teenage children. I just could not see the charm of getting involved with an already made family. That being stated, I think they did a fantastic job of showcasing dating over 55. I look forward to more episodes and I wish everyone on there the best of luck and love.

I am an over 55 person, so this was an interesting watch on multiple levels.

I feel like some of the featured people got annoying aftet a few episodes. Maybe it moved a little slow, felt repetitive at times. Also do people actually act/dress like this irl? Maybe Atlanta is just over the top. Some of the outfits were just a bit much- and the personities were ALL so huge. It came off slightly phony and didn't age well after a few episodes.

In the end, It was okay. I was happy for thosenit ended well for. Still, I was left somewhat unsatisfied, but that might be a me problem. It was very cringey to watch at times- I admit I fast-forwarded here and there. Some of these dates gave me second hand embarrassment- haha- and strengthened my resolve to stay single.

All in all, an OK watch!

I binged The Later Daters! It's such a wonderful series about a group of middle-aged and later single people looking for love. Logan, the dating expert helps the singletons navigate their way along the dating highway, by helping them get to know themselves better, and what they need and want in a partner.

I have to say that Anise was absolutely brilliant, I would watch a show about Anise and her daughter quite happily. Every time she came on the screen I was completely captivated, and the daughter's facial expressions were priceless. Honestly, if you love dating shows, then definitely give this series a watch, you won't regret it.
