The One That Got Away

Sometimes you need love to grow. Contestants often had to choose between one of two options when they clearly weren't ready to make that decision, often after just one date, and when we as audiences barely got to see some of their interactions. Contestants sometimes chose the shinier option instead of the person that would have worked better for them as a result.

On the plus side, I heavily enjoyed the diversity of the show. I also liked that there were multiple daters and that the main contestants were sometimes separated from their dates but had times were everyone got together. It allowed you to see the contestants in different contexts which helped you to get to know them better.

Overall, the show has promise and I hope to see future seasons, especially if they make improvements. Also, whoever styled Betty Who (the host) deserves a Razzie.

How nice to see a fresh, new approach to a reality dating show. It's so much better than the average themes we've seen before. The fact that all who walk into the venue are known to the person they came to meet, adds to the whole idea being conveyed.

This show is addictive. I had to binge watch all ten episodes once I started! The participants vary in personality, and most are likeable. Any tension is understandable, and comparitively, there is a minimum of drama.

I enjoyed the beautiful location for this season. The settings and foods were eye candy. All in all a great first season for this new concept.

Except for all the like, 'Like' being said like every second word, it's like really, like annoying. But if you can, like, put up with it, it's kinda like fun and like, dumb!

There is 100% no science based facts that you meet the one by the time your 25 but don't know it. Most Millenials get married and have kids in there 30s or later due to wanting to experiencing life and with life expentancey at an all time high, they should experience life as long as they can before settling down. A trainwreck of a show forcing people to be together before they are ready to be together or were no right for each other in the first place.

What can one say about the show that is obviously created just a philosophy created just to fill a slot in the in the millennial bracket?. The contestants on this show are all shallow, self involved, self-promoting people of a very distinct demogeaphic rqnge - upwardly mobile, confident, pretty Millenials.

Of course they have the token gay man and Asian woman, but they both qualify for the same bracket. These people aren't really looking for love because they all seem to lack the mental maturity for any real connection, they are just looking to fill a slot in their mental picture.( Pretty, upwardly mobile spouse to contribute to our life goals - check!!) For almost all of us real love comes when you aren't ooking, aren't expecting it and open your heart to it, not when you are just looking for a business partner. These relationships are doomed to fail before they start, maybe not in the space of this show but within 5 years, tops. But hey, at least the setting and people are pretty.

Want to run a real show like this? Pick people of all walks of life, with a ton more diversity and age range. I'd love to see this show for 30-60 year-olds, with most in their mid-to late 40s. These are people that have actually lived, have regrets and wish for a do-over (but I know those people are out of the 'prime spenders' category *sigh*).
