This is my guilty TV pleasure. Five short-term and medium-term couples have to decide if they want to marry or breakup. The third option is the hook up with someone else in the group. So evil. ;)
Unlike most other dating reality shows, at the beginning of the series the couples all have to temporarily breakup. They then get the chance to explore dating someone else in the group. And at the end each person has to make a big decision. That's the basic premise of the show.
There's a good ethnic mix, but the age group is quite similar - which makes sense. We have White, Latina, Black, and Asian couples. I'm not sure if the dialogues are scripted or not - sometimes the discussions just seem to be too smooth - and at times I wonder if some of them are actors.
But in the end it doesn't matter. In four lengthy first episodes we get some entertaining drama - jealousies, flirts, doubts, mistrusts, rejections, and affirmations. However, the focus is usually on just a few couples, and nothing much as happened aside from people talking.
So overall I can't give this series more than 6 stars. But let's see how it goes.
