Married at First Sight Australia

Was made to watch the UK version and the Australian one is so much worse that getting no stars is generous. Many of the contestants obviously are more interested in becoming influencers than finding love. Endless recaps and previews throughout every single episode.

I know this has some dismal reviews, and I get that, but of all the formats of this show, The Australian format is the most watchable. I was made to watch this, and I binge watched several.

Yes it's hideous, yes it's bawdy and outrageous, but I couldn't stop watching. I know this is a show I would normally avoid like the plague, but I had to keep watching.

Of course it lingers on the outrageous, and highlights the worst moments, but underneath that you see some good people.

The settings are glorious, as a Brit, I'm jealous to see all of that sunshine.

It's watchable, 7/10.

Dumb, meloframatic, fake, hollow and unfunny. This show will bore you to tears and invade your nightmares with it's thoughtless production desgn and unlikeable personalities. Begging it to be pulled off the air and be replaced by something that's actually funny and creative

I started watching the series due to my liking for the British version and found that this is completely different. For the first few episodes I loved the show and looked forward to watching it of an evening but when I was 15 episodes into a 25 episode series (90 mins per show) I was sick of the amount of recaps of things I'd seen 1000 times before, and trailers for moments that turned out to be anti-climactic at best. I was so sick of the dinner parties and commitment ceremonies and there wasn't enough air time for the likeable and genuine couples. To be honest, I could be one of the experts if I state the obvious after something happens between a couple.

The very premise of the show is a relationship lottery from which the majority beneficiaries of are the expert panel, the media company and on a rare occasion the individuals.

It portrays the image of science equalling love but yet we have seen some awful matches and very little love.

On the up side there are the fortunate ones but ... Is the science consistently correct.... No is offcourse the answer because science cannot account for physical attraction and connection.

I question the integrity of the panel as there portrayal does not always relate to them being professional relationship experts based on their comments/responses.

I watched season 6 and for them to decide to make a complete mockery of the show and ignore their own science, being the very premise of the show in which they allowed inviduals from differing couples to get together is a mere statement of actually how important their show is as opposed to the science and/or couples.

In my opinion the fact is that the majority of couples fail and they are simply playing with people's lives and feelings, all for fame, money and publicity ratings and viewer numbers.

Yes it is their choice to participate but I feel the show let's them down immensely.

The format needs a complete overhaul, if indeed not completely terminated.
