Married At First Sight - Season 2 - Sean Varricchio - Davina Kullar - *Sleuthing - Spoilers* #3

What bothers me most, is that, IMO, the "experts" had a pretty good inkling that Sean wouldn't follow thru.  He has his own place in Jersey, close to his work....the trip is beyond crazy from where he lives to NYC.  When it became clear he was spending more time at his home than with Davina, something should have been done.  Just spending 10 nights or days together is NOT what the supposed "experiment" is about....as I understand it.  The "experts" needed to reign Sean in and get to the bottom of things WHILE filming and let him know....no showey, no money!!  He knew what he signed on for.  He KNEW the very FIRST time he drove from Jersey to NYC that he wasn't gonna be doin THAT anymore.
The constant "you need to be here for me" things Davina kept saying that made HER out to be a whiney "birch", (LOL) when in essence, he WASN'T "there" for her!!!  I mean PHYSICALLY not there!!
That to me was total and utter BS....for Davina AND the viewers....well, me...LOL
The "experts" bought Sean's sob story hook, line and sinker.  Yep, so he had to work...if he wanted to be "married" and on a show so much, and knew what the show entailed, he would have set things up with work.  He just wanted to be on TV and make the "alleged" $14,000/episode. ***Edit to add $$ is not positive, just what I read, but didn't find that link. A post further down gave another $$ figure.

The experts did not know how many days or nights they spent together. That is in my opinion why they asked at the reunion. It is so easy to blame the experts for this entire mess rather then the people that were in the relationship. For example if you knew a therapist, they were your best friend and set you up on a blind date. If the relationship failed are you going to blame your friend for the inital set up ?

Second I thought it was 1500. ?

I wouldn't necessarily blame my friend for that type of set up....unless they told me they had done oodles of research, background check, personality and psychometric testing along with STD screenings and didn't. (IMO, ALL of the men were "off" on this season...especially compared with S1). Whether or not the network properly put them through the process is yet to be confirmed, but sure doesn't seem like it.

Apples, and Oranges... a friend is one person, and is that one friend going to do all the testing that was alleged to have been done with the men. There were 4 so called professionals vetting out the men. And they failed miserably.

Sorry, my mistake, shoulda found the link where I saw the $14,000. BUT, that person could have been mistaken, as well. Apologies!!

Wouldn't the camera people know they were only shooting at limited times?

You have to admit a SINGLE "blind date" is far from a marriage for 6 weeks with a STRANGER you trusted the "experts" to match you up with. One of the ladies even mentioned she didn't understand why she was matched with their choice, but she TRUSTED them...that they knew what they were doing!

Marrying a stranger is stressful enough...at least the "experts" could have made sure Davina's guy was from NYC....or at least just over the Jersey bridge or tunnels, or in one of the surrounding boroughs in NYC.

Oh, well....what's done is done. Sean looked like a deer in the headlights most of the time, anyway...LOL

I remember Monet saying something about filming says because she worked. It's of my belief they only stayed together on filming days. I hate they have to keep up a rouse on SM. Viewers would still watch if they knew they were divorcing. I would want to know HOW it happened.

IMO we need to stop blaming the experts for the failures of these relationships. Vaughn & Monet did not work out despite the experts matching...AND THEY MOVED ON. The off screen issues that have been happening is not the fault of the 4 experts. The amount of time that these 'contestants' chose to spend together is not the fault of the experts. I could almost see the Ryan D anger issue but the experts do not work alone. The scads of network execs and directors who aid in the selection and manufacturing of these matches need to be taken into account.

They do? I did not know the execs and directors had anything to do with the selection process. I thought it was the experts. Can you provide a link to the selection process? TYMV.

The camera men would certainly know about filming. The experts even admitted during the reunion that they are not really there throught the 6 weeks. That is there time to be , learning about each other in my opinion and working on things as a NORMAL couple or as about as normal as it can be. They have to deal with struggles and learn to get through them. That is what marriage is about, not having therapist with you everyday. The background check was a huge miss and should of been caught, the only reason I can think it didn't is maybe they only searched the state th as t he lived in and nit florida. For a psych check, its not like hes mental or suffers from multiple personalities. Everyone needs to take accountability instead of just blaming the experts
