Maybe it's just me but it seems as if their match making criteria has gone down hill, the doctors explanations of why they put these couples together seems so lame, as compared to season 1.

Nick and Sonia seem like the only couple somewhat compatible. And that's if his domineering mother stays out of their business

Heather and Derek, I don't know.. they don't seem like they'll make it but then again, look at Jamie and Doug. Heather just seems a bit uptight but maybe it'll work out.

Tom and Lillian, while both seem sweet separately, I don't see this working. He lives in a RV bus!!! And girls in the past haven't wanted to compromise with him on that, well who the heck would want to get married and have a family in a bus??? Grow up.

Hi! I have been a lurker here for the past 3 seasons and wanted to join in!

I so agree with you, as soon as he said he lived in a bus I thought, there's no way they are casting him. Guess I should have known better.
He said he wants to travel the world on a bus?!? I mean really?? That's great for a young single guy, but if you are seriously looking for a wife, it's probably not gonna work out.

I think they just pick a cast and then throw them together to make the best TV possible.

Thanks for the vent! handwave

out of lurkdom @Lorelei !

I still have not watched the first epi. Thanks for the recap!

That is a very unusual life style and I can't understand how they would successfully match him. She would have to be a certain type of individual that wouldn't mind living in an RV/bus or whatever it is.

For all the talk of 30,000 "applicants," the reality is that only a handful comparatively (and fewer over time?), I believe, are willing to go the distance personally (enter into a marriage), AND are "cleared" as eligible ("clearances" such as they are, screenings for sincerity, people pursuing fame, physical appeal at "FIRST SIGHT", etc.), so from that TINY pool of people, the experts put some pairings together and see what happens, now with more day to day support.

There are some odd couples this season, for sure.

I still record it, notwithstanding front row position on the the This Show Sucks parade at BBF, and zip through it in about 22 minutes, which I recommend by the way. It's worse than the Bachelor for the ratio of original footage (content) to promotional, repetitive caca.

I am so looking forward to Season 4!!!! I got a good feeling for two of the couples, so I can't wait to see if I'm right on who will make it.

Still on the fence about watching this one. May depend on what time it airs, since there is another show on at the same time, I think, that I like to watch.

I get my fill of this show from these very active threads! Very entertaining and informative.

You would think after the S2 and S3 debacles, they would actually do thorough background checks:

@MAFSDetective !

Oh brother, here we go again! Thanks for the info!

Heather and Derek didn't even make it to decisions day:

I think the producers want it crazy.

by jlccaz Wed Aug 03, 2016 1:24 pm

This Q&A makes it sound like the other two couples didn't make it either (many ugly cry previews also!), but maybe it is misdirection.

P.S. This show is ridiculous.

So when Nick was 20 he was charged with possessing an altered ID. I'm not excusing it, but there are sooo many 20 year olds that have fake IDs. His "rap sheet" doesn't look horrible to me. The Heather and Derek stuff is much more troubling to me.
