The Spouse House - Episode Discussion - General Discussion - *Sleuthing Spoilers*

Do we know Scott and Tracy's IG or Twitter? TYIA

Let's be real, while I am a romantic at heart, the idea that in two weeks someone should meet and marry someone is beyond unreasonable. OMO, but the idea of Spouse house in general is absurd and a ditto for the Bach/ette. But to try to force a marriage because that is the premise of SH is patently absurd in my mind and flies in the face of what marriage is about. Yes, there are exceptions to the rules but by and large this is nota recipe for success.

I'm sad that Tom was chosen to stay, he to.me comes off as a huge jerk and a player.

I don't like Isabella either. In fact her and Tom.would be a great pair. Both are self centered.

@mizzoufan ITA I have no idea what anyone see's in Tom. Isabella is cute but her attitude is just weird to me. I don't see the connection with her and Darren.

Tom has been a no since day one to me. Physically I just don't typically like the big muscle bound guys...unless they end up having a great personality...and he clearly doesn't. He is self absorbed and isn't looking so much for someone who he loves, but rather someone who he could show off on his way to this big successful career he is planning. For me he is such a total turn off I just can't understand why these women don't see what a jerk he is.

As for Isabella, I honestly think that race is the issue. I don't know if she would acknowledge that that is the problem, but that is what it seems like to me. All the other things that she is throwing out there as obstacles just seem like excuses. It's as if she is trying to deliberately get him to break up with her so she doesn't have to admit that that is the issue. It's too bad, because he seems like a really nice guy. I wish he had had more options. I wonder if they would have any of the people from this season come back on the next one?

I posted Tracy's IG in the SM thread but it is private. Never found anything on any of these latest additions except Michelle. Hers is in that thread as well and it is public.

I bet a few of those guys regretted voting for Tom to stay since they were interested in Michelle and she went for Tom.

I really would like to know what happened on a date Tom and Isabella had. They never showed it but it was in the previews.

I completely understand what you are saying but IMO, you have to remember that we are only seeing a snippet of these relationships and the time they are spending together.  Missy has been very open on her IG with posts about the show and on one of them she responded to someone that she and Chris had so many conversations... deep conversations and they really did get to know each other very well.  It differs from TB/Ette in that it isn't multiple people competing for 1 person (although the women after Tom has been ridiculous).  The fact they do these exploratory marriages means that they are spending all their time interacting with just that person except for group activities.  And, evidently, they meet with the counselors quite often during this process as well.

I figured out the timeline for Danny/Naya and they got married 3 weeks after meeting.  You could tell from Day 1 that they were interested in each other.  Jimmy and Kelli Jo got married 4 weeks after that so at the 6 week mark.  Jimmy also said that Kelli Jo was who he was interested in from day 1 as well.  I also think the fact that the married couples stay in the house until filming is over so they can really get to know each other and meet with the counselors is a very good idea.

Those that come into the house after the 4th week (of 8 weeks of filming time) really are at a disadvantage in getting to know the people and that has been seen.  They lucked out with Scott and Tracy... both late arrivals and Scott not being in a relationship when Tracy came in was a good thing.  

If nothing else, this series has given these people a good look at who they are and what they want out of a marriage.  Besides the 2 couples that got married, IG posts have shown that Missy/Chris and Tracy/Scott are possibly still dating.  Who knows... they might just be other connections out of this show after the fact because this cast seems to enjoy being with each other and since all of them live in Chicago, it is easy for them to hang out.

FWIW, I have enjoyed this show so much more than TB/Ette and BIP that have been on the last few years.

I don't care how silly this is, I love it! It better be renewed for another season. I should see if I can find any info.

I find shows like this very interesting, along with MAFS. It's much more intriguing to me. We can read the edit, but right now (hope I don't jinx it) it's not very scripted, where you don't really know most of the time what's going to happen.

I look forward to the reunion show!

I've never gotten into MAFS but I did enjoy 'Married By Mom and Dad' that aired last winter. 3 of the 4 people on the show got married to their parents' choices for them. 1 of them is still going strong and that is the one I was hesitant about! The one that didn't get married was not a surprise to me. She was such a princess and no one would fit her requirements. Her poor parents really tried and had a couple good guys but she was allowed to meet them in advance and she turned both of them down! I was hoping 1 of the other couples would make it but I'm thinking they didn't. Not much out there about them at all.

I hope Spouse House is renewed as well. Production company is the same company that does MAFS, Kinetic Content.

Sunday, Sept 10 is the last episode called "Tell All"

All 27 men and women who entered the house are reunited for the first time; everyone discusses the state of their relationships and old love triangles before shocking revelations take place.

@havadrpepper. Thanks for the info description of "Tell All" episode. 27 contestants are too many IMO. I feel like I only really got to know about 10 of them.
