I'm watching this (Love is Blind) right now! On Ep 5... anyone else? Any opinions on the couples?

I'm searching this whole forum and I can't find the name of the show that's similar to this. Help! What was the name of the show where the "lead" was behind a screen, one week was female the next week was male. The contestants only got to speak to them and answer questions but didn't see them until the end when they were chosen. I know there are threads because we were discussing it weekly.

leavers wrote:It's looking like there is one couple still together (the most likely couple) and there is another couple that if not still together, are still very friendly (one that would be a lot less likely based on the show but they definitely still hang out!). Dont' want to spoil it though.  It was filmed in late 2018! So still being together is a pretty big achievement imo

suzq wrote:@leavers.  Please feel free to spoil.  I always want to know spoilers.  I think it has to be really hard to keep their lives private for that long.

leavers wrote:ok, so according to IG sleuthing, it looks like Lauren and Cameron are very much still together. And it looks as though Barnett and Amber are either still together, or still part of each other's lives in some way.

suzq wrote:@leavers.  Thanks for the info!   If they had more couples get engaged, why didn't they show those couples as well?

Wonder if they fizzled but unlike Carlton and Diamond there wasn't enough drama. I think if they'd been a success story they def would have showed them.

Brill wrote:I guess there were 8 couples that got engaged but they didn't have time to show them all so I guess they took the ones that they felt that would give the best drama or make it more interesting.
I hope if they were successful they will mention them.

Brill wrote:I joined up to a FB group called Love is Blind Netflex Group. Tonight I just happened to check in there and couldn't believe it that LC from the show was on there live reading our comments and answering questions that she could for about 34 minutes and then had to go to bed. It was one in the am her time.
Here are some of the things she said.  Even though they made it seem like people were from different areas they are all from Atlanta.  She said it is not scripted, and today was her birthday and it was filmed a year ago.
They all keep in touch and she will maybe later this week come on again and have some of the girls with her to answer questions. If I know ahead of time I'll give a heads up.
Lauren and Cameron really did fall in love very fast and only talked in the pods to each other.  You could state to see a special person if you had a connection with them.
She said she dated a guy for almost 4 years and she felt she knew more about some of the guys in the house then she did her ex.
She also liked Kenney in the pods.  They got to see and talk to Nick and Vanessa quite a bit and they are very nice and beautiful.
After the show the ones that went home could date if they wanted to.  As in the Bachelor they had nothing to do other then there was a pool table in their half and she loves pool so they did that a lot. Lots of drinking.
There was no time limits in the pods so you could talk for hours if you wanted to.  I think she said they were there for 10 days. The ones not chosen went home and the others flew to Mexico and there were other engagements but because of time restrictions they couldn't show all of them.  If I think of more things I'll post more tomorrow.
Oh same production company as MAFS.

Click on her name and the video should come up.

I don't know that, LC couldn't say.  Maybe we will hear more later this week when she comes back on with some of the girls. The couple, she did say was really in Love from the get go, was Lauren and Cameron and she said they were so cute. I know she is up to date on all of them since she says in the video they all just got together last Thursday.
In the video she explains about her name on the show.  Her name is also Lauren and so TPTB asked her if she has a nickname and she said some of her girlfriends call her LC and that became her name on the show.

5 episodes are left. The next 4 are being released this Thursday 2/20 and then the finale is next Thursday 2/27. It was a 10 episode season that they spread out over 3 weeks.

It's up to you GA but they did say there will be another Love Is Blind coming.

GuardianAngel wrote:@Brill I forgot to ask, is this season 1?

Though there aren't photos of them together, since filming they've both gone to DragonCon and Italy. And they seem to have lots of mutual friends.
