Not a lot of depth or intelligence in this group, which made for a pretty boring watch. The producers did a good job with both Love is Blind Casts, not so much with this one.

One of the women headed off to work in scrubs, so I think she's got a real, actual job. And Zay is a club promoter or DJ or something, which is a real job though I don't think people in their 50's are doing it so he may need to transition to something else.

Also, I just want to put it on the record that although Colby is a terrible person, he has great hair. And April's use of third person speech as well as her 23 yr old desire to get pregnant is annoying, but does her speech or voice remind anyone else of Miley Cyrus?

Apparently he's a student, aspiring model and influencer.

I’m surprised by the pro Rae bent here. I am wrapping the series up and feel like Rae is basically the villain of the show. I think the stuff about being bi is true but it is also an easy excuse to justify a lot of cruel behavior (a la Colton underwood). He repeatedly tried to ask her about her feelings for him and she shut him down. Used him admittedly for sex and acted like it was crazy he didn’t want to propose until he was confident she actually liked him!

As for the rest, April is annoying but too good for Jake. Jake is repulsive. Alexis is lucky. Nate and Lauren are doomed and he seems creepy in some way. Madlyn is going to be on an episode of 20/20 after she disappears or something. Shanique is lovely but immature and should not be married. Randall is really a gem but also going and I dunno…didn’t seem like it was the right match.

Zay needs to grow up before getting married. Randall seems like a good guy.

Zay is very immature on top of being uneducated. Every time he spoke was nails on a chalkboard for me.

Zay needs a lot of therapy, as well as some anger management and elocution classes. It's clear he has a troubled background and tried to raise himself best he could, and just missed out on some components.

+1 I think he has some trauma from his childhood. I hope he is in therapy.

I thought he was doing really well, given all he has been through. That doesn’t mean another person has to deal with that but I thought he was a better person than Rae.

I didn’t like Colby at all. He’s awful and manipulative. But I also see where he’s coming from and don’t see why Madelyn got so mad. He didn’t get the true experience of being with someone he connected with. He decided to meet and kiss a couple other girls. How is that worse than madlyn basically trying to have sex with her guy? Only reason they didn’t is because he didn’t want to.

I just about every thing you said. I wouldn’t call Jake repulsive but yeah she’s out of his league and annoying. He needs a mild mannered match for sure. Not even sure he connected with Rae that much or if he was attracted to the calmness she exuded compared to April. Agree about Shanique. She’s stunning but so not ready for marriage. She’s demanding, controlling, and immature. Randall is equally good looking but they don’t seem like a good match at all. I don’t think he’s gay like others but he doesn’t seem like a good match.

I couldn't look at Colby the same way after the "April became a woman" comment. He's awful. I agree that the boundaries around cheating were super confusing and unclear, but I read Madlyn's level of betrayal as giving herself an out. I was absolutely shocked that she married him. Total 180.

Watching it now. I am three episodes in, and I am liking it better than the US version.

Lina is really something! It will be interesting to see how it all works out.
