Is Love Blind?: A Professional, Scientific Review
One blessing about this quarantine is it has allowed us to completely submerge our minds is good ‘ol family television. Today we dive into a review of the sh*tshow that is Love is Blind on Netflix. In Love Is Blind, single men and women show up to live in separate houses and converse in “pods” to get to know one another in hopes of finding their one true love. After TEN long, grueling days, they have to make a choice to get engaged to the person they fell for in the pods OR run the hell away. The kicker of it all- at no point during these 10 days do they get to see the person on the other side of the pod. First things first, who the hell gets to know someone intimately enough in 10 days to get engaged? AND who wants to marry someone they’ve never seen until the big reunion after day 10… can you tell we think 10 days is a freakin’ joke of a timeline.
Scientists have said that emotional connection is what really makes a marriage work. So basically, this show is all about Science. It’s proven, right? It also shows us the impacts of alcohol consumption on the brain (cough- Jessica- cough). Weirdly enough, we judged the hell out of this show, but couldn’t stop watching. There were some couples we loved & some couples we could NOT stand.
Safe to say, we’re a little skeptical on whether we believe love is truly blind. Afterall, look at the damn dime pieces we married. We’ll let you decide after listening to our podcast, IS love truly blind OR is this just good television? No matter what, we promise you’ll be cringing for a good portion of it, but dang this ish is entertaining. Thank you, Netflix for pumping out instant classics like this.
