I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Guillelmina
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I started watching this after seeing a commercial for it and couldn't believe how ridiculous it sounded. It was like a train wreck I didn't want to see but was intrigued. Upon watching the first episode of the first season I thought maybe this could be interesting after all. But I soon realized it was anything but. I'd say I'd you're going to watch this then it may be worth watching the first season, but beyond that it's a waste of time. Firstly, the success rate of this show is abysmal. Either the "experts" don't know what they're doing, or they're doing the best they can with the limited sample size, or both. I also feel like the show is really drawn out, which makes each subsequent episode more and more boring. But most importantly after 8 seasons and a 27% success rate means that this show has serious credibility issues. Clearly, whatever they are doing isn't working. If the success rate was higher, I'd actually be more open to the concept of this show. It's like the "experts" are determined to prove their "skill" instead of doing real science, which is to admit when something isn't working and revise the method.

I think Courtney is being unreasonable. She says she is all about family and wants to go home for thanksgiving. Her family didn't even attend her wedding. Duh! She is a slob and should clean up her stuff. Jamie is so not nice to Jason, she should never have come into the marriage with dept. it's not Jason's responsibility to pay her dept just because he married her.I don't how Doug could love Jamie. I think he fell In love with her looks because she is so pretty. But I don't thin she really loves him. All she wants is a nice home and babies and knows Doug will provide foe her. I don't think she is in the real world. I think he needs someone who loves him for him.

I just watched this as a marathon. I wanted to love it, kind of like Monet and Vaughn wanted to love each other, but some glaring issues remain:My biggest gripe is that 1month is completely inadequate for an experiment such as this. I suggest at least 6 months to truly get to the depths of how two people adjust to an arranged marriage. I understand that there are other concerns when producing a TV show, but one month can't be taken seriously. It almost smells lazy in terms of production.The show recycled sound bites way too much. It was awful listening to the same quotes every episode!The matching process was hardly described- really vague. It made the first episode quite boring- which worked for me because I watched the wedding one first, so I was already hooked. But what would be educational about this show is to learn more about how they matched these couples.Another suggestion: it might be beneficial to round out every episode with a therapy session for each couple. It's another chance to educate the audience on healthy ways to confront marital issues, and it might help redirect couples early on, thereby increasing their chances of staying together.

Wow. What a piece of canned reality TV tripe. This show proved how low we can go in the name of "Science". and the " Science" of this show is disgustingly laughable. Spoilers alert.Take two people you kinda know and think might get along from a limited group. Marry them never letting them meet, see a photo, talk, meet each others family or see how they act drunk. then make sure they are all thirty somethings with family, career and father issues. What a nightmare. To make it a better nightmare we could have one marry Freddy Kruger. then it would be worth watching. The creature from the black lagoon had a better chance at love then any of these pathetic TV star wannabes. look. I know there is nothing on. But you're better then this. Yes you. Read a book, play a game. Put on a good movie, or just one your really like. This garbage makes people look bad and will make you frustrated and depressed. If you feel good about suffering and personality conflicts you will love this...and you may be the devil. I bet there are lots of classic films you have never watched. Just pick one. Its better then this crap. hell a bout of food poisoning is more comfortable then this.I wish I could give this a zero and make everyone involved apologies to you.
