Default Is love island what i think it is
I’m too lazy to watch an episode to find out for myself but the absolute WORST aspect of big brother was definitely the romances (heterosexual especially) so how do y’all enjoy a show where that’s the main focus?

Yeah it's BB but just focusing on the showmance aspect. Tragic really.

People crying after one day about being "split up"...

Any RTV is good RTV in this lacking climate?

i sorta liked the drama?? the 'tasks' were funny?? there were some nice one-liners?? i'd definitely much prefer to watch BB though (even in the state it was when it died oops)

it's sorta cute bc it's like the reality tv game show (besides the circle) which isn't American and so it doesnt have that god awful editing that's common among Survivor/BBUSA

like i'll never truly understand the people saying it's better than BB bc imo BB just allowed for more interesting dynamics,,, and bc all of the people are very samey in age and are sorta split in genders (all the girls talking abt boys at the pool and then men sunbathing) you just watch 'do bits society' for weeks on end

I mean there's worse ways to spend a summer but I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to see Emma clutching an umbrella as dusk sets in the sky obscured by the flashy studio walls on a drizzling Friday evening as she reveals whose been evicted, as opposed to watching Wes and Jack talk about shagging in a bed for 10 mins

That's because you watched the most boring series and when the show was at its most tamest. If you had watched series 2, you would've loved it.

People don't watch it for the ''romance'', we watch it for the drama. There's plenty of storylines that have occurred through 4 series. There's been ejections, walkings, arguments, fights, shock recouplings, confrontations, cruel dumpings, bullying etc. It's not just about ''romance''

Here's a few clips of some of the shows best and most talked about moments.

No, you asked a question and I answered it.

Don't watch the video links if you don't want to, makes no difference to me.

I don't mind showmances on BB (I can love them or hate them, don't specifically dislike anything about it)... but Love Island is a weak representation of showmances. It's so dull and forced in it I can't

But the winner is decided on ‘the best romantic couple’ as voted by the public right? So it’s sort of all about romance and everything else is kind of irrelevant?
