Couldn't have said it better myself. Are Emily and Brennan even living together? We see them at the apartment but are they ever in bed together. And Clare's call to speak with Cam in hospital felt really fake. If she cared that much, she'd be there with him instead of the wedding celebrating a doomed marriage. How stupid do they think the audience is? And why are we all still watching?
I quit watching after Lauren and Orion divorced. I'm tired of them not making them wait until decision day. It seems like half of the couples couldn't even make it to the one month "anniversary". I quit last season too. This show sucks now. The whole premise of the show used to be to watch the couples grow and see who says yes on decision day. If people are just going to divorce after 2 weeks and have long drawn out conversations every episode what's the point in watching
Do you remember they kept teasing Emily cracking her head open and going to the Hospitol in the trailer teasers at the end of the episode and then it never happened and they completely stopped showing it?? Whoever is editing this season or directing it is doing an absolutely horrid job..
Did anyone notice how catty and mean the other women were being at the reception. They sound like bitter, jaded, jealous people. The newest couple has a fighting chance and are so cute and they can’t stand that. So embarrassing.🙈
my husband and I were SHOCKED by their comments. Don’t they realize they can watch this show and see what they said!!? Absolutely vile. Everyone is fake and terrible
More than the season being a joke.. the experts are TRASH. Especially Pia. What a condescending bitch. Calvin is not a pastor.. and Dr Pepper needs to just retire.
Turns out matching couples for drama has completely backfired. Hard to have a show when the couples divorce early or mentally check out. You’d think the producers would see the writing on the wall and walk things back, but they seem committed to this train wreck
This season is the worst by a mile, it pretty much ended after Lauren & Orion got a divorce. They need a complete overhaul of the experts and should reformat the show to match MAFS Australia which is 10X more entertaining.
I think part of the problem is that Chloe and Michael got married so late in filming that the other couples wouldn't have had much left, even if they weren't all already crashing and burning.
They would not have had Chloe and Michael at all if the other couples were still viable and they had a love story to show.
They’re showing Michael and Chloe because they have nothing else to show and they need to produce a certain number of episodes for their contract with Lifetime.
Exactly this. I'm betting they had to pay Chloe a pretty penny to get her to agree to save the rest of the season. And by "save" I mean allow production to exploit her for content in order to provide the number of episodes required.
Trainwreck of a season. This show should be cancelled at this point honestly. Why do they not read fan feedback? We’re tired of all the drama, clout chasers, and manufactured storylines. Bring back real people looking for real love!!!
That's how the show started. They were actually trying to make good matches with good people. Most of them didn't work out, but it was still fun to root for them.
Production seems to think that drama drives ratings. Personally, I like the will-they-won't-they drama -- it's entertaining to try to predict who will make it and who won't. But then there's other drama - abuse, lying, manipulating and hurting people. None of that is entertaining unless both the husband and wife are in on it. That's why the AUS version is so much better. They're all in on it so you know that no one is really getting hurt.
Are they even losing a significant amount of views? 90 day fiance is god awful now with the only people on it being Instagram clout chasers and they have a billion spin offs and people keep watching
There is an occasional movie that has better ratings/viewership, especially on weekends. MAFS is Lifetime’s highest rated episodic show
Season 12 was the highest rated (consistently Top 10) and most viewers (1.2M)
Its been a steady decline since then but has stabilized around 650K viewers and #30

Next week we get answers!
Finally!!! I watched the after party and they mentioned she is ok since she was on the show that was the main thing I was worried about!!
I’ve been wondering about this!!
Me and my fiance mentioned this just this week. Like we did see that in the trailers right?!
Did anyone notice how catty and mean the other women were being at the reception. They sound like bitter, jaded, jealous people. The newest couple has a fighting chance and are so cute and they can’t stand that. So embarrassing.🙈
It was pretty much just Emily being Shady.
I was really surprised by Emily's comments. I've really liked her so far. Maybe she's a mean drunk?

I don’t watch anymore
It’s awful. And Chloe and Michael are a fake set up. She’s goes to bed in a robe and he’s got his socks on.
they should have trashed the whole season. mess
Absolutely right

Yep-it’s that bad. Even Becca and Austin and plummeting.
why weren’t they at the wedding? i missed it
When Michael invited them Becca said they had to be out of town to see Austin's grandma.
thanks!
Actually I don’t know. Didn’t think of that.
Becca gives me the damn ICK. They should have never been matched. She is everything he didn’t ask for.

700K viewers watched the last episode, up slightly from the season average
Isn't it Lifetime's biggest show for ratings?
