I’m back with more Perfect Match thoughts. After binge-watching episodes 5-8 yesterday and spamming my Twitter timeline (sorry followers) I just know I am going to have a lot of thoughts for the final four episodes so I have decided to share them here lol.

Highlights from my binge-watching yesterday were:

• Francesca embodies Regina George so much it’s not even funny. I actually loved the way she dismissed Damien by calling over Kariselle and then telling Damien to go check up on Dom lol. Like it was so bitchy but also I’m here for it.
• It throws me off that some of these people are the same age as I am because like I could never see Bartise and be like “oh yeah I wanna date him” but that’s also because I know he is trash from watching LIB and this.
• Ines has been spiralling recently and I feel like this show has not been good for her. I do wish she had had that chance with Dom but he always seems to immediately lock in when he’s with someone.
• Also, I had no idea they could bring people back after they had left but I guess it makes sense, there are only so many cast members this show could support.
• I also don’t know if I vibe with Will outside of the Mole but I like his whole “I have to win this thing no matter what” attitude lol. It’s clear he isn’t here for love but just a fun time and also to win even though I don’t think you win anything other than being called a good couple lol

There are plenty more points I am leaving out but if you’re interested then you can take a browse on my Twitter. My actual profile is a bit of a mess because of the way Twitter displays threads on your actual profile, and I’ve been tweeting here and there on multiple threads recently but it’s all there if you wanna look.

Now we have that out of the way, it’s time for me to dive into these new episodes:

Episode 9:

• The boys only support the girls being bisexual because they love watching girls makeout like don’t act like it’s a real supportive thing, you know Joey would be madder if Kariselle turned around and said she’s done with him and wanted to be with Francesca
• Once again Ines is being treated like shit because Damien is hung up on Francesca. I hate that for her. All these men ain’t for her.
• Chloe and Shayne are cute and I ship it, hopefully, it works out
• I thought I was going to be all for Francesca this season but honestly, she’s turned into such a villain and also all her asides with Kariselle, ugh it’s tiring. Like it’s classic popular girl not used to getting what she wants and stropping about it and it makes good TV but sing a new song hun
• Not even surprised that Will would go for Francesca because they both have the same drive to win things
• Ines choosing herself is the best-case scenario for me. I love her and I want better for her.
• Diamond was also too good for all the boys and I applaud her for exiting in the way she wanted
• I am gonna miss Will because we didn’t see a lot of him but he probably wouldn’t have made a good match with anyone
• Mitch just wasn’t ready to be on the show he couldn’t even commit to Chloe who was his ex lol

Episode 10:

• Lol can’t even be surprised that Francesca would want an open marriage – also looked it up and not shocked that she and Damien aren’t together. Damien just seems to love to chase after women he can’t keep up with and will chew him up and spit him out…
• In a weird way, I missed Nick, I didn’t expect to but now he’s on a date with Abbey and I’m like “oh remember Nick”
• I feel like Shayne was acting the same way with Natalie on Love Is Blind, like he would just get in his head about something and then not listen to what the other person had to say. He’s so not ready to be here if he’s thinking of leaving

Episode 11:

• Ooh Chaos bringing the singles back. I almost forgot about the Savannah/Francesca beef until she walked in the room. I wonder if there will be any cattiness tonight…
• Will shooting his shot with everyone we love to see it. Come in and test everyone and their connections, that’s the name of the game
• Francesca choosing no one is the plot twist I was not expecting but I am glad it happened. I mean she could have strung Damien along just to win but would it really have been worth it?
• Not gonna lie, I didn’t like Abbey that much she seemed very insecure no matter who she was with.
• Also not surprised Bartise decided to go for Izzy again.
• Surprisingly, not as much drama as I thought there would be with bringing people back.

Episode 12:

• I wasn’t thinking about it until just now but like a lot of these couples are long-distance and I don’t think any of them work in the real world lol. Joey and Kariselle give me hope but even then I don’t know…
• I don’t see Shayne going to the UK constantly and vice versa for Chloe. But then Chloe did date Mitch for a while and he was in the US so idk…still doesn’t seem likely
• SHUT UP JOEY NO YOU DIDN’T PROPOSE I’M SHOOK. Bro see now if they aren’t together I’mma be FUMING.

I’m not going to lie by the final episode I really didn’t care who won lol. Since everyone was so coupled up in the last few episodes it was not as interesting for me. I need the drama.

Suffice to say I’ve looked everyone up on Instagram and they don’t tell me anything – oh well Dom and Georgia aren’t together because it looks like Georgia is with Harry from Too Hot to Handle season 1 but we knew Dom was too good for anyone really.

I have mostly been waiting to see if Joey and Kariselle are still together. I have a feeling being back in the real world makes it more difficult because these dating shows put you in a bubble where you’re together all the time and have nothing to do but be together but like life ain’t like that. So yeah I don’t know, we’ll see. I’m rooting for them.

Honestly, I don’t think I’ve ever been so hooked on a show like I also really love the Circle so I feel it’s the only other thing I have really been into like this. I also wanna say is this what Love Island is like? Because I’ve never watched it but if it is then maybe that’s what I gotta look into next lol.

Anyway, thanks for joining me on this short journey if you did because I had a lot of fun. Next on the horizon for me is probably dipping back into Grey’s Anatomy since it’s been a long time and even though I have kind of fallen out of love with it I’ve made it through so many seasons that I need to see it through til the end. So look out for my usual thoughts on that soon. Oh and me finally finishing the PLL book series because I am on the final book for that so that’s exciting!

So far 2023 has been a great year for my blog let’s hope I can keep it up the rest of the year haha.
