Television Love Island 2019

Some are and some aren’t. Some of the girls this year are hateful, and by comparison are making most of the guys look like normal human beings which is a bit worrying.

I reckon on a real life scale Tommy's a cnut (Tyson Fury's his brother ffs), but as the rest of them are such huge twats he's become the nice guy in there.
 
:lol:

I've never watched this but seeing it constantly on the front page makes me kinda wanna give it a go

The thing that puts me off is that they all come across as unlikable idiots. Maybe I'm wrong for generalising or maybe that's part of the appeal?

The appeal I think is seeing loads of vain, seemingly supremely self-confident arseholes exposed to situations they’re not typically used to and watching their fragile egos try to handle it. It’s quite fascinating to discover just how insecure a lot of these people are.

They sound like quite the catch!

Im too intrigued in this so I'll have to watch either tonight's on catch up or tomorrow's. I already feel dirty and I blame all of you.
 
There is a bad core of a few women in there. They’ll defend each other until the bitter end rather than accept they are childish - trying to be loyal to each other rather than working with/on a lad. Amber, Anna and Amy will burn the Villa down.

I know it’s mad, I keep thinking he might be a sound guy to have a pint with then have to check myself to see if I’m being blinded by the rest

Those three seem to be on a mission to perpetuate every negative stereotype about bitchy women
 
Quality show :drool:

Are You The One is undefeated though, elite trash TV
Honestly never heard of that.

As far as trash tv goes, you can't beat the early days of Jerry Springer!

I can see them annoying me already... Looking forward to it!

It's all entirely superficial though isn't it. I mean we're not getting to know anything of substance about any of these people at all.

It's not like any of them are sitting down and discussing the impact of Brexit on the economy, or LGBTQ rights, or the the Tory government's treatment of poor people etc.

They could get to the end of the show naively thinking they've found some kind of soul mate and then find out within hours that the other person is actually a massive arsehole.

Oh absolutely, although I would pay very good money to watch that lot debate brexit.

Oh they mostly absolutely are, however i probably sound awful for saying this but it makes you less bothered if bad or controversial things happen to them if that makes sense? Eg I originally liked Curtis then he wound me up keep offering advice and being all smug now hes in his own problems and I hope he digs himself a deeper and deeper hole

Also you have to ignore the fact they say like in every sentence and "it is what it is" winds me up a treat!!

And “go for a chat”, “want to get to know you”, “my head’s turned”, etc.
 
I'd love to see one where they used "normal" people eg ones who've never had cosmetic surgery etc think that would be more interesting
 
So many of you hate watch this show and I love that even more :lol:
 
Spare a thought for this lad, did he get a second of camera time?

One of the reasons I loved Jess in the first season was that she played the game and took the show for what it is . I hate people who are obviously being nice for camera and a day after meeting someone are like oh you are my soulmate and shit
 
It's terrible terrible trash TV. It's the worst of modern "reality" viewing. It's unmitigated shite. But I've become addicted to it and I hate myself.

This is the truest post on the Caf. I despise all reality tv in general but love island just gets me too invested.

Think most of the boys are pretty sound this year tbf. The girls are all very bitchy though and generally not very nice. Amber, Anna and Amy are all bullies.
 
Anna - hahahahahah. What a hypocrite. I hope someone puts her in her spot.

I am praying Michael just throws it back at her in that argument. Can’t believe how hypocritical and stupid she is to get involved.
 
Amy is terrifying. Curtis needs to to tell her to do one. fecking weirdo. She's in love after 12 days!? Go and feck.
 
Watching tonights episode now, and just got to the bit where Amy reckons shes in love with Curtis.

Abort, abort abort abort. Abort. Hasta la bye bye. See you in a bit. you have Red flags, this is a red banderas monumentale.

The best is that girl who came in fishing for compliments and immediately asked Anton who the 3 hottest girls are while sitting with two of the other girls. To which Anton proper mugged her off by saying the other two girls and a third one across the Villa. She was made such a fool she was never to be seen again. I think that guy was just kissing everyone during that challenge though, he was proper quick with it. But tbf I couldn't tell the difference between him and this Marvin fella.

We go again Michael, we go again la
 
Don't get Michael's decision. He had a good shot at the 50k. Amber is a decent looking girl with a crazy body. He just needed to hold out a few more weeks. Joanna is maybe nicer but you ain't finding love on this show. It's about the cash.

Anna could well be the female version of Tom Hanks in Big. If he was a massive cnut.

Would you say £50k is small-fry compared to what they’ll earn from the exposure?

Theres been atleast 3 marriages and a few more couples are still together i believe. You genuinely actually can find love off this show but that doesn't suit the narrative of people who shit on the show (in general, not necessarily you).
 
That episode was amazing. My heart was genuinely racing at the end.

I tank this season up there with season 2, just below season 3.

Comfortably better than seasons 1 and 4.

Agree. Amber and Anna have shown over and over that they think it is one rule for them and their mates, and another for everyone else. I can't stand either of them.

And I've noticed this girl loyalty thing extends outside the villa too. The girls at work think amber, Anna and Yewandi can do no wrong. It's been facinating listenening to some of their justifications.

It looks like from the preview clip Anna not only looks angry at Michael she even goes and confronts him about it... she was annoying enough pulling the faces but she was far far quicker to get with the basketball guy Jordan was gone the minute she saw him walk through the door Michael at least showed a little restraint hope one of the girls drops her in it. Then the way she mumbled out when Caroline asked her why she left Jordan, could barely explain herself

Amy and Curtis tonight will be interesting, I think Jourdan is possibly "onto" him like people on here were as presumably she would have been watching the show? Also he was so into Amy now suddenly "theres someone missing" I'd be doubting his intentions
 
Amber not doing the best impression of someone who isn’t bothered
 
Michael being a total prick there. Amber might be hard work but she’s handled it well enough and there he is “why you raising your voice?” when she’s pretty calm talking to him.

Have to agree here. He looked like he wanted to make her feel like shit. Could have handled this all a lot better. Hate Anna though.. ew.
 
Amber has the worst personality ever. She also has no concept of it either and just assumes that looks are everything hence the ‘i can tell by looking at her I’m better in every single way’. She’s a genuinely horrible person.
