Love Island 2019 (Please See Note In OP...)

jluv

Amber was disgusted

LirW

No matter what I'm in Team Anton because he's a good bit denser than the others paired up with accidental hilarity and people like him always amuse others without knowing because they're so thick but also don't sulk over it.

I mean his mother shaves his arse!

Depends if it's your cup of tea. For me they normally start slow, then fire into it when it's gets more tactical and desperate.

Last few episodes when they're safe from recoupling I tend to switch off when the lovey dovey couples that are left wait to see who wins.

Never watched it before. After your post will give it a few more nights. And see if it picks up for me. Cheers.

Last night I thought Tommy was very “hawt” and he is ... but I’m bored of him already. I think if you’re going to watch this you have to accept early on that intellectual conversation or debate is not going to feature.

Just hope the Aussies throw in crazy people again.

Amber has a vile, superior attitude. I think we all knew a mean girl like her in school, the type who could make you feel stupid and 2 feet tall for saying the most innocent of things.
The kind who would take the p*ss in front of lads for attention, you know?
She’s so nasty but very entertaining so I hope she lasts so she can stir up some drama.

Yerwande is naturally so beautiful but as dull as dishwasher. She’s going to get swallowed up by the bigger personalities if she doesn’t stop being a wallflower.

Curtis is a bit camp but the only one with any real personality, he’s so witty and very handsome (imo), he’s my favourite for now.

Don’t find Tommy attractive at all, I think he’s very similar in looks to your average insta influencer with the faded haircut, muscles and tattoos.
If I had a look through my newsfeed I could probably find about 10 lads who look exactly like him.

I personally would find the likes of Curtis, Callum and Joe much more attractive because they look less high maintenance, but that’s just me :pac:

Dirkziggler

The line up isn't as good as previous years. We need a few more snakey people in to spice it up. Hoping Amber upends the house she seems twisted haha

It's interesting watching but in all honesty the show should have been cancelled. Joe must be feeling low ATM isolated in a house where he has to see Lucie share a bed with Tommy. I know it's only been one day but I know what its like when you really like someone even after a short period of time. The producers want drama for ratings. They want the contestants getting hurt.

He has known her less than 24 hours. They know the concept of the show when they sign up.

I’m against exploiting people for ratings but that isn’t what this is.
None of them even know each other yet. It’s literally the whole point of the show for them to get to know as many people as possible in order to find who they are most compatible with.
Very rarely is that the first person they couple up with.

Fan of Netflix

Can't see the Irish one getting anywhere. Doesn't seem like the right fit for the show.

I get that but last year's winners were together from the start. Joe is undoubtedly feeling super low ATM and that's cos of the shows format. Pair that with the pressure after leaving the villa along with the criticism and hateful jokes people throw around on Twitter (Anna in particular) this show has a lot to answer for.
I know everyone chooses to go on it but do they know what they are getting themselves in for?

MuffinTop86

Lucie is trying to be the Dani Dyer, only without the stupid lip pecks cos she’s proper kissing him. Whether or not Joe is in on the scam too is uncertain, but another season of a couple of coasters would be unbearable to watch and also bad for the show.
Amber is a love to hate character, which is good!
The pharmacist, ugh Sherif must’ve felt like he was kissing a large wine gum.

Emmser

Sleep with Tommy
Marry Curtis

If I were in there I’d be constantly plaguing him to teach me how to dance....how come no one has asked that of him already?! I wanted him to end up with the Irish girl so badly.

She lacks ‘banter’ experience and is not confident, I died a small death at her conversation by the pool and with Curtis. Too nice for that show....also, did she try put on more of an Irish accent at one point tonight....did a Saoirse on it?!

Emmser

When I was asking about the Australian one I was looking for the link to watch it now as opposed to when virgin media show it after this has ended. I loved watching both at the same time last year.....major withdrawals then....

IAMAMORON

I think Amber is a one trick pony. It happens. She is v attractive in looks and she knows it.

However she is quite boring and bland in nature..... and she knows it.

When fine looking birds figure out they haven't got a clue they usually panic and hit the " I am a hard nasty bitch " button. It gets nasty for a while, but the most pathetic thing is when you peel back the bull**** and find blandness underneath.... it happens all the time.

Most birds are well capable of being bitches, but simply don't bother, not to your face anyway. The smart girls know it is a waste of time. The fact that Amber has chosen to tell everyone she is a Diva says it all really. I doubt she even knows who Grace Jones is. She is just a lonely walkover, having a conversation about shades ffs?

I actually feel a bit sorry for her, she is very immature.

So what you are saying is 'it is what it is"?

razorblunt

Out of interest why do people think Lucie is playing games?
Maybe this is a classic case of guys getting hoodwinked but I think she's quite genuine, even her appearance is more genuine than the others, she hasn't worn anywhere near the makeup seen in Day 1 since.

I'm not sure I'd say she's playing games but I get the vibe that she's someone who will fly through the lads, maybe she will use it as a bit of a game.

It seems Joe is definitely more into her than she is him, could be wrong and they'll recouple and try power couple to the finish, but you get the feeling what she wants just changes with the wind. Even at the beginning, going by just looks and goes for the guy she think looks like a "bad guy", then switches straight off for the "surfer looking, long hair" guy, then starts going for Tommy because she loves "boxers". Didn't she also want to sleep with a guy in uniform at his place of work? Not judging but her reasons for going after lads isn't exactly based on connections that you'd think will last.

Hard to tell who is and isn't playing a game, but despite telling Joe she hopes Tommy wouldn't pick her she didn't exactly push him away when he asked how'd she feel, and wasn't too gutted after. If she is game playing it's smart. Now that Tommy broke up her couple she has the option to be all mopey and upset, then re-couple up with Joe, he'd stick by her and ride the loyalty tag to the final.

We'll wait and see. I've no issues with game playing, and you can be genuine and a bit tactical. It's part of the show.

Because it's light entertainment.

You don't have to agree, but what's the point in coming into a thread about the show to slam it and contribute nothing to the thread?

There's plenty of people who don't like it, which is grand.

In Ireland we see rain almost every day. Yesterday morning there was a ferocious rainstorm and driving on the M50 was hazardous, and we are in summer!!
8 weeks of love island is good for our hearts, heads and souls.

My point was to go on record with my dislike of the 'show'

I do think there is plenty of harm in the fact younger viewers may watch this and aspire to be like the contestants.
Being slutty, low IQ, low self respect, crude etc - all qualities that shouldn't be be inspirational.

I am all for entertainment but this really is bottom of the barrel stuff.
Each to their own of course and more power to you if you have the patience to suffer through this.

I agree, yet here you are posting multiple times on this thread..your dislike is on record...now....off with ya.

Dirkziggler

Anyway away from the detractors.

Amber will be a snake in the grass while there last night's reaction she was stirring the pot.

Amy will be another Camilla.

Joe will fall in love with 2 or 3 girls in his time there.

Tommy will be gone soon, not genuine.

Michael and Callum are dreadful to watch they literally do nothing and their conversations are quite dull.

Anton is gonna cause some beef and be hated.

Yewande needs to get the first plane back to Dublin airport.

Curtis is a coaster and will see any is vulnerable and coast the series till exposed.

Anna and Sherif have potential I think.

Your opinion of the show has been noted and saved in our files, thank you for going on record.

I would now like to formally announce that I do in fact enjoy the show.

It's something you love to hate or hate to love, or a bit of both.

They annoy me, cheesy brain dead eejits, but I get a laugh out of them. And its interesting to watch how people develop and cant really hide their true character no matter how hard they try. Every time I say I'm not watching it again, it is pure tripe, but its a bit of escapism on a rainy Tuesday evening. You'd have to wonder how people got so vacuous, you'd have to wonder how all of this preening and grooming is not doing them any good, given that some of them look 20 going on 45!

Light relief, you dont have to use your brain to watch, in fact, its better if you dont!

The laughs here are great too!

All the talk about none of the couples lasting I decided to scope how the Aussies fared. I didn't expect any to be together a year on but some were gas and done within 2 weeks after!

There was one couple surprisingly still together (

Josh and Amelia

) which is quite funny as they didn't win it and others in the house and watching accused the girl of faking her feelings for the guy and being a game player, just using his feelings and knowing he would be popular.

Very similar to a lot of people's views on Joe and Lucy. However think it's rare any of them actually last, but who knows.

Just from the last page alone is why I don't like this show, it instills a nasty tone from people watching it to feel they need to comment on people based on watching 2 hours tv.

Horrible, fake, dense, thick, vile, nasty, dull as a dishwasher, twisted, boring and bland, cheesy brain dead eejits, just some of the terms used in the last 40 posts to describe the contestants.

No wonder we live in a world surrounded by people feeling self conscious.

I'm with you!

Getting rid of Love Island would finally allow us to take a step back to the good old times before television where self consciousness, and nasty tones didn't exist, as there wasn't any of this trash instilling them.

We can finally walk the streets in peace hand by hand, with our bare feet touching the grass. Love Island just the start of our uprising!

I just don't understand why people would bother posting on a thread about a show that they hate!!

Why bother even reading the thread?!

Does it give you some sort of sense of satisfaction to go out of your way to pick out posts to quote and comment on them?

If you hate the show that much, just move on - ignore the thread - it's really not worth stressing yourself over!!

I couldn't imagine putting posts on a thread about cars or something asking people why bother posting about all these fancy things your car can do - once it gets you from A to B then that's all that should matter!

Would be funny though to go into a football thread to constantly tell people why you dislike football for example.

Mr E

Guys, we say the same thing in the Big Brother thread, the X Factor thread, the BGT thread - if you don't like a show, keep scrolling.

People do like reality TV. Get over it.

By posting your distaste here, you are trolling the people who do like these shows and like to follow along.

We get it, you don't like it. Just move on. Thanks.
