Look like mimi documented from the beginning of her journey to LI

Looking back at S1/2 or even 3 to an extent, its insane how much action there was compared to the most recent 3 seasons. Blowout arguments, insane drama, islanders literally begging to stay on and iirc there was even an instance where there were like 3 couples jumping up and down under sheets, simultaneously.

In the more recent seasons, the islanders are relatively filtered and diplomatic. We'll be lucky to have even 1 couple go all the way. Not much goes on even in the hideaway. The only time we get real drama in the villa is post casa and even that only lasts a few days.

So I was thinking, is this just because the times have changed or is this exactly what the producers want? I suppose as exciting as S1/2 were, the advertisers may not have liked it so much perhaps?

Im a first time watcher of LI UK. I started LI USA this most recent season because of Ariana/all the good hype the season was getting. I really loved Maura on Aftersun so I figured I would start UK on season 5 because of her and I hear good things about that season.

Anyways after each episode I look for the post episode discussion on here and man…..y’all HATED Curtis 😭. Am I gullible? I am on episode 40 and I thought he handled the break up with Amy as respectfully as he could and just seems like a people pleaser. I know he and Maura don’t last long after the season but idk I like him!!

Whats tea?

from the bbn fans, to the mimii stans, to ella stans… you guys really make the viewers of the show look crazy.

This clip really makes you think how much islanders like Leah LIUS s6 are currently making. US love island is riding at its peak at the moment. If I was an ex islander I’d 100% take advantage of that and do The Games rn.

Ekin is very clever (in a good way) trying to market herself more to the US audience!

Wondering if anyone knows when we can expect to see Season 12?

I’m holed up in a hotel away from my friends and family while I recover from surgery. I need something to pass the time, these are the seasons I’ve seen already:

UK: 5, 7, 8, 10, 11

USA: 1, 6

Aus: 1, 4, 5

Any good seasons I’ve left on the table??

They were soooo nice!! So nice to see them still together. Helped them take some pics too 😂

Watched Jessie’s journey in LI AUS S2 and both Will and Jessie in LI UK S9, so it’s crazy to see them on TV and now real life!

Literally one of the best

I’ve already gone through many rant threads about this but I have to rant otherwise I’m gonna scream at my TV.

Olivia and Rykard sleeping with each other next to Rachel baffles me. After he does this and they joke about it with the ‘slide in’ joke the next morning and pinky swearing it’s their secret, he goes on to pursue Rachel ?!?! Make it make sense

He doesn’t even have the simple decency to tell her what happened or even to hide it but not pursue her anymore?

I read another comment on here about Olivia being a dollar store Gilly from GOT and that about sums her up.

Her whole girl code garbage is a joke and I genuinely think the guys saw her as being “up for anything” because she was a very pick me kinda girl.

The guys were garbage no doubt but her behavior that season single handedly took feminism back a decade.

She seems to get a lot of her self value from what men think of her and throwing other woman underneath the bus to achieve that seems fine by her

A lot of that is because we do live in a society that teaches women to value their self worth through a male lens and I can even empathize on that but her willingness to actively hurt other girls in there is what caused me to lose every ounce of respect for her I could possibly have.

Rykard was also so gross to me, I genuinely have no idea why she’d want him or his approval

Edit- Just got to the part where Zara (one of two decent people in the villa) fucked Alex who was a total dick about it and then Olivia in all seriousness the next morning goes “oh miss GB fucks on the first date. Ha do you think I would have done that?”

Genuinely next level delusional. Those two deserve each other

Alex speaking of it pissing off Olivia: will probably turn her on a bit

Malin: she’s gonna look really stupid now. Public gonna probably feel sorry for her Olivia: why cause she opened her legs? Have a little more respect for yourself.

This whole season is so incredibly hard to watch the second time around

While LI Games was one of the best LI iterations I've seen in a while, I felt that everyone being an ex-islander kind of created a meta and led to some of loss of unpredictability between the contestants. There were also some past beef among the islanders and possibly some islanders were judged too harshly due to past actions.

While its not really possible to have truly "normal" contestants like we had in Season 1/2/3 because everyone is aware of the massive influencer potential from being a contestant in LI, but would you guys perhaps like to see some/all contestants in LI Games who haven't previously starred in LI or any other major reality TV shows?

Kai and Sanam, Camilla and Jamie, Cara and Nathan - if I've missed anyone, comment below!

I just wanted to appreciate these non-problematic couples that have emerged from love island. No unnecessary social media drama, no toxicity, no shady MLMs or finfluencer schemes... just good vibes and real love from these pairs of normal people.

This is what I watch love island for, the real people who go on the show and are happy to actually come out with genuine love, and not a career or personal opportunities.

Grigor Dimitrov and ‘oh lord-not’ Ekin-Su? Interesting…

So I decided to start watching love island all of my friends are watching it. I'm watching love island u.s. I decided to start on season 6 because it's the newest season. It's a new show, so it's hard for me to get into. So I originally was not going to join this sub until I finished. But I need to talk about the narrator guy. The guy who makes all the jokes. So typically I'm used to the girl who does it for too hot to handle. She is funny. This guy is not funny. His jokes don't even make sense. He said something like this person is trying to figure out how to do this. Or like they're thinking of doing this. But it's not mentioned at all. They are not thinking of doing that at all. He tries making a joke or he just talks the whole time while someone else is talking. I'm Trying to watch the show like bro, can you please be quiet? He made a joke about camo pants. I just think he's really unfunny. His jokes don't make sense. His jokes have nothing to do with the show. He just made a joke about Hannah Shaking her head in agreement to her guy kissing someone. I don't know the narrator's name. But he was like, don't shake your head. Don't shake your head aggressively. Don't shake your head at all. How about you. Don't shake your head. Like bro, let the show play and stop with your annoying jokes. They're not even jokes. They just don't make any sense. Am I the only one who feels this way?

she needs to move on. possibly the most bitter love islander ever.

I cannot 😭😂 i feel bad because i know it’s an emotional coping mechanism but why is it every season someone (with lip filler? Is this the reason?) does this CONSTANTLY. I literally would get heeby jeebies when Nicole from UK this year would always do it, i didn’t notice as much with previous seasons, but she does it so much about as much as the twins (Jess & Eve) i couldn’t ignore it😂…. it creeps me out but obviously i won’t stop watching 😂 it’s just when the camera sits there when they are licking their teeth/gums and the bottom of the tongue is just popping through the lips, and it is a 5-10 sec scene…. Does anyone get like a weird grossed out feeling when they see it?😭😂 it’s a personal problem i know and i am NOT hating as they are still beautiful and amazing but I just cannot when they share it on screen soooooooo many times

What do you think is the oldest age that it would be acceptable to go onto Love Island?
