Are You the One?

I know it might not be the best to other people, but I like it is something these other reality shows aren't doing. I love drama and cat fights so if you love to entertained I would watch it. Couples being broken up and people getting jealous it's so interesting.

Are You the One is a trashy but weirdly interesting reality dating show. 10 male and 10 female eligible singles are brought to a resort in Hawaii where they live together and attempt to determine, by any means, who is their "perfect match" The matches are preselected by means of a matchmaking process. In each episode the contestants engage in Survivor-style challenges to determine who go on "dates". The other contenstants can then send one of the couples into the "truth booth" to see if they are a perfect match and if they are they get to vacation in the "honeymoon suite". At the end of each episode, the contestants each select a potential match and if the group guesses all 10 correctly, they win a million dollar prize. Usually over a process of elimination (and sometimes soap-opera style romances) the contestants are able to narrow down their perfect matches, but must guess all 10 by the 10th episode to win the prize.

This show has several fatal flaws, the most obvious of which is whether it is possible to have accurate matchmaking at all. Often contestants go into the truth booth thinking they have found their match only to discover that their read was false; at that point they are forced to abandon their love interest in order to continue playing the game. The eventual matches are sometimes rather dubious, and usually by the later episodes the contestants are forced to engage in a complex process of elimination to figure out the matches.

That said, the main entertainment, and it can be entertaining, is watching people fumble around trying to find their match, stumbling from one superficial relationship to another. If they end up having sex with the wrong person, or get caught up in a love triangle, the relations inside the resort can get pretty heated. You can also keep yourself interested by keeping track of the match making, attempting to make your own guesses as to who should be with whom. All in all this is completely mindless television, probably best described a good exemplar of the decay of our modern culture.

I would of been all for some versatility, but they went way too far out there. I kind of watch this show in the back ground mainly just to see some beautiful scenery, so to be nice I'll just say Hawaii is still beautiful can't really say that about anything else though. Not for me at all and I'm pretty sure I won't be the only one that feels this way.

Worst concept ever, because... who cares what happens, all the audience cares about is T & A !!! They really should have included a heavy dose of religion in an early episode to enable the Bible-thumpers to spend their money!

Definitely needs way more diversity!!! All the girls look the same! Even the guys look the same! Season 7 was literally and basically just all skinny, white, and light skins! Being on people who look different.
