Ryan H. @RyGuy Jun 27 I enjoy watching these Ultimatum show with my girlfriend but the “queer love” added a fun element to an already entertaining show. Much love to Xander! See more Ed 06/28/2023 I was a little hesitant watching "Consensual cheating: the Series" but from the first episode it seemed like the people and production were genuinely trying to form real long-term connections with these people, which I appreciated. I actually made an effort to learn the names, which I don't normally do (advice: Netflix's article was useful for this). I haven't watched any reality dating shows for that reason and because it seems like a participants are always super stereotypical and concerned about intimacy. However, I believe The Ultimatum mitigated that issue. A quote that stood out for me from Rae's Instagram is, "Can we all laugh at the fact that 10 of us went on a reality tv show instead of going to couples therapy?" While I believe the participants definitely got something out of the experience, I feel like there could have been better solutions. For me, the value of watching the show came from the social experiment aspect, kind of like the circle. My takeaways are 1: talk is cheap. I heard a lot of couples repeatedly telling the other, "I love you" but I just couldn't see where they were coming from. 2: three weeks is WAY too short. If a second season with guys came out, I would definitely consider watching it after I have emotionally recharged from this season. The reason I rated this series five stars is because it challenged me and made me think about what a good relationship looks like. ***Spoiler Zone!*** On ultimatum day, I was honestly surprised how many couples stayed together, since I could see various problems in their relationships, communication, and insurmountable compromises that needed to be made. Although, I suppose it makes sense to want to appear your best on TV. I honestly predicted everyone would break up. I thought Yoly and Mal had the best chance of sticking together because of how much growth Mal made and how their communication improved, but alas. I was also worried that Aussie and Sam would break up because of how difficult their communication was at times, but I was pleasantly surprised.

See more Maaike v 05/29/2023 I really like this show, usually I dislike reality tv, but this is super interesting. I am very surprised by all the hate for Vanessa, the ultimatum wasn't her idea, so it makes sense that she doesn't really know what she wants, but she tries to handle it in a positive way. Lexi seems very annoying to me, she is very desperate to get married, but there seems to be little love for the people she want's to get married to. I think she really doesn't care who is going to say yes as long as someone does, so she will choose whoever is most likely to do so. See more Jen W 05/25/2023 Extremely entertaining!!! Lexi is a queen!!! Vanessa is one of the worst people I have ever seen on a reality show. THE SHOW IS WORTH THE WATCH!!!!!! See more Read all reviews
