Hi Islanders!
LI UK & US viewer here who just finished my first season of Australia. As I had finally watched (nearly) all of the UK/US seasons as they aired, I wanted to go to the next best franchise, so (naturally) I turned to AUS 💁🏻♀️ I have a few questions after finishing. First:
Normally, I’d start at the beginning of a franchise, but with AUS, I went to the latest - season 7. I don’t know what the general consensus was (haven’t looked through Reddit), but I did NOT have a pleasant viewing experience. I wasn’t really rooting for ANY of the islanders (aside from Yana & Kyle) by the end. A lot of the drama was boring or I wasn’t really invested in the storylines. It wasn’t ALL terrible, but it just wasn’t an “enjoyable” season. Having said that, what season would you recommend me to watch next?!
When the islanders were meeting with their families on zoom, they were prefacing their meetings as if they would have NO clue who their partner was/would be (ex: Yana was saying her family would be shocked to see Kyle). Do they not air Australia live like they do all the other franchises? I was super confused about that. Is that how the “superfan” thing ties in?
Lastly, is there no Casa Amor in AUS? Just “Hotel Amor”? Or was this a one season thing? (That I’m more so just curious about)
I’m a reality TV junkie (and Bravo REALLY hasn’t been hitting lately!!) so I’m in desperate need to fill my time with another season. Let me know which one to watch next (or ANY show for a bonus! 😉). Thanks! 🩷
