Is The Perfect Match Worth Watching?

 Disclaimer: The content mentioned may contain spoilers for the Netflix show "The Perfect Match"

The Perfect Match is a Netflix TV show where individuals enter a villa and try to form romantic connections. These individuals are previously featured on other Netflix shows (The Circle, Love Is Blind, Too Hot To Handle, etc.). They are tested as a couple in “compatibility challenges” and the reward is a private date and they get the power to introduce two new people into the villa. This show is similar to Bachelor in Paradise and Love Island.

Personally, I do not believe this show is worth watching, and here are the reasons why:

  1. 90% of the couples on the show did not have a genuine connection. Maybe it was the show edit but it did not seem like enough time to truly find your ”perfect match.” 
  2. I also found it weird that the show made the contestants room with their matches that they just met that day. Maybe I’m old fashion, but I would find it extremely awkward to sleep next to a stranger. I also feel the rooming situation cut off a lot of potential connections that could have formed because that person is already “claimed.”
  3. I thought the “compatibility challenges” were a joke. There was a challenge where sponges were glued to the contestant’s gentiles and the goal was to get as much water into a water jug without using your hands. How does squeezing out sponges make you compatible?

If you are not necessarily interested in the love connections and are more into iconic villain moments, well this is the show for you! Francesca from Too Hot To Handle and Bartise from Love Is Blind continue to show their villain personas throughout the show.
