Jewish Matchmaking

I have to say that I really enjoyed Jewish Matchmaking the series and hope that we are blessed with another season. I found the whole process as much entertaining as educational. It was fascinating learning about all the different types of Jewish people, and what they wanted for their life and what they expected in a partner. This show definitely covers a wide range of people looking for love. I managed to binge the whole series in one evening and actually felt disappointed that it was ending.

Aleeza is absolutely amazing. I'm not Jewish, but if I was single I'd want her batting for me. Her out look on love was really lovely, and the obvious care she took with her clients was remarkable.

My only gripe about this show is basically what everyone else is saying. They don't follow through. I'm stuck here now, never knowing what happened to any of the singles involved in the show. Will they be back if there is a season 2, will I see some outcomes? I hate being left hanging. I think the last episode should have jumped ahead 6 months and given us an update on each of the singles, I would have been left feeling very satisfied then.

Apart from that, if you love matchmaking shows, then you will love this one and Aleeza.

Translation: "we" will do what *I* want. Some good lessons here on what not to look for in a partner. When something horrible happens during your marriage do you think it's going to matter whether your partner is cute or has blue eyes? Hopefully you will want, and be, a partner who helps the other one to get through the problem And come through it stronger than you were before. Has another reviewer said this is about the same level as Indian matchmaking, spoiled kids who never learned about compromise, selflessness, etc. They seem to be sincere in wanting to get married, just completely clueless on what that involves.

Aleeza and her husband are really fun but once again Netflix stomps all over the desire of the audience to actually see relationships form and last and instead choose a cast that are so full of self-absorbed immature spoilt brat behaviour that they have no change of creating a healthy relationship.

Same issue as Indian matchmaking, Love is Blinds MAFS and so many tedious others - there is zero change of success and we are watching a turd of meaningless chauvinistic drama portraying partners as self-objects only with totally unrealistic expectations. Bah Humbug. Put the charming hosts to work with genuine couples - pretty please.

Interesting show. Vapid but I appreciated the diversity displayed within the Jewish communities. I have always been aware of the degrees of diversity within the Jewish culture but didn't realize the degree of difference in all parts of their lives.

My biggest issue is that we got to superficially meet each person and saw a date or two with them and their matches then, poof they were gone.. it looks like the matchmaker was a flop.

I'd like to see a success or two. I'm sad Fay and Shaya didn't click.

My favorite part was the older couples and their stories. Their advise and encouragement for the younger ones!

Aleeza is more than caring and compassionate and insightful; she rightly understands that a lot of ppl who remain single need to adjust their approach to dating or their worldview in some way...IF they want to not only get married, but as she says, make a marriage work. The segment with her and her family is the most authentic bit of the entire series, and gives away her qualifications as a shadchanit. That said the producers do not let us see that, as there is no follow through months later on any of the couples. I was shocked that the repugnantly arrogant dude in LA living with his parents whose only demand was that she be a blonde blue-eyed 10 (while being a Moroccan, Hebrew-speaking Israeli - even his friends pointed out his lack of logic), the never-Kansas-girl and the 51 yo eccentric Chicagoan seemed most likely to have really matched. If these 3 worked out, then Aleeza can find a match for ANYONE. Get her better production for S2 - and we'll be watching.
