The Ultimatum: Queer Love

I won't give a review season per season, the first season is good, the second season is good. The first season was to me personally maybe a little less drama, while the reunion episode of season one was way more dramatic than the second season in my humble opinion.

It is easy for us to sit behind the tv and judge everyone, in the meantime how would any of us react. It is also reality tv so in reality we need to keep in mind that all of these things are being edited, as in why do they go out for dinner and drinks and still have those prison-looking metal cups.

There's plenty of straight couple versions as well as international, but I think I'll stick to my queer couples as I think it'll be hard to beat those!

I'm not a fan of reality shows at all, the drama & emotions are usually too over the top & exaggerated for my liking, but I am OBSESSED with this show! I did not expect to get so invested in all the couples & their individual journey of growth. I got really emotional seeing how things evolved throughout the series, following through everyone's discovery of what they want & don't want in a partner. As a queer person myself, I found this show to be one of the best media representation of queer love. And for that I thank the producers & everyone who participated in the show, putting themselves out there so bravely.

Being a fan of Love is Blind and being in between seasons, I was looking for a similar reality show based on relationships, so I thought I would give The Ultimatum: Queer Love a shot. I was hooked from the first episode. I thrive one watching the way people react to one another. The way each relationship is different and the growth. Of course I also love the drama involved. That is what we are here for.

Regardless, watching the dynamics of the couples is fascinating. This show feels very real and not as scripted as other 'relationship' reality shows I have watched in the past. I hope we get another season.

I'm not into reality shows, but a while ago I somehow ended up watching the Ultimatum hetero version of this. I thought it was absolute trash, with a lot of unstable narcissisticaly inclined participants. However, these lesbians ring truer somehow. This feels more balanced and (most of) the participants seem less unhinged. Although I'll never quite understand what drives people to share such personal stuff on camera with the world entire, it feels like their motives for participating aren't merely a narcissistic thirst for attention. They're quite funny at times too.

As a guilty voyeuristic pleasure, this was entertaining.

The Ultimatum earns 8 bags of popcorn. Absolutely gripping and worth binge watching.

There's highs, there's lows, there's a Vanessa and stainless steel cups. If you love reality tv and couples drama then you'll love this show.

I wasn't expecting to get so caught up in these individuals' lives, but by the end of episode 1 I knew all their names and already had my opinions about who should be with who and who should leave who.

The structure of the show is great. You get a good introduction to the couples but then are quickly thrown into their new relationships. By the time they go back to their original partner, it feels like they've each gone through a genuine experience and there's this incredible tension that you can't wait to see resolved.

Grab your favorite stainless steel cup and enjoy these relationships develop and break and stengthen over the course of The Ultimatum.
