The Ultimatum: Queer Love

Gay or straight, Queer or not people can do the dumbest things in a quest for the immortality that television can offer. The premise of the show is that one member of a couple wants to get married the other doesn't. That should really be the end right there. Staying in such a relationship is self defeating behavior. Break it off and get some counseling - OR go on television and show the world.

This is reality television at its - I hesitate to say finest - but most real probably works. It does say something about us as society. Not a good something but something none the less.

Since my mother said to always try to be nice, JoAnna Garcia Swisher in a stunning green gown did manage to keep my attention. Voyeurs will disagree with my assessment and perhaps if you can submit to more than the first episode you will find something of worth - I doubt it.

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.

I liked the show a lot, mainly because there are little to none lesbian reality tv shows.

It was very raw and emotional and represented a lot of real issues of relationships that are very much relatable.

It had an interesting concept, especially since any person could potentially end up with anyone else participating in the show.

I did not like however that almost all the couples consisted of one masc and one fem partner, since this can be a bit of a stereotype, it might be the reality for many lesbian couples but by far not for all.

I also would've preferred a queer woman hosting the show instead of a straight one.

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 can't tell you how often where I contemplate watching a love or dating show but I always back out and never watch anything because it's always a heterosexual show. It's nice to see different into the queer love lives, versus your typical straight show. Once I scrolled and saw the title on Netflix I started to watch it immediately and I was not disappointed it's everything you look for in a dating show, it also keeps you on your toes and constantly predicting the outcome. Thank you to whoever created the Ultimatum Queer Love, I hope that we can continue to see additional seasons in the future!
