The very premise of the show is a relationship lottery from which the majority beneficiaries of are the expert panel, the media company and on a rare occasion the individuals.
It portrays the image of science equalling love but yet we have seen some awful matches and very little love.
On the up side there are the fortunate ones but ... Is the science consistently correct.... No is offcourse the answer because science cannot account for physical attraction and connection.
I question the integrity of the panel as there portrayal does not always relate to them being professional relationship experts based on their comments/responses.
I watched season 6 and for them to decide to make a complete mockery of the show and ignore their own science, being the very premise of the show in which they allowed inviduals from differing couples to get together is a mere statement of actually how important their show is as opposed to the science and/or couples.
In my opinion the fact is that the majority of couples fail and they are simply playing with people's lives and feelings, all for fame, money and publicity ratings and viewer numbers.
Yes it is their choice to participate but I feel the show let's them down immensely.
The format needs a complete overhaul, if indeed not completely terminated.

Season 6 of MAFS Australia is perfect brainless, trash reality TV and for this reason it has to be awarded the full 10 stars.
All the ingredients are present - tears, laughter, love, anger, resentment, extreme humiliation and sexy, scantily clad bodies, edited for maximum effect and set against the beautiful backdrop of Australia.
The clearly generally emotionally dysfunctional 'contestants' are expertly exploited and often matched with completely incompatible partners, to provoke maximum tension and drama.
This is the modern, digital equivalent of an Victorian freak show. It's like that car crash that you drive past that you can't help slowing down to look at. It's absolutely fantastic.

I started watching the series due to my liking for the British version and found that this is completely different. For the first few episodes I loved the show and looked forward to watching it of an evening but when I was 15 episodes into a 25 episode series (90 mins per show) I was sick of the amount of recaps of things I'd seen 1000 times before, and trailers for moments that turned out to be anti-climactic at best. I was so sick of the dinner parties and commitment ceremonies and there wasn't enough air time for the likeable and genuine couples.
To be honest, I could be one of the experts if I state the obvious after something happens between a couple.
It's just so funny to watch this horrible people do horrible things to each other and the experts are just always there to cause more drama - the most funny thing about it is that the 'experts' are presented as some sort of therapist that are suppose to match these people perfectly and help the couples later on but they do the exact opposite of it.. lmfao.
Don't take this show seriously, shut your brain down after a work day and LOL!
