Love Island (2015– )
4/10
Just go watch something else, anything.

Look, if you're going to watch something in English with a comedic narrator and some exaggerated "romantic" drama and a bunch of conventionally attractive people, you might as well watch Kaguya-Sama: Love is War. Why? Because at least there it makes sense for the people to be dramatic - they're teenagers, their emotional intensity levels that go from 1-10 are somehow cranked up to thirteen and they're supposed to navigate a topic they might not have given much thought to earlier on in their lives. Plus these people go through development and it's actually fun to watch. Here the narrator has to do all the work for this show to be entertaining at all. I feel like people who watch this watch it because they really can't think of a single other show they could be watching with their brain turned off... in which case, I feel kind of bad for them.

And let's not forget that this show creates unrealistic expectations and several participants in the making of this have committed suicide. I think it's best that a show like this never gets made again for everyone, because asides from not being particularly entertaining it's also toxic. I have no idea how it got so many views but please, to anyone who hasn't watch it yet, save yourself the trouble.
