Featured reviews
I sat down to watch this with a friend for us both to laugh at the contestants for the first episode and find something more meaningful to do with our time after that. As we finished watching the first episode we both knew it was utter crap and probably a waste of time but despite knowing this we continued to the next episode, we spent 12 hours of our lives that night and subsequently every episode since then wondering why we were watching this horrific yet addictive pile of excrement. The thing with it is that the producers have realised what they are making and unlike all others of its kind have steered into it.
While others site us to watch X-Factor / The Voice / Britain's Got Talent and other such garbage I would honestly cancel all 3 of those shows for another season of Love Island right away. In the episode featuring 12 idiotic young adults attempting to care for plastic children I have probably laughed more times than collectively across all the "mature comedy" on TV nowadays.
The plain raw humanity of the show ridiculed by the producers is comedic and dramatic gold and I have thoroughly enjoyed my viewing. I'd advise new viewers to give the first episode a go. If they don't like it (like the vast majority of the other "unbias" reviewers of this program) then don't watch it.
Please note this is a review of Season 4 only.

TV shows like this id say is one of the main reasons why I now watch most of my things online instead of on an actual TV. I just don't get it. I can't see whats so entertaining about whatching a bunch of people who care about nothing else apart from their own vanity and stabbing each other in the back. One of the things I find most shocking about Love Island is that it had more applicants than Oxford University.
This show is absolutely appalling and diabolical, it should be axed immediately for the good of British television and society. With multiple contestants engaging in substance abuse, developing depression and committing suicide due to the extremely dangerous , exploitative and deeply poisonous effects of this bane, this show is pure evil. The show itself is of abysmally poor quality; it is nothing more than a depressingly narcissistic and spiteful dating show, with no interesting or redeeming qualities whatsoever.
All the contestants are shallow, conceited, desperate, mean-spirited, fame hungry losers who have no real talent or skills in life, but simply desire to be famous and earn money for participating in this trash. The contestants treat other horribly and the challenges themselves encourage nasty behaviour, meaning the show promotes bullying. All the female contestants are treated particularly poorly and abusively by their male "love interests", as well as being exploited and objectified sexually, which is incredibly misogynistic and sexist.
This shows promotes narcissism, laziness and poor moral values among its gullible audience, in particular young people, who would rather aspire to be reality TV stars on terrible reality TV shows, rather than achieve academically or pursue professional career paths. Someone needs to finally incinerate this festering, unholy plague before this infectious virus spreads any further throughout society, with fire to reduce to smoke and ash, which is what it truly deserves. Perhaps once this show has been destroyed, ITV can start producing more intelligent and sophisticated television for viewers to watch, rather than having their brains rotted into mush from watching this utterly diseased bile.

Dumbed down TV so beloved of governments. Made by morons, performed by talentless wannabes, watched by the lowest common denominator. Utter bilge, like all the other reality programmes, Towie, Made in Chelsea etc., etc.
The reality gravy train marches on for the brain cell impaired, and does nothing to inform or entertain.
This type of programme is the reason for the dumbing down of mainstream TV.
I cannot abide such mind numbing rubbish and really wish it could be stopped.
Alas, it will not, as long as it makes money. This to the detriment of good, informative and entertaining shows which are cancelled, upsetting fans that have followed closely.
