Love is Blind

For the past few years it has been difficult for me to watch reality television without thinking that it is totally ridiculous. For a while I thought I was being too critical, so as instructed, I decided to watch reality TV and tried to suspend my disdain. But, after watching the first 10 minutes of Love is Blind, I am convinced that these shows are just as terrible as I believed them to be. Love is Blind is a Netflix Original Reality TV Show where folks blindly get engaged and married to someone they haven't seen to impede outside bias to dictate their choices.

Outside of the grueling hour-long runtime, I cringed at the contestants professing their love to each other after thirty minutes. With an awkward amount color-blind rhetoric attached to it, I couldn't get pass episode one. At the end of the day, I realized that reality TV have their own very specific and didactic agendas that dismisses it from reality all together. It provides a cringe-worthy experience for most folks that could see through the facade. 

Check out the trailer, I swear it's as bad as it sounds.
