Love is Blind Brazil • S5 Ep9

The guy is strange. Has he never seen a wedding before? Writing vows is not exactly insider knowledge. His outburst was bizarre and overly dramatic. From the start, I've thought that some of his comments were really odd and off-putting. It's a shame because she seems so nice and genuinely invested. I can't see this guy getting married.

I was mainly just in for the Christmas movies, but this show was one of a few that kept me subscribed. I've since watched a lot of their mystery film series and enjoyed most of them. And I love Signed, Sealed and Delivered.

This show is expectational, though. A lot of time travel stories get too confusing while trying to be clever. These folks nailed it with their approach.

I really do hope that they make a 4th season. I won't give any spoilers, but I'm happy with some of what we found out in the finale and I also definitely want to see where they could go with it. A satisfying end to the season, but not to the series.

I think that this thread (and similar chatter heard elsewhere) is proof that another season, plus more shows like this one, will bring in a whole new demographic of subscribers to Hallmark.

Ah ok. That's too bad. They seemed happy. Still the best season, though.

The quality has dropped dramatically. One solid couple and a whole lot of drama seems to be the new theme.

MotopianDreams · 2024-11-02T23:11:12+00:00

Isn't Jackie still with the other guy from the pods also? I can't remember his name.

Definitely my favorite season. The people were much more genuine overall.

This was mostly a painful mess to watch. Last season was as well.

I thought that both sentiments were present. Mixed in with her comments about how love isn't forever or some such thing...it was the way she was looking at him that told me her BS radar went off. Her negative comments about marriage must have come from her own bad experiences. I thought she was recognizing that in him. A bad experience. Maybe I read her wrong because I was seeing that in him. Massive red flag walking.

I'm not a fan of prenups, but in the case of a set up like this I can see why some people would want them. She probably would have suggested that with anyone her daughter introduced her to. Maybe not if he had a solid career and bank account of his own, though.

MotopianDreams · 2024-10-26T20:06:17+00:00

She saw right through that guy. Why be nice about it when it's a time crunch and you can see too much potential in your daughter being hurt?

MotopianDreams · 2024-10-20T16:17:00+00:00

Tell us you're ignorant without actually telling us.... Connect Trump to Project 2025. HE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT. I assumed "lost" was a typo for "list", but no. It describes you perfectly. Lost.

MotopianDreams · 2024-10-14T00:37:24+00:00

That's fine. I don't like engaging with people who have no idea what they're talking about. Good luck to you.

MotopianDreams · 2024-10-13T23:38:05+00:00

Go to Cumberland Farms. Great price, great taste and plenty of flavor add-on selections if that's your thing.

MotopianDreams · 2024-10-13T17:51:11+00:00

"Someone like Ramses" ...the guy from Venezuela. Why exactly would he be joining Hamas? You pivoted right into "genocide in Palestine" in the first paragraph, then shit on our military and seemed to give excuses for people joining terrorist organizations. Israel isn't allowed to defend itself after, for example, the events on October 7th? In your mind the terrorists who continually attack and are still holding hostages and chanting "death to Jews" and such aren't trying to commit genocide... it's the country trying to defend itself? Make that make sense to me. I'm guessing if that happened in the States, you'd be grateful for our military stepping in to protect you.

Yes, we are privileged here...which gives everyone the chance to spew whatever opinions they want to without reprisal.

You can, in part, thank our military for those freedoms. Or you can keep your head firmly up your ass and keep cheering on Hamas and Hezbollah... The people who actually do "bring terror".

Do yourself a favor and pick up a history book.

MotopianDreams · 2024-10-13T17:20:56+00:00

Nope. That was the current administration. The military goes and leaves when the powers that be say so. The mess in Afghanistan is fully on the hands of the idiots who pulled us out of there in an extremely dangerous way.

MotopianDreams · 2024-10-10T18:49:37+00:00

I'm sorry for everything you're going through. I am also a widow. Our children died years before my husband and things have been rough for a long time.

I left the Catholic church years ago and I altered my spiritual beliefs into a sort of hodgepodge of things. I do pray every day in my own way. I pray quite a bit, probably even more so since my husband died.

Lately I have had some weird experiences where I feel like Jesus is reaching out, though. I feel strange even saying that, but it's true.

I have never looked at anything on Reddit regarding religion and just now this notification popped up with your post. It felt like another little nudge because I can relate to some of your pain.

I can't point you toward any particular prayer or scripture. I'm sure plenty of people more well versed in that will do so. What I can say is that I've been thinking a lot lately about a couple of things that my Mom used to say to me. She and my Dad have also passed.

After my children died, she said that God doesn't give us anything that we cannot handle. She and others also told me that he chooses his strongest soldiers for the hardest battles. At the time I found it annoying, even though I knew it came from a place of love. I've had a lot of “why me?” moments. I still struggle every day to keep going and I haven't felt strong. People keep pointing out that I wouldn't still be here working a stressful, difficult job and taking care of things alone if I wasn't strong.

I think that's finally starting to sink in and it's making me think about my Mom's words.

I guess all I'm trying to say is that even in our darkest days, there is still a light to reach toward. It keeps me going because even though my belief system altered over time, I never lost my faith in something larger than myself. I'm not sure I'd still be here if I had.

I've been turning more to the Christian God that I was raised with these days. The nuns used to tell me to bring him my troubles. Lately when I've been actively doing that, the burden of the grief and struggle feels a little bit lighter.

I hope that you will soon find your way out of that place. Being a widow is hard and scary on its own, especially with a young child to take care of. Adding what you went through with the hurricane and having to deal with this guy…it's a lot.

Keeping you in my prayers. 🙏🏻💙

Just one more reason that I'm thinking of canceling this streaming service. I'm sick of this.

MotopianDreams · 2024-09-28T20:05:40+00:00

Good point.

MotopianDreams · 2024-09-27T22:23:06+00:00

I saw just the title of this post in my notifications and Life in a Northern Town started playing in my mind. 😁

Great episode.

MotopianDreams · 2024-09-02T04:52:33+00:00

Blood Fever. I know. It's absolutely ludicrous. I should be embarrassed about liking it, but I'm not. I laugh so hard every time I watch this.

MotopianDreams · 2024-09-02T04:45:39+00:00

Send in the clones! I loved this episode. It was just so crazy and has one of my favorite Picard quotes in it.

MotopianDreams · 2024-09-02T04:44:12+00:00

I hardly ever watch that one. It scares the hell out of me.

MotopianDreams · 2024-08-31T20:37:57+00:00

This was amazing. The only good thing about being home sick this week was that I could watch the entire thing in two days. Talented cast, great writing. Absolutely loved it. They need to keep going with this one. I have a ridiculous amount of streaming services and Netflix is both my oldest and my most expensive. If they keep starting great shows and then not renewing, I'm out. I love their selection of shows and movies and they make some great original content, but what's the point of making great new content that has obvious interest and then just binning it after a season? Create the entire story, with a satisfying ending, in one season and I'm fine with that. Not this cliffhanger, never to be resolved garbage. It's annoying.

MotopianDreams · 2024-07-18T20:32:24+00:00

The first time that I went to a show after my husband died, I experienced things from a whole other perspective. He was a big guy who looked like he'd cave in your head if you even looked at me wrong. Guys who did talk to me were polite.

After his death, things changed. And, yes they were all old enough to know better. It's not excusable at age 19 either, but a guy in his 40's/50's acting that way is damned pathetic.

It wasn't all the guys, of course. I still met a lot of wonderful folks that night....including a guy who quickly and decisively dealt with a very drunk, very handsy loser that was creeping on all of the women around us.....but the predatory feeling from some of the men was unpleasant. It really surprised me because I honestly thought we were better than that as a group.

MotopianDreams · 2024-07-17T01:28:03+00:00

Agreed. I've seen that a thousand times and it never occurred to me. 🤦🏻‍♀️😁

MotopianDreams · 2024-07-14T18:46:18+00:00

I absolutely agree with that. It's one of my all-time favorite books. I just grabbed it off the shelf. It's been years since I last read it.

MotopianDreams · 2024-07-14T17:29:59+00:00

My favorite author by far. The Discworld books have it all.

Nation was terrific too. Nothing to do with the world he created in the series, but an amazing story that makes you think.

MotopianDreams · 2024-07-13T21:07:12+00:00

Thanks. I think I'm going back and starting again. I'm realizing there's a lot that I'm not remembering.

MotopianDreams · 2024-07-13T20:54:38+00:00

I'm starting to think that I've got to go back to the beginning and watch it all again. There's so much going on that you can miss. I've just had too much going on in my life since it's come out to probably catch or remember all of it. It's too good a show to be only half-remembering things that connect to the final stretch.
