Are You The One?

October 8, 2015 by tamaratattles 17 Comments

Are You The One

I’ve mentioned this show before and it gets little traction here but I am kind of obsessed with Are You The One? Which is currently airing its third season on MTV.  It’s a dating show and a game show all at once.  They supposedly do psychological assessments on a bunch of twenty somethings and come up with what they believe to be ten promising couples.  Twenty kids go in the house looking for the one person they have been secretly matched with. Right away girls get themselves all worked out that the first guy that pays them any attention is THE ONE.  Each week, one couple is selected by the gang to go to the TRUTH BOOTH where they will be told whether or not they are a match. If they are, they are moved out of the house to get intimate in a private location for the rest of the game.

At the end of each episode, either the guys or the gals pick a partner (it alternates every week) and everyone matches up with someone and they reveal how many correct matches they have.  If they get all ten matches, the split a million dollar pot. This season, if they get no matches correct, they automatically lose $250,000 from the possible pot. That happened on the second episode. This sent a ton of couples who are sure they are going to be together forever to have to start dating other people. Much crying and thrashing about on the floor while screaming that life is not fair ensues. Couples who refuse to leave the person they think is their soul mate are ostracized.

Maybe I am just not explaining this properly but I love the show. This season, they actually have a guy on the show that understands basic math and probabilities. But no one will listen to him. It’s all quite amusing.

Are You The One Airs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. on MTV. I know that is a tough time slot, but they air the show again several times later in the night.  Am I the only one watching this? My DVR started with a the end of Teen Mom, so I don’t know how many matches they got last night. I’m off to Google!

    I’m not watching it. Although I should seeing as they are incorporating these people into the Challenges now! Last challenge that added them and I had no clue who they were or any kind of back story. Although I guess it’s nothing new because I also don’t watch real world anymore so i never know the new casts from that show who go to the challenge!!
    I’m worried my challenge days may soon be over because all the people I like and root for are slowly moving on from their challenge days . Sigh…..

    I watch this too Tamara. If you hadn’t posted this I would have kept it my dirty little secret. Lol Bunch of hypocrites is right! It’s ridiculous how many of them are sobbing over someone they just met a couple of weeks ago. One or two I could see (as on previous seasons), but this many of them??? Should make for a good, drama filled season.

    My secret trash tv viewing is ‘ex on the beach’. So trashy, so obsessed.

    I’ve watched this show before (hides face). I’ve got it programmed for tonight at 11:00 p.m. so you’ve got lori and I watching with you. I’d love to see like 8 lights come on at the same time and them have to try to figure out which two couples are wrong lol. You know none of the couples would want to be the wrong ones.

    I started watching this with season 2. Really enjoying it. But I think I liked season 2 more than this season so far. That said, I did enjoy watching the host ream out that 1 girl at the matchup ceremony.

    I’ve been into this show since the first season. Its my teeny bopper guilty pleasure. I’ve pretty much stopped watching the challenges since I don’t know who any of the RW people are anymore. (H/E I do know enough to remember that it was Knight who was on the show with Diem who also passed away)

    It is hilarious how worked up the get into these people that they met less than a week ago. They’re crying, cussing, and fussing. In the end they are just looking for the right person to put their hand on an iPad with. They can keep doing but playing out the equations. I’m even one of the lames that keep spreadsheets trying to figure out who the matches are.. lol! Now that would be a fun game to play here.

        Yes, her cancer was apparently untreatable. She collapsed during filming and IIRC had to be flown home. Knight also died shortly after they filmed. Overdose.

    I’m watching TT, they got three lights. I’ve watched since season 1. And I like this show because of the competitions and I like watching crazy people, who fall for the first person that seem attractive to them. I’m watching thinking did these people come to win money or just hookup. Every year the couples do the same thing, I think adding the twist of losing 250000 if they don’t get any matches was a good idea.

    The show is to young for me and crying girls/women are a complete channel changer for me.

    I do miss the sleeping, did not say sex, and waking up with someone but not enough to to cry over a guy I had no real investment in.

    I need to find a 2 weekend a month guy.
