Review of Love Island

Love Island (2019– )
3/10
Should be called 'Like Island'
7 December 2021
"Like do you like like me or like do you like the new girl?"... "It's like not that like I dont like you because like I do like you, but like..." Brace yourself, if you plan on watching this show, to hear a whole lot of conversations just like that! I don't even know how these people find the time to actually get to know each other with how much they say the word 'like'. Must take ages. And watching them make out is disgusting. I dont mind a bit of PDA but every kiss is turned into an attempt at a porn audition. Nobody wants to see full on tongues flailing and slobber flying. It's not sexy or passionate it's nasty. In my final thought, the narrator on this US version is dreadfully annoying and not a single bit funny. I wouldn't expect him to live up to Ian from the British version, who is hilarious, but this guy is a complete joke, and I'm not talking about his jokes. I like the British version of Love Island, but we can add this to the long list of British shows that the US attempts to remake that's nowhere near as good.... Shameless, The Office, Skins, Inbetweeners, Outnumbered, Fawlty Towers, even Ex On the Beach, and there's about 100 more.... If you're American like me, but have only seen the US version of these shows you are seriously missing the plot!
