It's strange isn't it? There does seem to be less hype as 8472 said - not as excited as I thought I would be. Maybe there was more build up in the summer?


My old IT teacher spoke of something called the law of diminishing tongues:

eg: He described it as you drink a coke, the first one taste's really really good. The second one taste's fine but not as good as the first. The third coke starts to taste a bit meh and you start to wish you never opened it. The forth one you are getting sick of it, and it's actually a chore to finish it.

It's the same thing that's going on with Love Island. We're literally being bombarded with them now ..so the experience becomes less fulfilling. We Had love Island in the summer last year, then about 3/4 months later Love Island Australia screened on ITVbe, ...now a few months Later again another series of Love Island back on ITV.

To me, Love Island 2017 was the best one [my first Love Island]
co-incidence?

this is so true, my first one was my favourite also. I think it wouldn't be AS bad if they changed the format a bit, maybe made the winter series 3 weeks and the episodes shorter (because realistically half the episodes are just catch up anyway)

Do you think not as good selection? Or justy wrong time of year and too much work to do? :lol:

Certainly seems to be a lot less hype around.

Last years love Island was really good!! Honestly not sure. I might watch tonights episode.

I just don't like Ollie . The producers need to get him removed from the show

Yeah I’m not even surprised 😭 but it’s mostly because of the animal trophy hunting pictures circulating on Twitter. People are still boycotting the show

I have so many love island related words muted on twitter :rofl:
The twins...I don't like them too much but it would be funny if they liked the same guy and like, beat each other up and started beef. Imagine lmao

I like the villa this year, it's SO nice! Who's your favourite?


I really liked mike in the first episode but then he seemed too happy about being chosen by one of the twins so idk

I forgot her name (shaughna maybe?) seems really funny. I love her reactions lol

Shaughna seems really nice and definitely funny :lol:

She could be one to watch!

Thinking about it, I'm really not keen on the twins :nope:
I'm rooting for Mike and Nas this year!

Really want Nas to couple up with someone who likes him back.

Just quoting in everyone who posted in the Love Island 2019 thread, just in case you're watching and interested :biggrin:

What do you think of the series so far? Who are your favourites?

(Apologies in advance if you were using that thread to talk about how much you don't like the show! Please forgive me :puppyeyes: :lol: )



Spoiler



im loving the personalities like nas shaugna theyre all rlly entertaining. happy ollie's left- a cheat, a trophy-hunter and dabs in the middle of conversations. jess and eve lowkey annoying but theyre good for drama.
