  1. MAFS: 25 Broken People

    Well… Married At First Sight is over for another year. So what are we expected to do with our lives now? In an explosive finale episode that took approximately 7 years to air on our televisions, we got to see all the couples discover exactly how much they now hate each other and who’s been...

  2. MAFS: The Cheating Court Is Back In Session

    With only a few days left until the explosive finale of award-winning documentary series Married At First Sight, we’re on the edge of our seats.

  3. MAFS: The Accidental Break Up

    Well, we’re definitely at the pointy end of the season now and Married At First Sight has never been so deliciously dramatic. This week, best friends Hayley and Stacey were reunited and got on like a house on fire…. Not. Plus, Ivan had gossip that he absolutely wouldn’t reveal so instead…

  4. MAFS: The Show That Stops For No One

    Married At First Sight stops for no one… especially not a global pandemic. Regardless of what’s going on, MAFS will continue to be our dose of weeknight trash, that serves as a reminder of all that is good in the world. This week, Jonethen tries to leave the experiment for the third time and...

  5. MAFS: "The Big Fat Sex Lie"

    Sometimes we think MAFS couldn’t possibly get juicier but then it turns around and surprises us. This week, Ivan called out the experts after he’d had enough of their intimacy questions. And all we’d like to say is...Trish, we told you so. Speaking of Ivan, he was absolutely heartbroken when…

  6. MAFS: The New Couples No One Asked For

    So we’re almost halfway through this season of MAFS and can’t decide if we want to look away now or forever hold our peace.

  8. MAFS: One Bride Down, Nine To Go

    Last week on MAFS we were privileged to witness the first dinner party and this week, well...the bar was raised as Hayley stepped in to offer her services as the show’s fourth expert. And it’s not surprising things got heated with everything that happened this week... Amanda proved she doesn’t...

  9. MAFS: We've Got Our First Dinner Party Injury

    It’s been another whirlwind week on the award-winning documentary series Married At First Sight. Ivan is the first person we’ve ever met who doesn’t know how to pronounce his own name. He’s also super rude to his mother, who just wants to play the piano and sing her heart out on national TV....

  10. MAFS: When You Realise On Your Honeymoon That You Hate Your Wife

    Married At First Sight is back for another season of poorly-matched couples trying not to claw each other’s eyes out in the pursuit of love.

  13. The Bachelor: Moon Baths and Bitter Rivalries

    It's official. The ick factor in the mansion has hit an all-time high and Rachel, Keryn and Renny are not impressed. After a few too many close-up pash sessions, finger-licking chocolate dates and foot rub antics, it seems that this seasons' romancing has taken a turn for the cringe. It's safe to...

  14. The Bachelor: Plan B and The Dark Horse

    Rachael gets the boot after she's been caught sneaking around with a crew member and it's left Matt salty and his trust broken. But was the controversy another typical staged moment at Bach HQ? Or when the cameraman gets involved, is it the real deal? Plus, it wouldn't be a week in the mansion...

  15. The Bachelor: Bachie Baths And Best Friends

    If looks could kill, we're pretty sure Abbie would be in A LOT of trouble right now. She's doing everything she possibly can to win Bachie Matt's heart...
