Any decent characters this season? Watched the last few but not bothered this time around.

Fun fact: MAFS Australia went some way to rescuing my relationship.

So basically, watching MAFS while she was away and I saw that these people (mainly the blokes, but some of the women as well) were all absolute morons who had no idea how to form or maintain functional relationships and, while appreciating these were all picked to make good telly, there was no way I was going to head down that path. Pathetic as it sounds, also genuinely took on board some of the stuff the experts said about taking on more responsibility and being proactive and thought "hmm, could be doing a bit better here, PJ".

When she got back after about a week she mentioned she'd noticed a massive difference and I had to just say "please don't kill me cos I know you've tried having these conversations before and it's ridiculous, but it's down to MAFS". Fortunately she found it pretty hilarious and, Dear Reader, three years on we're still doing alright.

Cracked open the wine, bit of meditation, blended a smoothie and invited my younger brother round.

Thirded. Would never have checked this out if not for the recommendations on here but very glad this was flagged up. A wonderful film and, as CD said, riveting.
