Brett and Ryan continue to flatline and Rachel and Jose continue to find balance as they discover some differences.The group meet up and we are shocked that Lifetime aired an open discussion about politics. By the end of the episode, Ade isn't feeling Johnny and Tayne isn't feeling Gil. We appreciated Myrla being true to herself. We discuss Napoleon Syndrome, the chemistry between the cast and the disconnect in some conversations and so much more!There's a social media recap on the episode and you can find an Unfiltered + Couples Cam recap episode on our Patreon at www.patreon.com/altarcallmafs.

    Zack has tested positive for Covid and Michaela heads back to Houston and we talk about how we miss their presence especially when the couples meet up for the first time after the wedding. We don't understand Myrla's constant whining as Gil does his best to be positive. We are sure his incessant questions are prodded by the producers.Rachel and Jose continue to surprise us until Jose can't stop calling himself a provider. We enjoy Johnny and Bao profess their life for each other and we disagree a bit on Johnny's reaction to Bao's snoring insecurity. Ryan and Brett are still boring and we try to pay attention to them even though we know they are both putting a lot of effort into keeping it together.We talk some more about the decision for Michaela to go back to Houston, go back and forth on JoRa's financial stances and confused about Bao's "practical lingerie" and we have different stances on the couples meeting each other during the journey.There's a social media recap on the episode and you can find an Unfiltered + Couples Cam recap episode on our Patreon at www.patreon.com/altarcallmafs.

    The couples spend their first night together and get to learn more about each other. 3 and half of the couples are still enjoying each other and we break down each of the couple's first night and next morning recap with each other.We notice how there were no incessant questions about if they consummated their marriage. We cheer on the first couple to do so and appreciate the organic way we were told. We give up on trying to defend Myrla but felt for her and Gil's tragic stories. We also express our annoyance at the producers for having the MC call Michaela down for a dance with her dad.We are still enjoying the pleasant surprise that is Rachel and Jose and Tayne is pleased with how affectionate they are. We are bored with Brett and Ryan and don't think its too soon to say that it's not looking good. We are still on the Johnny and Bao train.As always, there's many more in between like how messy is too messy a la Rachel, is Gil not motivated by money because he doesn't have money? and did Jose really offer to brush Rachel's teeth???

    They're all married now! On this episode, we discuss the remaining weddings and the couples' first night together. We discuss how all the couples give us the feels - well except Brett and Ryan, who seem to just go through the motions. We also notice how she was the only one not carried over the threshold.We discuss how pleasantly surprised we were at Rachel and Jose after our not so great first impression on Jose. Ade enjoyed Rachel's game idea at what we now call the "Champagne Chat" and we both cringe at Rachel saying she asked the experts to match her based on personality not looks.We talk about how this season is 3 for 3, so far, the benefits of diversity as we get to see different cultures and rituals in this season's weddings and Tayne maintains her stance on how people from recent breakups shouldn't risk being cast on the show. We make our predictions on the couples and also talk about that explosive preview.There's a social media recap on the episode and you can find an Unfiltered recap episode on our Patreon at www.patreon.com/altarcallmafs.

    The weddings keep going and this week we see two more of the couples get married. The show continues the good feels with Michaela and Zack's wedding. We can't tell what to expect from these two but we are hoping for success for them. We worry a bit about Hurricane K but Ade can't wait to meet her. We talk about how we thought Zack was about to bow out and how nervous he was that he botched his explanation of what a renaissance man is.We also talk about how the experts will always expert, when they match Myrla with someone who is bald and has a dog - two things she is not particularly fond of. We again worry about Myrla and Tayne can't decide if it's just editing. Gil isn't particularly off the hook as he seems fixated on finances.So far, so good on the season and no audio issues this week!
