Love Is Blind Season 8 has barely made its way onto Netflix, and it is already receiving a lot of criticism from its long-time fans—not because of the dramatic romances or unexpected revelations. Rather, people are criticizing the show's lack of confidentiality due to the flood of spoilers revealed in the first few episodes. Many believe that the cast and producers are giving away too much, ruining the suspense that the show is known for.

Another taste of love, heartbreak, and unexpected turns was promised this season, set against the backdrop of new pods and complicated relationships. Fans, however, feel that the show's appeal has been weakened by the overexposure of significant moments both in the early episodes and online, such as cast activities after filming.

Viewers say they have to avoid spoilers in order to enjoy the show because of Instagram posts that reveal relationship statuses and cryptic captions that give away more than is appropriate.

A Love is Blind posted from his X account,

"I’ve actually never seen so many spoilers ahead of a season prior to this one #loveisblind8 like I know who is going to be a couple, I know who gets married ..so it’s all just boring bc I know what’s gonna happen #LoveIsBlind"

Another viewer of the show wrote,

"I was trying to google Dave from this season of #LoveIsBlind and I think I just saw a spoiler. Ewwww. I'm about to be sick."

A few even called the season "boring" and that it lacked diversity.

An X post read, "When does this new season of #LoveIsBlind get good because I'm sooo bored!!! #LoveIsBlinds8"
A netizen shared, "I saw someone call this season Love Is Bland. This really is the blandest group of yt people I’ve seen. They said fuck DEI lol. All of them felt interchangeable to me and I kept getting them mixed up. #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlind8 #Loveisbland"
"I’ve caught up on all the episodes of #LoveIsBlind and I literally still cannot tell who is who. No idea who is dating who. Why did they cast so many people who look alike?!" another Love is Blind fan complaint.

Who got engaged on Love is Blind Season 8?

Although Love is Blind Season 8 began with great anticipation, viewers' reactions to the couples that formed in the pods have been conflicted. Three engagements have so far caught the attention of viewers and sparked conversations.

One of the first couples to firmly establish their relationship was Taylor Haag and Jared Pierce. Fans cheered them on as they went from heartfelt conversations to a sincere proposal in the pods.

On the other hand, Michael Grant and Lisa Brooks displayed a more subdued dynamic, emphasizing the development of mutual understanding and trust. Fans are curious to watch how their story develops outside of the pods.

Finally, everyone was taken aback by Lauren Taylor and Daniel Hastings' rapid transformation from strangers to fiancés.


Stay tuned to Netflix to know if the newly engaged couples will be able to get past the real world and make it to the aisle. New episodes of Love is Blind will air on February 21.
