Married At First Sight season 17’s reunion rehashed the drama of the Denver cast, but some viewers are saying it felt like an echo chamber in the worst way possible. Married At First Sight season 17 was a flop according to fans, and the cast explained exactly why during their two-part reunion, which revealed some major behind-the-scenes issues. The cast shared that they deceived production throughout the season by pre-planning what they wanted to say and do while they were filming, making the experience effectively inauthentic. The women of MAFS season 17 shared the men were allegedly behind the decision.
“It was like watching an echo chamber of them hyping each other up”
Some Married At First Sight viewers are sharing they felt the reunion wasn’t helpful in getting closure for the difficult season, as it felt like an unpleasant echo chamber. “Every time the girls were shown, it was like watching an echo chamber of them hyping each other up in the most negative way possible,” u/deewayne3 explained on Reddit. “The earlier part of the season there was so much vitriol for the guys from the audience. Now a lot of that talk has quieted given the recent reveals.” Many fans in the comments agreed, sharing their own MAFS reunion takes.
Married At First Sight Contestants Need To Hold Themselves Accountable
Many fans were confounded by the behavior the MAFS season 17 women displayed at the reunion, accusing them of ganging up on their exes for clout.“Yeah, the girls really went full mask off at the reunion. I still don’t think highly of the men. They were immature and they all bailed at the first hint of difficulty,” u/AdamAnderson320 shared, “In spite of all that, the girls’ behavior at the reunion has tanked their optics so hard.” Another user, u/islanderlifergal, shared, “Chloe was by FAR the only grown up, the rest of the women were just an embarrassment.”
While many comments on the MAFS thread agreed that the reunion felt like an uncomfortable echo chamber where the women hoped to place blame onto the guys without much pushback, others argued that everyone on the cast needs to hold themselves accountable. The women of MAFS came to the reunion to set the record straight, but in doing so, refused to take accountability for their behavior. Not only did they make their exes uncomfortable, they often snapped at the host, spoke disrespectfully to the experts, and refused to engage in actual conversations about what happened throughout MAFS season 17.
With Married At First Sight season 17 moving into its final episode, the season will be wrapping up with an update on the Denver cast after they’ve been removed from the MAFS bubble for a while. Though things were difficult throughout the Married At First Sight season 17 reunion, there was a lot of drama that needed space to breathe to resolve itself. With the women of season 17 having come together in order to attack their exes, it’s possible that the drama won’t truly be over the Denver season of Married At First Sight comes to a complete close.
