Married at First Sight Australia Season 4: Nick, Sharon Still Married; What About Sean And Susan


Married at First Sight Australia Season 4 gets to the interesting part of the season. After weeks of trying to ascertain whether the couples want to stay married or not, viewers will finally know their decision.

Nick And Sharon Stays Committed


The social experiment has come to an end. Married at First Sight Australia Season 4 couples need to decide their fate. MAFS couple Nick and Sharon were the first to be featured. According to The Sydney Morning Herald, the 31-year-old Michelle and the 30-year-old carpenter had a rocky start in the season.

The outlet notes that Sharon had some trust issues in her last few days with Nick. The business owner consulted her group of friends about her dilemma. They all agreed that “not being able to trust a chap was a deal breaker.”

Meanwhile, Nick had a session with his own set of friends about the upcoming ceremony. One of his mates strongly warned Nick that it is still too early to use the L word. On the day of the vow renewal ceremony, Nick and Sharon meet face-to-face.

Nick told his social experiment wife to give him a chance to prove that he is the kind of husband that will complement her life through “trust, loyalty, and understanding.” Moreover, he defied his friend’s advice and told Sharon that he loves her.

Sharon, on the other hand, started her vows recognizing their “strong physical and emotional chemistry.” The 31-year-old kept everyone in suspense with her "however." In the end, she said, “And you, Nick Furphy, have my heart.”

Congratulations!

Will Sean And Susan Renew Their Vows? 


Meanwhile, Married at First Sight viewers waits patiently for farm boy Sean and city girl Susan’s turn at the ceremony. Mail Online reported that the 37-year-old Susan shocked her social experiment husband with her reply to his honest box question.

Sean asked whether Susan can see herself living on a farm with him. Susan replied with “I’m actually going to give it a go after this.” Moreover, Susan told Sean that she sees a future with the farmer.

Are they destined to be together?
Married at First Sight Australia Season 4 viewers saw the instant chemistry between farm boy Sean and city trucker Susan. Unfortunately, the major roadblock in their relationship was location. Sean lives in a farmland in Queensland while Susan lives in the city.

However, they both agreed to continue with the experiment. Based on their actions, it seems the wonders of science worked for them. Wonder what will they say on their renewal vows? We can’t wait too! Married at First Sight Australia Season 4 has four episodes left before they air their season finale episode.

Amazed With The Contestants of ABC's The Bachelor Series


While I was writing my news piece for the day, I chance upon this tweet from People EW Network where they posted a short interview of The Bachelor Season 21 winner Vanessa Grimaldi and Nick Viall.

I was not consistently updated with Nick's season. However, whenever I get the chance, I watch it online or read articles about him and the updates of his season. When the first episode was aired, I tried watching it close to its real-time release. The girls were all hopeful that their first introduction to Nick will make them stay for at least a few episodes.

I tried putting myself in their shoes and I know I can't do it. I don't think I have the energy to compete with 30 girls to get one guy's attention. However, I still watched it because I am intrigued to see how Nick can develop that "special connection" with the girls.

Every week, I read the news on who gets eliminated and based on my recollection (even if it was a few episodes prior to the rose ceremony) I realized that the girls, who went home that night, did not have that connection with Nick.

Finally, after eight weeks, he chooses between Raven Gates and Vanessa Grimaldi. Eventually, Nick chooses Vanessa (I hate it when Reality Steve is always right about The Bachelor - ugh).

In that particular interview, Vanessa admits that it was difficult for her at first to understand the concept of one guy having feelings for a lot of girls, yes girls. The Special Education Teacher said that rather than focus her energy on who Nick was spending time with, she decides to focus on what she feels for him and vice versa.

Vanessa explaining herself while Nick looks on

With that kind of attitude, she was able to concentrate on making sure that he picks her from the rest. To be quite honest, The Bachelor or the upcoming The Bachelorette is a very tricky reality show. As I always say, I am amazed at the ladies and men who join this reality show.

Their ability to accept the competition and be friends with them as well. I will probably have a mind over heart battle all the time! Now that The Bachelor Season 21 ended, I am looking forward to seeing how Rachel Lindsay's (my personal favorite for Nick, if I can choose) season will turn out.

Netflix Love Series: The Good, The Bad And The Ugly Of Falling In Love


The Netflix Love series released its full 12-episode sophomore season over the weekend. And based on the viewer's feedback, they liked how series creators Judd Apatow, Lesley Arfin and Paul Rust tackled the stages of falling in love. 

Love is a universal language that everyone wants to talk about. When someone opens up the subject, you will see various reactions about it. One can look dreamy while he reminisce the time when he met his first love. Some will feel depressed as they remember their last failed relationship. This is why Love was a hit to its viewers. 

Netflix Love Series Gives Serious Feels


Bustle reports that the romantic comedy series was able to capture the realistic side of well, falling in love. Moreover, the report notes that Mickey (Gillian Jacobs) and Gus (Rust) were able to demonstrate love in the series not manufactured by Hollywood. 

According to the source, it felt real. Netflix viewers who have seen Love Season 2's episodes shows two people trying to understand their feelings and if they are willing to go head on with the relationship. Moreover, it touches on different levels of emotions. 

For example, that feeling of getting a text from a stranger whom you just met but you want to get to know better. Another is the endless conversations you have with friends about this particular boy that you like. As the outlet describes it, Netflix's Love brings the same warm feeling you had when you were in that same moment. 

In Season 2, the two lead stars start to slowly take off the shell that they have craftily built around them. Once you finish binge-watching the 12 episodes, you'd want to know where Mickey and Gus' relationship will go. The same feeling you had when you were in that dating phase. 

Love Season 3 To Happen In 2018?


Meanwhile, Netflix Life reports that it already has the probable release date for Love Season 3. The outlet notes that there is a big chance it will happen in March 9, 2018. A year after Love Season 2 was released. 

The outlet notes that the tentative date can happen if production and the upcoming storyline will start rolling without distractions. Are you rooting for Mickey and Gus' relationship too? What do you think will Love Season 3 have for this couple? Tell me and let's talk about it together!

Charlize Theron's Atomic Blonde

Are you ready?

I have always admired Charlize Theron. I have seen her act in different movie genre and I am always mesmerized by her eyes. It's like she does not need to speak much because her eyes convey the message.

Charlize Theron as an MI6 spy


People have been raving her Mad Max character. Unfortunately, I have not had the chance to watch the movie. Hopefully, soon I can find the time and then maybe (just maybe right a little review about it).

Well, Theron now returns to the big screen with yet another outstanding performance. Collider reports that the actress will take on the role of Lorraine Broughton, a top-level MI6 spy that has a special task in Berlin.

The website had the first few images of the movie and they look intense - especially with Theron battling two police agents (I think) in the kitchen. The film is set in the late 1980s. I guess that explains James McAvoy's rather eccentric attire (or that could just be me. Bell bottoms? Isn't that the 70s?)

David Leitch only has high praises for Theron


According to Entertainment Weekly, the actress made sure that she gives justice to her role. How? She trained with her director, David Leitch (yep, the same guy who directed Keanu Reeve's John Wick) and his team of fighters. They worked together for four to five hours for three months!

Leitch, on the other hand, described Theron as extraordinary. In his own words, he says seeing Theron work was "refreshing."

It’s refreshing to find an actor who can do these long, long takes, memorize the choreography, maintain the character, and deliver a performance,” said the Atomic Blonde director. 

To keep the suspense going, the film released two 15-second teasers to give moviegoers a sneak peek of this action suspense film. This is quite a different Charlize Theron, I might say. Hopefully, this will exceed our expectations.
