“Temptation Island” has officially moved to Netflix. The reboot quickly shot to the top of our queues, and we finally gave into temptation… to watch a bunch of maladapted men cheat on their girlfriends in Hawaii. We go through the highlights of the season, the way that gender roles play out within the franchise, and, of course, “rhythmic wet slapping.”

It’s finale week, and our guy Grant is going through it on his way to a happy ending! He finds himself in a bit of a pickle after he’s told two beautiful, dynamic women – who both “carry themselves” so well! – that he loves them. His good-on-paper girl and his fellow lone wolf are going head to head, and he’s torn. Grant has just a few days to go on some last-chance dates, introduce both Juliana and Litia to his family, and then make the big decision. (Spoiler alert: He does! And some all-time high-quality drama ensues.)

Monica Danus’s time on “Love Is Blind” season 8 ended in heartbreak at the altar, and she revealed on the reunion special that the heartbreak only continued after filming wrapped. We had so many questions for Monica about her time on the show and everything that has gone down since. We discuss how she feels about her engagement with Joey after watching the show (and his choice to longboard down the aisle), the fallout from her sister’s skepticism, whether Joey led her on after the wedding, and her explosive revelation that her pod friend Sara and Joey are now dating.

Grant and his final three are in the Dominican Republic for fantasy suites, and it’s a pivotal week – because Grant still barely knows these women. Juliana shows off her down and dirty side, Litia convinces Grant she’s adventurous, and Zoe is once again thwarted in her quest to have a conversation with her possible future husband. But – we do get the FIRST “I love you” of the season. And it comes from Grant! There may be zero narrative tension during Grant’s fantasy suites, but heading into the finale it seems like we may finally get some drama… and some real genuine heartbreak.

Most “Love Is Blind” reunions are basically useless. But 8 seasons in, Nick and Vanessa Lachey actually (mostly) delivered. Or, rather, the women of LIB Minneapolis came correct. They had receipts, and monologues, and striking clarity about their relationships during the show. Plus, the most unsettling update of all: Daniel’s new tattoo of Taylor’s eyes.

As Grant’s breakneck season sprints toward the finale, his former bachelorettes gathered for the traditional Women Tell All special, moderated (sort of) by Jesse Palmer. And it turned out to be another episode of the Carolina Show, as the women rehashed every moment of tepid drama – and Carolina came ready to win every point. Plus, some really exciting stuff! Like… weird Disney film tie-ins… and Grant’s Easter-themed suit… and… bloopers? This whole reunion could have been an email.

It’s only week 6 of Grant’s journey to find love, and yet somehow we are ALREADY AT HOMETOWNS. We’re whisked away to see the skyscrapers of Manhattan (Zoe) and Chicago (Dina), the mountains of Wyoming (Litia), and the pizza parlor of Newton, Mass. (Juliana). Grant really digs into what he wants from a wife – namely a giant, loving family that he can nuzzle right into.

Now that our “Love Is Blind” squad is back in Minneapolis, real life has officially rocked the couples. Protective – and overprotective – sisters weigh in, and the couples struggle to align on politics, faith, and social justice issues. Dave sets new land-speed records for assholery as he continues to obsess about Lauren’s past situationship – and introduces the audience to his Sex Boss. (His sister, natch.)
