Rewind Replay: Are You The One, Season 1 Recap

We've got another ✨new✨ episode type coming at you this week! For our Rewind Replays were are so excited to take you back in time to look at some of the hottest competition shows of the past. And we started strong by watching the original season of MTV's iconic Are You the One?, the show that begs the question: "If your perfect match was standing right in front of you would you even know?" And boy, did this cast of jabronis not know. 

Let's take a trip back in time. It's 2014. Obama is still president and "Happy" by Pharrell is playing on literally every station. Here comes MTV with their brand new show, Are You the One? The concept: 10 boys and 10 women, all competing for their share of $1,000,000 by finding their "perfect match" in a house in Hawai'i through Getaway Challenges, Truth Booths, and Match Ceremonies. 

We had literally the most fun we've had in a while breaking down this hilarious concept. I think we're laughing the entire time. Give it a listen to find out why we think this show is maybe perfect and all our thoughts on every aspect of the season including the host without the most, Ryan Devlin.
