In partnership with Netflix.
Can you even believe it’s been five years since Love Is Blind first hit our screens? Honestly, I never thought the most addictive reality TV show would be mostly people having deep conversations with walls. But, Love Is Blind isn’t like other reality shows, it’s an ~experiment.~ And, after all this time, we’re still slightly questioning if love is truly blind, but if it’s not, how do you explain Lauren and Cameron? Or Tiffany and Brett?? Or Garrett and Taylor??? There have definitely been some successes (including multiple children that literally wouldn’t exist if not for the pods). But let’s not forget the mishaps, awkward moments, and unfortunate heartbreaks along the way.
Lucky for us die-hard fans, Season 8 is now streaming on Netflix, and while we dissect every “I just feel like I know you” convo in the pods, let’s take a stroll down memory lane. There have been so many iconic moments, quotes, and couples – so we’re diving into the ones that are still living rent-free in our heads. Grab your gold cups, get nostalgic, and lock into new episodes every Friday.
Lauren and Cameron Say “I Love You”
Kicking things off with the couple who somehow made my cold, dead heart say “AWW” out loud during the Season 1 premiere – Lauren and Cameron. These two were made for this experiment. I remember being a bit skeptical when they said “I love you” so quickly (and without even seeing each other), but thankfully, I was proven wrong – because here they are, five years later, still happily married (!!!).
Deepti Says “I Don’t”
After Shake compared spending time with Deepti – his fiancée – to hanging out with his aunt, this season finale moment was everything. It was the perfect full-circle moment, reminding women everywhere to never settle. Oh, Deepti, the woman that you are.
Chelsea’s Celebrity Lookalike
Look, in Chelsea’s defense, Megan Fox herself said she could see it. (And honestly, I can kinda see it too.) The only catch with this iconic moment is… aren’t you not supposed to talk about looks in the pods? Isn’t that kind of the whole point? But hey, to each their own.
Zack’s Favorite Song
Zack and Bliss adorkably bonded over “I Hope You Dance” in the pods – only problem? Zack mixed up the artist’s name. It’s Lee Ann Womack, not Wombat. But, hey, we all have those moments, right? Nevertheless, they got married, had their first dance to the song, and then, as if on cue, when they had their baby, Lee Ann Womack sent them a wombat stuffed animal. Honestly, this is the kind of fanfic I’m here for.
Chelsea and Kwame’s NSFW Photoshoot
Chelsea certainly got those “boudoir vibes” she was looking for in her and Kwame’s half-naked engagement photoshoot – matching underwear and all. But, um, yeah, pretty sure those aren’t the shots I’d be sending my parents unless I wanted a family therapy session.
Laura Having Jeramey’s Location
Laura absolutely cleared him. No notes. When Jeramey just kept digging himself deeper, claiming he and Sarah Ann had a long chat in the bar parking lot after a night out – Laura, in pure mastermind fashion, casually dropped that she had his location and saw he was actually at Sarah Ann’s apartment. Chef’s kiss.
And Brett Brown’s Pants Saga
When Brett showed up on his wedding day and realized his pants didn’t fit, all hell broke loose. He legit had to find a tailor the day of to fix them on the spot. (If he wanted to, he would.) Honestly, you can’t blame the man for wanting to look good for Tiffany. They’re happily married now, but seriously – who knows where they’d be if he hadn’t pulled off that last-minute pant rescue?
