Let’s Marry Harry; I don’t know which is better: The show being fake or real? 😭
I’ve seen a lot of posts talking about how fake/scripted this show is as though that makes it any better! I mean why would anybody in their right mind allow themselves to be given this type of script exactly? Like comonnn, it’s not a movie, they’re not actresses. This is supposedly reality TV. So why then will anyone want people to all over the world to watch them and then associate them with the behaviors displayed on the show and what the show generally represents?
I’ve been trying to wrap my head around it and I just CAN’T. I can’t imagine being given the script for instance and reading it and seeing “get your family in front of the camera because disgracing yourself only is not enough, get screen time and some small popularity, get to fly out on PJs and have “fun” with a douchebag, get a chance to be casted in other absolutely ridiculous Netflix love shows, maybe get paid? Idk.
However in return, you must humiliate yourself properly, drink the warm, slimy saliva and eat the dry, crusted catarrh of said douchebag, literally compete with 19 other birds (not my words, these are the douchebag’s honorary brother’s words, he called them birds.) 1969 Nollywood “King and the maidens” style, for douchebag’s attention.” I could go on but I think I’ve made my point, it’s just inconceivable to me why any woman would be on a show like this, scripted or real.
Any lens used to view this show it’s just horror and gory and it’s incredibly sad that Netflix, in this time and age, will make a show like this. It’s a direct insult on feminism as it is deeply misogynistic. Shows like this shouldn’t see light of day let alone be this widely promoted. Lastly, I feel so sorry for the women on this show. They were all incredibly gorgeous and idk how exactly desperate they must’ve been for fame or money or love or whatever else be their reason to allow themselves go through what they went through on this show. May God save them all.
TLDR: Whether scripted or real, Let’s Marry Harry is a mess that never should have been made. It is misogynistic and I feel sorry for the women that allowed themselves to be humiliated the way they were on the show.
