PEEKING INTO LOVE
I like this show! Would love to see it advance to two series per season. It’s fun to see how people maneuver through love. Like any interactive setting, the cream rises to the top—meaning, some people are more visible than others—capable of showing their best sides, knowing how to ask for what they want, while others are shy, and without vocabulary. I enjoy all the experiences of Paradise, especially seeing how one chooses to utilize that opportunity, whether it be wise or unwise. Sometimes, I’m screaming at the tv! Like many of these types of shows, there are entirely too many hosts for commentary. More than three, is time lost from the primary program, I think. Would prefer not waiting for episodes to drop, but it shows my investment in these cast members-seekers of love.Considerați utilă această recenzie?
Better season due to entertainment value, cast and show format
Each time I go into watching dating shows, I go into it to be entertained, to be moved and be engaged by the cast. To me, the show is a real-time evolving narrative where I only get to see an edited final material. Thus I base my opinion on what I have been fed. Although the characters' were cut from the same cloth as those from previous years, their emotions and thoughts were played out more for the audience to see this time around in my opinion. The show's producers signed on individuals that were more vocal, controversial, spirited and immature then put them in almost continuous jarring situations as soon as they arrive, on their first breakfast in Paradise, and as soon as people get back to Inferno. All of which make for jaw-dropping, tearful, infuriating, questionable, frustrating and explosive moments which for viewers like me was entertainment gold.I admit I came for the train wreck, but I also enjoyed seeing the camaraderie amongst the cast members which came across as genuine amongst some. The pressurized atmosphere was lifted by the occasional display of lighthearted banter. That is another thing this season had shown more of and it was heartwarming.
I recommend you watch Single's Inferno Season 3. Kick it off with a bowl of Bugles with Chex Mix, sit back and enjoy the ride. You may even be compelled to leave a comment, just as I did, for some reason or another. If you judge by the comments, it is quite polarized. Therefore, there is a big chance you come out hating it or loving it. Nonetheless, I wish you happy viewing!

Good first half, then dwindled in the 2nd
Boy oh boy! How excited I was when they announced a 3rd season because I really loved this show and It never ceases to amaze me, but then something started feeling off about it.This season really had me in the first half, It was super perfect, I'm squealing like crazy episode after episode, I love how they tried to switch up things to make it interesting and not to make like repetitive, though I don't mind if they kept the same set up like in season 1 since the hard carry will always be the people that they will bring in.
As I said in my review for Season 2, I wish this show is longer than it is, like you could stretch this into a full-on kdrama runtime, like the standard 16 episodes a season, I even said in my season 2 review that it could go up to 20 episodes with all the boring talking included and I would still eat that shit up. The way it is, 9 to 11 episodes are great, it's fast, and you're on your toes every episode, but once you get invested in these people, you'll start to feel like "I wish I could learn more about these people, cuz these guys seemed to be interesting to know with". You can tell though that this season had a lot to show, based on the way things are moving and some interactions weren't even delved deeper that much, it looked like they had to cut out a lot, mind you, it's already 11 episodes which is like 2 episodes more than season 1, but it felt like I haven't even got to know half of the participants well enough.
And like I said in the beginning, this got me in the first half only, I didn't drop it or anything, I managed to finish it, but it took me a while even though it should've taken me only 1-2days max because, around the second half when they added the last female participant, things started dwindling. It's not Single's Inferno without a participant having a harem because this girl also got interested in this one male participant who already has 2 girls going after him. Now, I don't really mind that as long as it makes things interesting and doesn't overshadow other participants, but then the people behind this decided to make it the main thing of the show, it's a good drama, but I also wanna watch others. It felt like because of that some participants weren't able to shine, it's almost like they got ignored post-production, like background characters you're supposed to ignore, and to me, it looked like they were boring people, though one of them did fucked up in the paradise date, oooofff!
Dex being one of the panelists this season is interesting, to see and hear his opinions as someone who also went through the same struggle is good, I already saw some articles that they're doing it for the next season as well and it's my girl Hajeong, so happy for her.
So yeah, good season, it started off really strong, but yeah... fell off because of some imbalances with what to highlight, still interesting nonetheless. I still think season 2 is the best season.
