Overview
- Entertainment Weekly reports eight couples got engaged in the pods, with Elissa Finley and Miguel Josue Lopez ending their engagement the next day and not being followed beyond the pods.
- Finley mistakenly applied nail glue as eye drops during filming, was taken to the ER where her eye was flushed with saline, did not stay overnight, and was not filmed during treatment.
- Show creator Chris Coelen says the medical incident did not cost Finley a full day of filming and that producers prioritized her safety.
- Producers followed seven couples this season, exceeding the usual five or six, which led to six pairs traveling to Mexico while Vic St. John and Christine Hamilton took a lower-footprint Malibu trip captured largely via handheld footage.
- Episodes 1–6 are streaming now, with episodes 7–9 due Feb. 18, episodes 10–11 on Feb. 25, and the finale on Mar. 4.
