It’s finale night and time to crown our winners of Love Island Season 2!

Well I think we all had a pretty good idea of how this vote was going to go and I’m pretty happy about the results. Justine and Caleb were the clear winners this season and I’m very happy to see them walk away with the $100,000. I’ve loved them for a long time and grew more fond of them with each passing week. So happy for them.

The rest of the vote saw Cely and Johnny in second place, Calvin and Moira in third and Laurel and Carrington in fourth. Not really any surprises there but I will admit I was hoping we’d see Cely and Johnny further down that list but I totally understand.

I’m not sure which of our couples will make it on the outside and that will all be compounded by long distance and the craziness going on in the world right now. They all have a uphill battle ahead but I wish them all the best of luck.

Love Island Season 2 September 17th Recap and Thoughts

Four Islanders see their journeys end and three new arrivals aim to turn the villa upside down.

Let’s start with the vote because we finally saw our dream of a Mackenzieless villa come to fruition. I’m excited to see how the vibe in the villa changes with her gone. She was so overwhelmingly narcissistic that it became painful to watch her on a daily basis. I was not a fan of her trying to reel Connor back in on the way out the door and I really hope her last ditch effort wasn’t enough to lure him back in.

Besides Mackenzie we say goodbye to Jalen, Sher, & Aaron. Really these three never stood a chance. It honestly felt a bit unfair seeing them get ejected from the island before getting a chance to at least have a new wave of islanders swoop in. Out of the three I think Jalen is the only one who had any impact whatsoever on the island, being part of the reason Mackenzie and Connor broke up. Outside of that Aaron and Sher were two fairly bland islanders that could have been replaced by cardboard cut outs.

Lastly we had three new boys arrive in the villa to turn things upside down. Noah, Bennie and Bennett arrived and got to go on dates with Moira, Cely and Kierstan. Bennett and Kierstan really hit it off and I’m fully expecting them to be a new couple. Moira seems to be on the fence about both Noah and Connor. And then somehow Bennie is finding a little crack to sneak into Cely’s life. Johnny did not react well to the new guys coming in and I think it’s already hurting his relationship with Cely.

That’s it for tonight, I’ll be back tomorrow for the next episode!

Love Island Season 2 September 15th Recap and Thoughts

 

 

 

 

 

We’ve got another recoupling but no one will be headed home tonight. New couples on the horizon and a vote looming to determine the least compatible couple.

The recoupling was pretty interesting tonight even though no one is heading home. We’ve got three solid couples and four brand new couples so things in the villa are still pretty fluid. On top of that we will be seeing at least one person exit the villa on Thursday.

So the three solid couples Laurel & Carrington, Johnny & Cely, and Justine & Caleb. Not much to report on these couples and at this point I’d be surprised if we see them break up before the end of the season. It feels like this show has been going on for like a month now when really I don’t even know if we are halfway done the season. As a Love island virgin, I’m really curious about what happens when the majority of the house is in committed relationships. We could be headed in that direction in the next week or so.

Alright time to talk about new couples. Connor didn’t pick Mackenzie! Instead he went with Moira and I’m pretty happy with this couple. They are going to be painfully boring in the villa but as long as Connor isn’t thinking about Mackenzie, i’m a happy man. Next let’s jump to Kierstan and Calvin, I didn’t see this one coming at all but both seem pretty happy about it. Calvin sprinted away from Sher after she pulled out on the kiss yesterday and quickly looked for a new partner. I’m still on the fence about this couple but think there is at least a sliver of hope here. Next we have Jalen and Sher, I like Jalen but let’s be real Sher is turning her head for anyone who walks through the villa door. Last we’ve got Mackenzie and Aaron, I don’t care about this couple and am looking forward to seeing them in the bottom of the vote on Thursday.

Speaking of the vote, I am totally on team Justine and Caleb. I’m hoping they get the most votes on Thursday. I’m feeling like the bottom two couples are going to be Jalen & Sher and Aaron & Mackenzie. I don’t know how things will go down with the vote but I’m really hoping we can finally get rid of Mackenzie.
