Well, well, well. The second batch of episodes of “Love Is Blind” Season 4 were released Friday, and we cannot wait to blab on with our commentary about the Seattle couples.
Join Ruth Etiesit Samuel, Taryn Finley and Erin E. Evans for a chat about Jackie and Marshall’s epic blowup, Kwame dealing with second thoughts about marrying Chelsea and Zack and Bliss’ seemingly out-of-nowhere coupledom.
The Weddings Are Getting Closer And We're Ready For A Bunch Of I Don'ts
The preview of Friday’s episodes features wedding dress shopping, Jackie talking with Josh AGAIN, Chelsea asking the right questions, Micah giving Paul the opportunity to say “I Do” or “I Don’t” first and Zack and Bliss talking about changed minds in a pool. At this point, I’m really only rooting for Brett and Tiffany to stay together. (Last week, I still had hope for Jackie and Marshall, but now I don’t.)
Catch up with us next week when we provide more commentary.

Zack Didn't Even Have To Beg For Bliss Back — That's A Problem
Now, Bliss. Remember what wisdom the late, great Maya Angelou left us? She said, when somebody shows you who they are the first time, believe them. So why didn’t you believe Zack, my good sis?
If that man ain’t crying, coughing, throwing up and dragging himself on the floor begging for you to take him back, there’s no reason to even entertain the conversation. Even then, Bliss, as brilliant and lovely as you seem, you made it all too easy for this man to walk back into your life after dumping you in the pods for irritating-ass Irina. You even read this man for filth, saying that if he chose the mean girl, he’s a bad judge of character. So. Why in hell would you open the door so easily for someone with the judgment of a deer crossing a four-lane highway during rush hour?
I hate to say it, but you played yourself. And that ick you keep feeling about being Zack’s second pick? You’re right. Because you were. I want so much better for you, girl. True love shouldn’t come with an ick attached. Free yourself. — Taryn
They don’t even have chemistry! I cringe every time they show up on-screen together. Why are they forcing this? Which “Love Is Blind” producer do I have to blame for this taking up so much screen time? Also, it was VERY funny to me that Zack messed up the sous-vide steaks. I gotta stop watching this show when I’m hungry because I notice ALL the food moments. — Erin
Y’all remember last time a certain kind, sweet-hearted woman was a certain preacher’s kid’s second choice?! Y’all remember that a few seasons ago?! ‘Cause I do! And they did not live happily ever after! — Ruth

Micah Confronts Irina About Paul And It Ends With A Quick But Bombastic Side Eye
“Was I the big fool who missed your red flags?” Micah says to Irina when they meet up in Seattle, referring to her foul play in the pool with Paul.
Honestly, I kind of forgot that this happened. I’m glad Micah went straight to Irina to be like, “Hey, that shit ain’t cool.” I also love how every time Micah mentions Irina she says, "We are 'best friends'” and she always uses air quotes with it. Are y’all show best friends? Fake best friends? Not friends at all? Either way, they’re cut from the same cloth. At the end of the conversation, Micah tells Irina that she knows Paul is not interested. Micah flashes a bombastic side eye to her and I almost fell off my couch. Seems like there may be more drama awaiting us with this trio.

Apparently, Micah’s Friends Are Pretty Terrible Too
Ah, yes, we’re back to Regina George & co. I understand your friends doing a vibe check on your partner. On multiple occasions, I have been the person that is requested to initiate the vibe check, OK. However, what the vibe check does not entail is brazen disrespect toward my friend’s partner.
I'm unsure how much alcohol was consumed prior to filming, but Micah’s friends, um, do not seem ... very bright. Paul, in my eyes, is very regular. Not extraordinarily articulate. Mans was just talking. Furthermore, her friends are plain rude. It was giving mean sorority girls who moved to the “big city” for adventure. To flat out tell the man, “You’ve gotta pass my test” — then add that you’ll ultimately say something “bitchy” about Paul at one point? And expect a positive response? That is so uncouth.
In conclusion, I genuinely believe that Micah’s friends actually do not want to see her happy. The way it comes off? With the crying after Paul clapped back? It feels more about control and jealousy. Opp behavior at its finest. — Ruth
I have a couple of friends that I rely on as my braintrust in my relationships. I only take information to them when it is vital. But what seems to be happening with Micah is that she tells her friends ALL her business and they feel like they have a vested interest in helping her decide what should fly with her chosen partner. Micah saying to Paul that her friend Shelby is “easily angered” was pretty telling. And then Paul quipped back “I can’t say that I care.” I was cheering for Paul at that point. LIKE, YES, stand up, Paul, because this woman thinks she can say whatever she wants and not get a simple snappy response? Nah. — Erin
