Absolutely! I bloody love it. Makes me feel intelligent and also like I’m winning at life in comparison.

Just for once though I’d like to see the villa full of average looking 30 somethings who know a bit about life and would actually be a challenge to play Scrabble with. It ain’t going to happen so here’s to summer with a villa full of very good looking but dim young’uns. May they have their 5 minutes of fame and make a dick of themselves on camera for my entertainment!

They just prefer the people with most insta followers and celeb friends ...

I'm sure if they picked 20 people off this group the show would run all year and 24 hours a day with the great content

I don't watch it as I find reality programmes like this unreal. Plus the people who go on the show are probably narcissistic and superficial who only care about not onlty sex but also the fame of one of them wins.

I will have to agree that this should should have been cancelled after two people from the show committed suicide because, what happens if it happens again?

Should people stop joining the armed forces because it can cause PTSD?

I'm sure joining the army is a lot different then joining a TV show. I agree that everyone has the right to choose.

What I think is people who apply for stuff like this should be psychologically evaluated to see if they'll be capable of coping in stressful situations.

Never watched it before.

Watched a bit, fame seeking plastic people.

Why no average bods either, pretty much all slimmer women and all guys with abs. What about representing the dad bods and women with wobbly bits and stretch marks etc.

No wonder young people grow up with it image issues with this being touted as the norm.

Its the audience do the body shaming, the people at home, the trolls, the keyboard warriors. Wat right does any person have to comment on another persons body. Ok the show seems to be leaning towards very slim girls, but there also only the first few girls to enter the house.

Iv seen that and many similar, whilst I agree young people feel a lot pressure to conform and look a certain way, love Island is not body shaming anyone. Granted its showcasing certain body types buts its not slating or shaming anyone that doesn't look like that.

Spot on, I think if they did show blemished, larger, wobby bodies they those people would be shamed all over social media. Its individuals who shame not the show.

I know that it doesn't actually say the show slates people. What is puzzling though is when a spokesperson said "We’re not trying to pretend this is reality. This is a sort of hyperreal world. Normal life doesn’t always look like this, nor should it."

It gives me the impression that the show isn't real despite it being a Reality TV show.

Yes it's not to be taken seriously.

I understand that it's not meant to be taken seriously and I understand why it has an audience and if they like it, I won't stop them as they have every right to watch whatever they wish.

Urgh. . watching spoilt daddies rich kids with unrealistic expectations trying to fall in love that clearly base everything off looks.... Not for me.

If it was the average person then yeah.

But these are gym freaks and beautiful women that clearly don't need love island they've probably got boyfriends and girlfriends for every day of the week.

It's brilliantly trashy TV. It's a shame the women seem a little immature though.

Clearly didn't watch it last night, a lot of them have degrees, good jobs and seem far more intelligent than usual love islanders.

Another jaded response. Why can't aesthetically beautiful people be humble, shy, socially awkward, unlucky in love?!? You seem very judgemental at the moment against how others look.

Saff

They may have qualifications but they seem either vacant or tiny princesses with proper bants. All the guys seem older wide boys too... the only woman who's a similar age (26) has never had a relationship.

Then in all honesty I'm not sure you should comment on the brains of the people on the show, you haven't seen it so you are just making unhelpful and wrong judgements.

Fine. I apologise. It was just an opinion.
