Is The New Love Is Blind Season 6 Worth Watching?

After a couple rough seasons, that included fan backlash toward co-hosts Nick and Vanessa Lachey for pushing contestants to have babies in the Season 4 reunion special and led to a literal petition from fans to remove them from the show, Love Is Blind brings back the tough, yet relatable talks and we see couples work through topics of abortion, trauma, therapy, past marriages, single parenting, and loss — all before much of the cast even meet each other face-to-face. With contestants on an accelerated path to marriage, it’s not only necessary to take these convos seriously but also vital to the lifeline of a relationship to talk about your past, present, and hopeful future. It’s how those “what ifs” are dealt with or different belief systems are managed that contribute to a successful marriage: What if there is an unplanned pregnancy? What if one partner suddenly has to deal with grief? Or that partner becomes physically ill? The answers to those questions will define what a life partnership looks like going forward. And everyone, even people who sign up for a reality dating show, deserve to know what they are getting.
