‘Love Is Blind’ Season 8 Receives Mixed Reviews for Its Tamer Tone
The latest season of Netflix's dating experiment, set in Minneapolis, features a larger and more diverse cast but lacks the drama of previous seasons.
- Season 8 of 'Love Is Blind' introduces 32 singles from Minneapolis, the largest cast in the show's history, ranging in age from 26 to 43.
- Critics have noted a significant reduction in drama and conflict, with many conversations described as wholesome but less engaging for viewers.
- The cast's lack of diversity compared to previous seasons has drawn criticism, despite Minnesota's rich cultural mix.
- Standout participants include Madison, a 28-year-old artist with a complex backstory, and Joey, a charismatic physician associate with a strong Minnesota accent.
- Episodes 1–6 are now available on Netflix, with critics divided on whether the season's slower pace will lead to more explosive developments later.
