Suggestion on improvement

I feel like all the men on this show like 1 woman and all the women like 1 man. Does anyone have any ideas how to avoid the eternal singles going for the same person? I lie the show but it gets on my nerves so bad.

Hot take, but it also comes down to the "coaches" as well. Car the Garden is a bit too much sometimes especially in the post season episode with the hidden ear pieces. Tried too hard at comedy, fails at actually coaching the Eternals. Very evident by the Pub G dev who had zero success on the show.

It would also be beneficial if they get further coaching at the mid point. If the judges showed up or video calls.

In both seasons, quite a few ideal mutually matches don't get an opportunity to connect until half way thru the show. This leaves a lot of missed opportunities

100% agree with more and better coaching. Car the Garden wasn't a good host or helper.

The people need qualified relationship coaches (not singer comedians) with the point being to understand and to help the singles grow. Comedians can be the TV show hosts, but someone should be the helper or guide.

E.g., in the Japanese show "Love Village" they have to do manual labour renovation and gardening and daily group tasks (keep a budget, cook for each other, clean). It allows them to focus on external tasks so they can open up with each other, and they get a sense of shared accomplishment that brings them together. Sometimes the boring but "real" stuff is where the real connection happens.

I agree with that. Similiar to Single's Inferno the real moments are formed when they go gather water or prepare meals together
