The upcoming new season of "Married At First Sight" is going to be captivating than ever. Unlike previous seasons, this episode of the reality TV program will take you to an additional level as experts will be more hands-on than the early sequels. Correspondingly, fans should expect a lot of changes in the show's setup so, without delay, here are the things to get ahead this season.
Longer Period of Being Together
For the first time in this series, the couples will be sharing one roof for eight weeks or two months. It is longer than the previous seasons, in which the show decided after only four weeks. Expert psychologist Melanie Schilling states that two months is more genuine than four as it will "unmask everything from its character to come down."
She also added that it gives enough time "for individuals to be their own realistic self" and "see more of how their partner behaves under pressure or in ordinary situation."
More Contestants Will Be Involved
According to Stuff New Zealand, there will be 20 singles that will pair up in this show. It is twice the number of contestants in the previous season of "Married At First Sight". So, fans should expect two times of drama too. Also, another thing to expect is the new group dynamics, which caught the experts by surprise.
"We didn't really anticipate the strength of that. It takes on a life of its own and in some cases, it's more important and influential than the couple relationships," Schilling added. This somehow indicates that there is a possible partner swapping in the season, but the experts did not confirm it. Every week, these couples will have a dinner party together. Let us all wait and see what will transpire in the next few weeks.
Experts Are More Hands-On This Season
It can be remembered that previous seasons of the show contestants were left on their own. The new season, will have weekly check-ins called "commitment ceremonies" with the panel of experts. Through this, the specialists will be more efficient in guiding the couples and helping them pass through tough times.
"What you're going to see each week are couples that are fraught at times asking us very direct, sometimes aggressive, and will come up with angry questions, and we must be held responsible," Dr. John Aiken said. "They have to bond together and work with their partner to get through it, and so this show is diverse to any reality TV shows out there."
