Now available on Videoland: the Australian Buy Without Viewing

Today I present to you in the now well-known category ‘Australians do it better’: Buying Blind. We have known for a while that our Married At First Sight is actually just not that great. Because once you have watched the Australian MAFS you don't want anything else. I present that as a fact, because in my eyes that's just how it is. And that they down under simply have all the shows better under control is again proven with Buying Blind.

It has been available on Videoland since today (thank you for that), and is so much more fun than our version. Is the Australian people just so much more entertaining than we are? It's called Buying Blind and I've already watched a bit on YouTube and I guess we can just leave the Dutch version behind here.

It seems to be the case — I have no personal experience with it — that the housing market in Australia is even tougher and more impossible than that in the Netherlands. So you also get even more desperate couples and more intense episodes. By the way, I don't necessarily find Buying Blind the most fun when everything goes wrong. It's actually the other way around; this is one of those shows where it's enjoyable when things go well.

But well, today it will be put online by Videoland and yes, here I go again. New addiction incoming. How long will it take before I get an Australian accent? Seriously, 80 percent of the series I watch is Australian at the moment. Alrighty, mate. Hmm no, I don't have to worry about that accent.
