Such a fan of MAFS Australia?

I don't watch MAFS Australia. And it's not because I find MAFS Netherlands not that exciting, it's because MAFS Australia is the TV version of crystal meth. Dangerously addictive, that is. Everyone around me is hooked and heavily, heavily addicted. Also in the VARAgids, I read in my favorite column Buis en Haard one highly educated person after another praising MAFS Australia. It's very different from the Dutch version where the yes-word is reached within an episode.

At MAFS Australia, I have been told, the couples live together in an apartment, spend a week with the bride and a week with the groom, and really get to know each other well throughout the series. And we get to know them too.

Anyway. I heard everyone talking about Mike from MAFS, and Wieke and Daan were an hour off balance when Mike shared all his secrets on Insta. And the roof came off when we wrote about the most juicy moments of MAFS.

Well, the Dutch version of MAFS Australia, so the extended and dramatized version, is coming. I think I'm just going to give in to it. There's no escaping it anymore.
