POPO 2026 Day 19

Married at First Sight

A pastor & 2 therapists walk into a bar…
and pick 5 couples
to get married at 1st sight.
Approaching season’s 28-episode end
I have to wonder what were they thinking,
or did they let their rested laurels choose?
Was what motivated each gambler grokked,
or was it about looks & checked boxes?

Or… did they subconsciously make matches
that would be the most entertaining?
Oh Lord, 20% isn’t success in reality;
yet viewer numbers have renewed
it season after season.

    The people love tension and conflict, even when it’s manufactured.

      If only we could isolate that gene and tame it. Not eliminate it, just moderate it.
