Heart Signal 5 (Chinese Version)
Can 9 people who are looking for love, find their perfect partner?
This is a reality TV dating show. There are about 9 contestants who live in the same house and try to find their perfect fit. There is also a crew of judges who watch their actions and act as both commentators and audience. They analyze each and everything that the contestants did and gave us their expert opinions on it. This show also gives a lot of opportunities for the contestants to get to know each other better and find their perfect partner.
I loved this show and trust me, I am quite vary of reality TV shows in general. But, this one really had great chemistry between some of the couples. One caveat though is that the product placement is extremely obvious and annoying in this show. I just forwarded those parts quite fast and I think that is why the forward button is there, so use it well. Apart from this, another thing that was a little jarring was the presence of a crew of judges who acted as both commentators and audience. The problem was not that this is a bad concept, but too much discussion between them in some episodes seemed like a drag at times. Apart from these two things, if I focus on the actual interactions between the couples, it was quite realistic and sweet at times. I would say that if you are someone who likes watching sweet shows that make you laugh and go aww, then definitely give this one a try. You won’t regret it. Just forward the advertisements and you will be fine. I promise!
