Married at First Sight: Dr Pepper Schwartz

With the Married at First Sight premiere date recently announced, many fans wonder if there are going to be any major changes coming to Season 18. Here’s what we know so far about what viewers can expect from the upcoming season.

Married At First Sight Has Been On A Steady Decline

It isn’t a stretch to say that, as a franchise, Married at First Sight has been on a noticeable decline. Nowadays, the experts are lucky if they have even one successful match that remains married for the long haul. As viewers have seen, couples have said “yes” on Decision Day, only to be split up by the time the reunion special comes around.

Many Married at First Sight fans miss pairs like Woody Randall and Amani Randall. Viewers often call for the program to return to its roots, which is focusing on genuine connections, rather than dramatic couples for views or casting people who only want to be on the show for clout.

MAFS: Season 17 The Worst In Franchise History

Following Married at First Sight Season 17 in Denver, viewers have a lot of concerns as the franchise moves forward. Without a doubt, Season 17 in Denver was the worst yet for the long-running franchise. None of the couples stayed together when it all came down to it.

There was also the fact that leaked texts allegedly showed the cast members plotting to manipulate the storylines. This is exactly the kind of thing that viewers don’t want to see, as watchers want to see real people putting in real effort to make their marriages work, not manufacturing drama.

Married At First Sight: Are Drastic Changes Coming To Season 18?

With Married at First Sight Season 18 premiering in October, many viewers are curious about whether there will be any changes to how production does things for the upcoming season. For one, the show is heading back to Chicago and hoping to bank on the city’s previous success.

With viewers frustrated and calling for the reality matchmaking show to go back to how things used to be, it’s worth asking if production is paying any attention to these complaints from their fanbase. From the looks of it, though, they appear to want to carry on with business as usual, churning out more content and focusing on volume rather than quality.

Unfortunately, it does not look like production is making any major changes to things, as Married at First Sight Season 18 returns to Chicago. The experts are the same, as well as the number of couples. More than anything, it looks like shock and awe continues with the upcoming season as well.

Based on the synopsis of what Married at First Sight viewers can expect, and as PEOPLE notes, a cheating scandal leads to a couple swap. So, viewers will want to grab the popcorn for this, when MAFS Season 18 officially premieres on Tuesday, October 15, at 8 pm, only on Lifetime.
