"I love this show. It’s really interesting to see what happens. I really enjoy watching it. Just wish it didn’t take so long between seasons. Seems to take forever for a new season. Recommend. "

"She’s so lovely & the audience will not doubt feel the connection she makes with her clients. I’m hope there’s another few episodes/season coming as a fast follow?
SPOILERS FROM HERE - STOP IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED
At the beginning of the series I thought “man, I hired matchmakers in the past -but she’s truly great”. I knew a fair amount about the more conservative and orthodox side of Judaism, but learned a LOT more during this series. Her words for various levels of religious were great, especially the term “flexidox”. Her approach of getting to know the client, recommend that they go on the dates and not immediately say “no” to a 2nd date made perfect sense. If it’s not a no it’s a keep going I think she said? Date them until you hate them was a little too extreme, although I do get her sentiment! Haha! I also loved that she worked with people of all ages and backgrounds. Not just the never married and no kids group. Refreshing! Please! More shows like this!
As with all shows, here’s a few things that could have been better:
1. None of her clients found someone they’re exclusively dating, or at least that the audience could tell from the final episode.
2. She was raised conservative and became progressively more conservative/orthodox over time. This could have contributed to the roster of clients that came her way for the show. And while I’m grateful that the show did have (2) people/clients that were more reform -I fully expected to see more? "
"Nice, easy background show with varied people"
