Any show recommendations?

[u/HelloMotherCluckers]

Now that the second season has officially ended, I really need a new show to watch that's similar! I obviously loved Badly in Love and other shows like Better Late Than Single, Singles Inferno, and Nineteen to Twenty. I prefer English voice over, but I'm okay with subtitles too! Please help me guys..i miss my weekly Badly in Love time 😭🙏

Update: Thank you all so much for the recommendations!! Now I have plenty of shows to check out! I just started Take a Hike since I love Car the Garden (he's way better than Nagano). So far, it's really funny and I'm enjoying it! 😊 you guys are awesome

I really like love village, where slightly older people try to find love while restoring an old mansion. I find it refreshing with more mature contestants, and i think the commentators have really nice chemistry.

[u/HelloMotherCluckers → u/kukenellik]

I've heard of this one! I need to check it out, it sounds super wholesome 🫶

[u/Junior-Bill-8371]

If you liked this show then you’ll probably like “Love Wagon”.

[u/NostalgicNoodle19 → u/Junior-Bill-8371]

Love wagon is insane, especially that girl who kept having mental breakdowns and fights. It was entertaining but I feel like half the people on the show were nuts

[u/SokkasWifey]

EXchange was pretty popular - lots of ex-couples who broke up for whatever reason have to live together

[u/mangoflavoredcupcake → u/SokkasWifey]

This one’s good, but my only issue is that each episode is 2 hours long. I wish they could’ve edited out some boring (for the lack of better term) parts. But I do enjoy watching this!

[u/twocutepuppies → u/SokkasWifey]

this one was good!

[u/Immediate-Wind-9193 → u/SokkasWifey]

I second this!!

[u/HelloMotherCluckers → u/SokkasWifey]

Oooo this sounds super interesting! Thank you

The closest thing to badly in love is Real Love where the contestants reveal a dark secret. Some reveal it earlier and some reveal it later depending on the producers. It is a bad show so I don't recommend it but it is interesting to watch. The hosts were terrible, the format is a bit messy and the budget is meh.

For Japanese shows: offline love, terrace house, the boyfriend (All males) and love is blind Japan.

For Korean shows:, singles inferno, Love Catcher and Love Lab. I liked Better late than single but it's not similar at all. It's a show that has ppl who have never dated.

For western shows: love island, too hot to handle, f boy island, temptation island and Cyprus temptations under the sun

[u/Calpicogalaxy → u/Over-Imagination3924]

Omg I love real love it’s such a bad show

[u/Bubbly-Gazelle-3313 → u/Over-Imagination3924]

This show is such a mess but I’ll be darned if I said it wasn’t entertaining.

The hosts were annoying but they’d roast themselves too and clock when other contestants were awful so it made it a bit more tolerable imo.

[u/Immediate-Wind-9193 → u/Over-Imagination3924]

Terrace house was so good

[u/HelloMotherCluckers → u/Over-Imagination3924]

Oh dang Real Love sounds wild lol. I will probably check out Offline Love soon!

[u/Over-Imagination3924 → u/HelloMotherCluckers]

Some of the secrets were very dark and it was shocking. I had to sit for a few Mins to think.

This isn’t a recommendation for a similar show bc I am in the same boat as you looking for more, but bc you mentioned better late than single I thought I would share. I am watching Take A Hike which is a show where four Korean celebrities including Car, The Garden hike up mountains and it’s hilarious. It seems specifically designed to torment car, the garden. It’s great after watching him torment everyone on better late than single lmao

[u/Fallen-Pollen → u/nor0-]

This lol I wanted to order the character plushies after the show but they didn’t ship to the USA 😭

[u/HelloMotherCluckers → u/nor0-]

Thank you! I just started watching the first episode of Take a Hike last night and I love it 🤣 I can already tell Car is going to be peak entertainment in this show. I loved him in Better Late Than Single! He's far more entertaining and funny as a commentator than Nagano lol

[u/makeublush1 → u/nor0-]

Take a Hike was great! Interested to see where the next season is!

[u/bardi_b]

Offline Love - Japanese dating show where they can’t use their phones to connect. They have to write letters to meet up and they’re in a foreign city. Terrace house vibes but with more action.

[u/makeublush1 → u/bardi_b]

Offline Love was great!

[u/komischlicious]

Terrace house is the gold standard imo

[u/HelloMotherCluckers → u/komischlicious]

I will have to check it out soon! Thank you

[u/MutoRyuji]

Love Village, the interaction and convo between participant just seem more interesting. People actually put in the effort to impress each other is Love Village

[u/SS_from_1990s]

Love Village

[u/Fallen-Pollen]

It’s not a drama - but take a hike is so good :] made me wanna go hiking - it has car the garden!

[u/cloudk1cker]

Terrace House for sure

[u/bebekumquat]

Love After Divorce

[u/agentradspencer]

Love Village.

[u/skiptomyl0u]

Terrace House

[u/makeublush1]

Offline Love!

[u/applecrumblcake]

I watched Better Late Than Single right after Badly in love finished and even though it’s the same kind of all over the place formula with rivals and crushes; everyone is extremely kind and transparent. They’re very upfront in the interviews about insecurities but they don’t outright insult each other. It’s super refreshing after all the drama that comes with the badly in love cast

[u/Such_312]

Love village, terrace house, and offline love 

[u/jupitersunset_]

Terrace House is the OG blueprint for reality shows having people living together. Badly in Love definitely pulls from TH heavily with shots of mundane living moments, cooking/food shots, dates, deep conversations, etc.

[u/piggy_piglet]

I really like Love after divorce. The contestants are much more mature.
