Great theme
bestubev-031082 January 2023
When the show started it had a lot of energy, but as time went on it started to fade. I thought there were too many be people coming in to distract the couples from getting to know each other. I was disappointed with the ending because the audience to choose the couple was definitely not diverse enough and the newbies who barely knew each other won. They didn't have to go through all the challenges or distractions the other couples fought for. This was definitely a biased show I won't watch again unless Mary is a reunion update in the couples comeback to let us know what their status are in their journey is after being on the show.

Pretty tricky CBS
quockquock2 November 2022
Dear CBS, you put a show on network television, then when you think we are all hooked on your show, you take it off the air and put in on your pay for view network. Do you really think I/we are going to sign up for Paramount Plus and pay 5 bucks a month, just to watch this garbage? Also to be forever locked into some sort of contract or endless spam for eternity? The show is terrible and so are you CBS for thinking anybody would pay to follow this horrible show. The hosts of this show are horrible as well. All five of them! You'd be better off just remaking the old show with the premise it was originally based on.

For Real!
gladamsmovies15 October 2022
For real! This has to be a joke.. It's just a copy of that stupid idiotic "Love Island" series show But on a boat instead of an island. Not the greatest of cast that could be better, and the young people are no different than the others Just showing their stupidity and ignorance. I think for the women, they should chisel half their makeup off and especially their eyes so you can see the "Real" woman! Why can't both the men and women be the real average everyday person and not the gorgeous made up women and hunky dory men. Why copy love island and pairing up the couples. Why can't they have a group of men and women and let them mingle and pick for themselves and go from there. This could be a good show could be a good series but not when it copies love island. Not my kind of show.

Garbage
cockezville30 October 2022
I don't even know what to say about this mess of a show. Why does network TV continue to process these idiotic unscripted shows? That is why people leave for cable . And why would anyone watch a show with untalented Rebecca Romane and the creepy, slimy Jerry O'Connell. The guy really has strange vibes . I recently heard that the ratings are so poor that the show is being cancelled and moving to Paramount, the home of all the losing shows. I really think reality shows have had their day. I just hope Big Brother,the Bachelor, survivor and the rest of these shows will soon be cancelled. But Love Boat was truly the bottom feeder of reality shows.

The show was ok but terrible ending
edithabattiste30 December 2022
Emily and Mike one of the last couples to meet wins over Jordan and Kendra and Daniel and Shae. Emily was with another guy all the way up into the last 2 episodes. She is a horrible person and Mike was so phony. She dumped her guy for Mike the fake. Why bother to have challenges if it's going to come down to answering questions and who is the favorite. The end didn't match the concept of the show. If it was going to come down to a Q&A then allow the couples to spend more time talking instead of physical challenges. The writers and creators of the show missed the whole concept of the Love Boat. Terrible ending to a show it seemed as if it were fixed. Not going to bother looking at it on Paramount just not worth it.

Waste of time
nielsenpete27 October 2022
Couldn't be a bigger disappointment. Way too much reality garbage. Due to people being too emotional or sensitive we now get to watch mindless garbage.

No more laughs for entertainment.

This show has to go...in the trash!

Watched it to see what it's about and found that it's boring, mind numbing, worthless, non entertaining.

I'm running out of words to describe it. Worthless and mind numbing is all it is, nothing more. Especially terrible when trying to add the original theme song to it. Host is terrible that's why he can't find any other show except a female talk show to be on.

Digging from the bottom of the barrel to find a host.

Another Brainless Reality Show
lawriter-5083722 October 2022
Another Brainless Reality Show. CBS and NBC are talking about making Primetime two hours not three because of low viewership. Shows like this, are one of the reasons. Game shows, reality, and low budget series are the reasons. Series directors produce soap opera level stories without technical consultants telling them that their ideas aren't plausible or are unreal for the time periods or specifications of props used is just insulting. The writers' think they can get away with IT attitude is insulting. Nobody is that stupid The networks cand fold up.

And the advertising, over and over every fifteen minutes the same Medicare ad, the same medical product ad, what happened to all the different advertisers? Where did they all go?. Do any of the network decision makers watch these offerings? I!d say not one had watched television in a very long time.

Love This Show
joyrory1 December 2022
Love the hosts Rebecca and Jerry and the locations are gorgeous. It's really fun. The drama is minimal, which is a nice change from shows like Bachelor in Paradise where people are always having breakdowns because there is so much pressure. The focus here is on getting to know new singles both on the ship and when exploring beautiful locations including Santorini, Istanbul and Rome. The activities are casual and fun, such as a treasure hunt in Istanbul's Grand Bazaar and shopping in Athens. I feel like I am on vacation just watching it. Not sure anyone will find true love though since the people change so frequently. The show isn't perfect but it deserves a second season.

Finale results = thumbs DOWN
scubafiend22 December 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The challenges did not test their connections. Whole format is not about fostering a real relationship although some couples were able to forge a real connection despite this. Not the winners who I suspect spent their time together on strategy to win the prizes, not on the relationship. Their choice but it shows the flaws in the show.

The one couple in the finale that should have gotten first got third. The one that got first should have gotten third. I don't believe Emily (least favorite person) had an actual connection to new guy and she completely turned my stomach on how she manipulated Marty and then threw him under the bus. Will not watch if there is another season.

A ""Poor man's Love Cruise Maiden Voyage"
jmworacle-9902530 October 2022
For full disclourse I worked for Windjammer Barefoot Cruises for nineteen years and Capitain Stuart Larkum was a friend of mine. I will admit there were somethings done well but it wasn't working. Love Cruise Maiden had the misfortune of trying to premire on 9-11. This threw off the schedule and due to the appreoching MLB playoffs had to rush the episodes. It seemed like at a certian point they lost focus and had to improvise.

The good points of the show were giving power to the genders and when it came time to choose they would have throw in some "ringers." The concept if you were chosen you disembark at that port of call. I didn't care for the Capitain meeting with bartender and activitys mate of the goings on. The bartender should have not tried to be a female "Isaac."

Extremely disappointing show with silly challenges.... The host Jerry and Rebecca weird energy no real connection to the contestants. The winner weren't fooling anyone with the phony connection. They barely touch each no hand holding constant lifting glasses to toast. This show mostly will be canceled by CBS and redirected to the streaming network. The challenge to bath in the olive oil and full a bottle but could not use any tools but their bodies distasteful. What was the purpose to fill a bottle? Did actually use the oil for a later date to season good. What a waste Not fooled by their staged admiration.

Not Real Love Boar
cjsullivan-0880010 January 2023
This show started off interesting, but the ending was horrible. If this story plot was based on love, the mark was missed. The activities seem to have been fun. I like that the couples were able to explore other places and the activities were based on the culture of the place. Then, you have a couple that was together the entire time and were cheated out of their winners spot. Shay and Daniel should have won. The couple that won did not deserve to win having only spent a short time together. I even think they were surprised they won. I refuse to watch this phoney show ever again! TAKE IT OFF THE AIR FOREVER!!!

Great!

Warning: Spoilers
I love this show. Really neat concept. Great people and always full of surprises. I especially, liked the bungy jumping episode. Everyone here brave. Love the places that the love boat docks in. Italy was grand! The love boat series is great, too. Very positive and happy show. Awesome scenery! It's great when they have characters from the original series pop in. All the people selected for this series are interesting. Please continue this series paramount. And it would be great to have the next season follow the coast of mexico, just like the original. This show really makes me want to see the next episode and has caused us to renew my paramount subscription.

Love this show
yolandacspeedebuyers11 February 2023
I really love this show. It's a clean show it doesn't have too much drama and it's different from the other shows usually the other shoes are cat fights with the women. These women keep they're cool and also the men. I don't understand why they took it off cbs and now I hear they are putting it on a streaming channel which I don't have and I won't purchase. I hope I can watch it on a regular channel because I do want to continue on watching it. I really enjoyed how in the show they do the challenges. It really makes sense to see if the couples really are meant to be together. And how all the couples express to each other.

Excellent Show
Amoviegirl24 November 2022
I love this show. I look forward to it every week. And I rarely ever watch Any Reality Shows. I love Rebecca Romaijn and Jerry O'Connell as the hosts. I love the Cast, which some you root for and some you cheer when they're "shoved off". There is a lot of activities, interaction, absolutely beautiful locations. A lot of sincerely hopeful Romantic Cast members. I hope CBS gets it together and brings the show back for another season in another time slot. Also, the show got Much Better the week it was taken off of CBS and put on Paramount+. CBS was Way too impatient with this brand new show. I love the Coupling of Kendra and Jordan. Such an adorable couple. And I also really like Daniel and Shea. I feel bad for Marty believing in Emily, but she is Very Cold, and showed her Selfish, Cold and Closed off True Self to Marty this week. I don't watch Bachelor, except maybe a few seasons, but if CBS execs are paying ANY ATTENTION to this Diamond in the Rough Show and Cast, they will Snatch Up Marty for their next Seasons Bachelor. He deserves a Happy Ending.
