    That Ori guy is a balding skinny mama's boy who still lives his parents and he DEMANDS a blonde haired/blue eyed israeli supermodel who is willing to move in with his parents and compete with his mama for the title of #1 woman in his life... oh man he was hilarious

      Ori seems immature and superficial. Part of it might be because he's a mommas boy and hasn't had to grow up.
      That being said, We all deserve happiness, so hopefully he grows and matures and finds the right person!

    There were times when I missed Sima Aunty’s straightforwardness, like when Ori wanted a really good looking partner. He, however, is not great looking (average at most). I could hear Sima Aunty bringing him down to earth and letting him know he’s not all that. 😂

      @margaretchandia9452 Год назад +14

      Agreed Sima Aunty would have asked him if he had ever dated a super model and watch him fumble and proceed to take it off the list. She can trim the nonsense when she means to. She would have also told Dani to leave Daniel alone sooner.

      Right, but realistically how many supermodel boyfriends and husbands are "good looking"?
      They usually get with old Caucasian men that own yatches. Her looks equate to his money, whether you like it or not.
      Ori guy seems douchey but he's wealthy so he's gonna get the best looking wife money can buy . 💰🤑 😂

      @@igbokwenu4934 No, Ori is not wealthy. His parents are wealthy. He literally lives at home. It’s one thing to be average, but filthy rich and you own multiple homes, cars, businesses, etc. He is basically the family parasite. He doesn’t know what adulting is and it’s obvious he can’t survive without his mom telling him what to do.

    I'm Jewish and I learned some stuff too. I also really loved the loving feeling I had when Aleza connected with each client. She felt really authentic and invested in each person and in her work. It wasn't something she was doing because it was a tradition, as much as I think it was a calling for her. I really felt her love was palpable. I think she particularly had an affinity for Harmony and Nakisha because when she ended her conversation she said I love you. I don't think she would have said that to Ari. And like you, I found him so obnoxious and cocky. I think the young men on the show were mostly cocky... I think the Sean guy and the last guy with Nakisha were not mean or shitty.. but the rest were obnoxious.

    Was waiting for you to cover it, I loved watching Jewish Matchmaking. I agree that Aleeza's methods were better than Sima Aunty, maybe because she is a relationship coach as well. So she knows much more about people's dating expectations and handles it beautifully. I learned a lot to about Jewish culture. Also when it comes to comparison about the diversity shown on this show v/s IMM. I am an Indian and there are so many caste's and customs in India which are not shown in IMM, I feel Seema Aunty only touches upon few people's lives but there are many different sort of beliefs/gods in each region of india. It will be cool if they show that in next season, so non-indian people learn from the show, like I learned from JMM.

    I loved your take! This is the first Netflix show about Jews that I have seen actually positively portray my community. We’re a very diverse little group, and not all of us are white. I’m so glad the show actually showcased Jewish diversity because a common misconception about Jews is that we are all white and from Europe (which is just not true). Also, I wish Aleeza was my matchmaker. If I could afford her, I would call her up in a heartbeat.

      Don't hesitate to call her. If she is a legit Shadchan, she only "collects" if she finds you a husband and her fee is paid after the chuppah (the wedding). And it isn't crazy. Considering what you get for your money, that is (talk about an investment!).

But that's not really how it works in our world (which is why I was interested), so I am not surprised. I am guessing the religious people looking to go the more traditional route and are interested in using her, probably just call her. There are a lot of Aleeza's in the community!

    Fun review! As an Orthodox mom (who uses a matchmaker), I like the fact that Aliza represented us well. It wasn't 100% realistic as most Shadchans don't do it that way. But for a Netflix adaptation, they did a great job!

    Seema Aunty does send her clients to therapist, live coaches and readers(depending on thier beliefs). You forgot? Fay and Staurt were gems amongst coals. I enjoyed the show but overall I thought many of the candidates lacked dimension. I didn't feel as invested in their stories as i did with the 1st season of Indian matchmaking. I am hopeful for a 2nd season though🎉

    I was honestly expecting this show to be bad. I'd not seen Indian Matching and had never heard of this matchmaker, so I assumed it was going to be something going "look at this weirdo quirky stuff", or something like "and we'll show you the "correct way" of this.
    But I was totally wrong. This show doesn't do any of the self stereotypes at all. It works as education and entertainment. I am just so happy it interests non Jews too! I'm so happy you enjoyed it!
    I'm legit praying each bight for a season 2 🤣

    I enjoyed your review so much!!!!
    As a modern religious Jew, I really loved the diverse representation of Judaism on this show. People outside the Jewish community are often presented with one view of what Jews are like, and it’s often negative stereotypes. What I appreciated about Jewish Matchmaking was how it normalized the spectrum of Judaism and how we’re just normal people - some of us are assholes and some of us are awesome.
    I wish the show had explained some Jewish and Hebrew concepts a little better, because I feel like there was a lot of Jewish-specific lingo that non-Jews might have trouble understanding if they’ve never met an observant Jew before

    I think in general that finding a forever partner these days is so much harder thanks to the swipe left and right culture. Everyone thinks that there is someone better just around the corner. Good luck to everyone out there looking for a lasting relationship.

    I just finished it tonight and couldn’t wait to check out your take! I totally agree- Elisa is much better than Sima Auntie. She was much more understanding and positive. I didn’t like how in some cases she still picked people who were so obviously not what someone was looking for though. But there did seem to be some potential matches in the end. I wish we had gotten an update at the end of the season with where things stand with some of them. Sima Auntie would say just deal with it and keep going out with them. I’m glad Elisa didn’t put pressure on like that. She seems much more in touch with today’s dating norms and flexible about what people want - no judgement felt at all which was nice. Your clips in between takes were great here too. I still remember the one bar mitzva I went to as THE most amazing party!

    Great review! I don't think I can compare the two shows, Indian Matchmaker and Jewish Matchmaker, I think they did a good job at highlighting the important aspect when dating/marrying in the respective communities. They made two great shows! Weldone Netflix! But they did a good job with Love is Blind Japan and Brazil so I am not surprised.
    The nerd in me loved to learn all the Jewish stuff. I like the realistic take the matchmaker had, also the diversity was great and great advise.
    Couple of the season is definitely Stuart and his second date they flowed the most out of any couple. I think his date is kinda is mildly famous because I have seen her on a few things and I don't even live in the US.
    The worst one was definitely Ori I don't think he has ever dated his type. He needs a coach or something so he learns how to treat women. Harmony is a close second but it's kind of the matchmakers fault, she should have told her her options are limited based of the her age and her type because it showed in the dates. I am older are there are plenty of great women my age but most of the great guys are married and if they are single they are far from fit. Sima Aunty would have reminded her that pickins are slim when you are older as a woman dating to get married so maybe reevaluate your type. Shaiah is the third because I think he was putting on a show for Fay then got scared because she is a real one. Hope to see her again in the next season.
    I can't wait for season two because with all those cliffhangers I need answers.
