In the recently aired Mexican production of Netflix’s Love is Blind franchise, betrothed couple Chema and Silvia disrupted their producer’s script — and the original premise of the program. The program asks participants to ultimately either get married or break up. But instead, the couple, holding hands and laughing exuberantly like children, did neither — and fled from their wedding guests.
The Mexico Love is Blind (LIB) story is just one example of how the participants in international productions of the popular reality dating show are joyfully disrupting established formulaic narratives.
