It's a truth universally acknowledged that each new season of "Love Is Blind” will be messier than the previous one. If, for some reason, this isn't a given, then the ample evidence Season 5 tosses on the table tells us it should be. But (pardon this metaphorical mash-up of literary references) in the same way that each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way, every season’s trash fire burns a bit differently.
This Houston-based fifth season has been one for books — and not in a good way. Past seasons featured absolute villains and aspirational love stories; this one has a few of the former and a paucity of the latter, yielding only two altar-bound couples out of the three who made it to the engagement stage.
