Charlotte, get ready to celebrate because our lovely city has truly found its moment in the spotlight, thanks to the sensational Season 6 of Love is Blind! Originally premiered in early 2020 during the pandemic, the show managed to snag its audience right off the bat, but the subsequent seasons didn’t quite make the same impact. That all changed this year when Charlotte singles took center stage, bringing a fresh wave of excitement and romance to Netflix.
In September 2022, a casting call hit social media, specifically looking for fabulous singles from our charming Queen City. Fast forward to January 2023, and we were introduced to thirty lovely singles, each shining bright in their glam photo ops. Think purple backgrounds and plenty of charisma! The series kicked off its first six episodes on Valentine’s Day, and what a sweet gift it was for our reality TV lovers.
Oh boy, did we get an eclectic group! Huddling in those voice-only dating pods, our singles showcased a variety of personalities. There was hot single mom and EpiPen ambassador Jess, charming mulleted Trevor, the wise-beyond-her-years A.D., sweet Brittany, and slightly immature Chelsea. Let’s not forget Laura, who appeared ready for her own crime docuseries with her sharp critiques, deer-in-the-headlights Jimmy, and the questionable Jeramey. And how could we overlook Clay, who just screams “potential trouble”? The cast was colorful, relatable, and decidedly entertaining!
One character, Matthew, caused a stir right after his dramatic exit in Episode 2. While viewers nationwide scratched their heads, local ladies recognized him as the quintessential “banker bro”—you know, the type we’ve encountered before! It sparked quite a conversation around town!
Who knew our quaint southern metropolis would grip the nation? It turned out, Season 6 became the most-watched season and dominated viewership across all streaming platforms in March! The excitement didn’t stop with viewers in Charlotte, either. Celebrities noticed! Kim Kardashian shared how she couldn’t stop binge-watching, Travis Kelce gave a shoutout on his podcast about Chelsea’s personality, and even Hollywood elite like Gwyneth Paltrow and Bradley Cooper admitted to tuning in. Rumor has it, Megan Fox caught people’s attention at Oscar parties, all thanks to a comparison to Chelsea!
As the cameras rolled, they took us to the trendiest spots around town including Margaux’s, Queen Park Social, and even Carowinds. Locations like The Goodyear House, Rosie’s Wine Garden, and the Whitewater Center found themselves sharing the screen with our local love stories. Lost & Found, although not a filming location, was hilariously referenced during the on-screen confrontations—talk about real-life connections!
While Amy and Johnny snagged the only marriage from this season, let’s face it: Charlotte emerged as the ultimate winner! With all the attention and love surrounding our locale, it’s thrilling to imagine what could be next. How about we kickstart a Real Housewives franchise? Who wouldn’t want to watch riveting drama unfold right here in our community?
So, here’s to our community of singles and the unpredictable journey of love, all while putting Charlotte on the map! Cheers to new romances, unforgettable TV moments, and who knows what’s next for the Queen City!
