Sprite wrote:@kiwilaura80 Thank you. I was wondering. Nice to know that Richie and Mike remain friends. I wonder why Richie is staying there?

I would say it’s because he has moved to Auckland and is now flatting at Mike’s.

Thanks for all the updates @Sprite.

I enjoyed reading along all season!!

Just watching the ATFR episode now.

This moment was adorable: Lily saying she's "done" with reality TV now that she's found Richie, Art saying "so you're going to settle down now and have kids..." to which Lily and Richie both threw up in their mouths a little.  They are clearly on the same page re: kids, which is a large part of what was missing with Courtney IMO.  





And this moment was very telling: Mike explaining to Lesina that he felt like he gave her more than he received in return, while she rolled her eyes and turned away from him in what seemed like a disproportionately rude/intense reaction.  I predict Lesina's "friends" might have a few more things to say if he is named next Bach.

Also shout out to these two, both of whom I expected to despise but was pleasantly surprised and a little charmed by:



And to Lesina's Mum for running up with the Kleenex. She may be a ball buster but there's no doubt she loves her girl.







And finally to Aaron.  If all the rumours and first hand accounts about him being a player are true, he probably got a taste of his own medicine, but overall I think Lesina used him as an emotional crutch throughout the season and he has a right to feel led on.  Lesina should have cut ties after she sent him packing IMO.



Overall this season was a mess and felt like 4-5 disparate shows rolled into one.  But I'm satisfied with the outcome and will continue to follow Lily (and Richie... for now ) to see what they get up to.  Lesina I have already unfollowed but I wish her well and good luck finding someone who has all the "right" answers to her long... L O N G list of questions.

It has seriously been such a roller coaster of a season. 32 episodes later it has ended.

But I do wonder where Elliot was during the AFR, cause he brings character to the show.
Apparently, he turned up but TPTB didn't allow him to sit on stage with the other boys.??

@greentoolcat perhaps he was the one who they thought could possibly have coronavirus?
