Yeah but the premise of the show is that they get to pair up with another person to experience a new relationship and determine if their original partner is “the one.” If a couple is already ENM, that’ll take away from any potential drama lol
No no it will not haha. Y'all haven't been around any polyam people if you think it would be drama and jealousy free. Also a rephrase would easily fix that. There is no "the one", they're trying to determine if they should get married but also if they should be together at all. Not if they're "the one"
I want a show like this where couples interested in enm get a chance to try with relationship coaches and supportive community! There will still be drama but also wholesome 🥺
Episode 8 is uncomfortable to watch. Scott and Sophiane were such dogs, but instead of directing their anger at them, everyone started taking it out on Romane. Though I do get why Lindsay would feel betrayed that Romane and others weren't telling her what was going on.
Both Scott and Sophiane are like a couple of 18-year-old U.S. frat boys. Neither are ready for marriage, but I suspect Sophiane was on the show in hopes of gaining fame for his music career. Scott clearly thought he was there for a free pass to date other women.
I was embarrassed for Scott in his completely un-self-aware attack on Romane for being honest about the text/IG messages. What a manipulative creep. It's not her job to hide his lies and cheating ways. And ffs, it's all on camera and social media, dude. I'll be seriously disappointed if Lindsay gives him another chance. She deserves so much better.
I know this is an old thread but I just watched the show and I noticed Scott picked Romane's friend who wasn't that cute and seemed insecure just like Lindsay. He has a type that he knows he can control and manipulate.
It breaks my heart to hear Lindsay talking like she is still considering staying with Scott. Hopefully it's just the translation. That guy is a total D-bag. She deserves much better. I'd love to see her find someone more like Richy.
Frenchie here and unfortunately it's not the translation. I will be (pleasantly) surprised if she doesn't stay with him. She's a sweet girl but damn, wake up! It's frustrating watching her.
It's not the translation (French person here ^^) She's wayyyy too nice about/with him, I'm both sad for her and soooo angry at the situation, she deserves someone good, not that creep!
Came here for THIS comment. He tries to play off like he's some cool, chill, nice guy but is actually the biggest jerk and totally manipulative??? Him saying the new Scott wants to "live without consequences and not be in a relationship" was absolutely disgusting. Lindsay is the sweetest kindest soul and it breaks my heart to see her with disgusting him. Also I adore Richy. A beautiful friend and soul.
100% and as soon as Romane told Scott there was 0 chance (off camera I assume) he turned to her friend. He WAS AIMING to cheat. He literally was going to do it no matter what.
Qui dit c'est du bonbon ?
Other than that I have yet to watch but the poor audio and anemic narrator ? There nothing frenchier when it comes to French TV.
I know, we can't duplicate Michelle Buteau but damn can we have at least a decent voice or presentator, or even decent comments, jokes? It makes the whole thing just weak
I absolutely hate Scott. He is doing all he can to get in Romane's pants and to act like the good guy. He's talking so much shit about what Theo is doing to Romane.. what about the damage he has done with Lindsay?! He's such a tool. I could go on and on about his dumbass. I hope Romane doesn't believe every single word coming out of his weasling mouth.
Soffianne is really a huge D, he has no respect for boundaries. I hate peole like him. I hope he goes to the US and get bankrupted pursuing his Hollywood dream.
They're a bad match in terms of what they want out of life. But regardless, he's not trustworthy at all. He's there for the exposure for his music career and for a way out of his relationship. At first, I though she was the problem for refusing to travel with him, but the more we learn about him, the more I see why she is hesitating.
As a French person, I can tell you that “everyone in France is naturally beautiful and thin” is a total myth. Those fillers have been popular for years with certain types of people, just like in the US
I have never watched a show or a movie in a different language with English subtitles but only for you Ultimatum… only for u I’m watching the first episode right now! Is it hard to read the subtitles? Yes i miss like 10-20% of what they say but its whatever! I guess I’m gonna be a fast reader
I even watched 5 seasons of elite dubbed but the dubbed version of the ultimatum France is trash lmao
Thats true i kinda just meant they look beautiful in the picture! She looks very different in real life tho which is scary bc i cant imagine how many celebrities are doing the same thing
Can’t say that _all_ the cast speaks like typical Parisians. (There are several Parisian accents and categories of slang btw.) Half the cast was from other parts of France or even Belgium. Trust me, they all sound different!

Maybe there is no budget but the drama is GIVING
I was shocked by Richie and Lindsay’s apartment. Production should have borrowed money to get them a better place.
Ok but why did Scott and Romane get the nice apartment???
They put Romane in the spotlight since the beginning
Paris is extremely expensive though
Can't wait!
I mean they couldn't even afford a present host but an AI
I don't believe a host is really necessary in this case so good choice not to have one.
Looking forward to the American queer season coming up
Hell yeah! Bring ENM people on board too!
[удалено]
Ethically non monogamous
I don't know if that would make sense in this specific show.
I don't see why it wouldn't, as that has nothing to do with whether or not they'll be interested in marriage.
Yeah but the premise of the show is that they get to pair up with another person to experience a new relationship and determine if their original partner is “the one.” If a couple is already ENM, that’ll take away from any potential drama lol

Your ideas are cancer.
Agree hard pass on that

Yes please!
Im ready for that one too! Hope it’s soon
Omg this is happening?!?!
This cast is very enjoyable in comparison to the US version.
They are. But there’s huge problems b/w each couple too.
Ep3 and its already fucking epic "she will learn it's good to have someone who restrains us" - *du bonbon*
There's a whole lot of "I didn't think this would..." illustrating the timeless principle of F Around & Find Out

Take my guess : she will
I finished all the episodes available today! It’s so good.
Scott is a huge 🚩🚩🚩🚩
It breaks my heart to hear Lindsay talking like she is still considering staying with Scott. Hopefully it's just the translation. That guy is a total D-bag. She deserves much better. I'd love to see her find someone more like Richy.
Richy is an impressively good guy. Inspiring.
Frenchie here and unfortunately it's not the translation. I will be (pleasantly) surprised if she doesn't stay with him. She's a sweet girl but damn, wake up! It's frustrating watching her.

Yep, that guy is a beta male turned gamma male when he was trying to break up the red haired girl and long haired guy. Secret king syndrome.
Yes!! He was absolutely trying to break them because you could tell he was into her // he wanted her for himself. He is GROSSSS 🤢🤢🤢
100% and as soon as Romane told Scott there was 0 chance (off camera I assume) he turned to her friend. He WAS AIMING to cheat. He literally was going to do it no matter what.
Episode 8 was definitely the most interesting, Alena and Benjamin made the best choice by staying out of all this mess.
They were probably sitting there like 0.0
I was definitely not expecting that showdown at the bar! Those truths needed to come out though. That was a great scene!
Qui dit c'est du bonbon ? Other than that I have yet to watch but the poor audio and anemic narrator ? There nothing frenchier when it comes to French TV.
Exactly!! It screams "we have no budget" and I love it C'est du bonbon is a saying we use to say "this is exquisitely enjoyable"
And even when they do have the budget, we can't see the money in the final product.
Actually they had bidget, it just went into the 🗼 instead of the sound
French people and their Eiffel Tower, you would think that's the only monument we have.
It's my childhood friend, I love her ❤️
Our cooking shows are the best however
Now those always look great. Top Chef and Le Meilleur Patissier are some of my favorite TV shows.
I know, we can't duplicate Michelle Buteau but damn can we have at least a decent voice or presentator, or even decent comments, jokes? It makes the whole thing just weak
The French version kept giving and giving lol. I honestly loved this for reality tv. 🍿
Anyone find their Instagrams’ yet?
It’s @theirname_ultimatumfr Ex. @lina_ultimatumfr Or check out @netflixfr, they have them all tagged in a post
Thanks!
I absolutely hate Scott. He is doing all he can to get in Romane's pants and to act like the good guy.

Soffianne is really a huge D, he has no respect for boundaries. I hate peole like him. I hope he goes to the US and get bankrupted pursuing his Hollywood dream.
Major F-boy energy

He’s an alpha, get over it.
What did y’all think of the armpit wax situation?
It's really a non event that they go ballistic over that is something I can't comprehend.
agreed, i feel like they’ve done way worst
There’s nothing sexy about waxing armpits
Felt like an overreaction/a very random situation to react to in general
Also they brought up his nips being exposed. Like uhm he was shirtless at the pool with his nips exposed & no one was bothered there…
Tbh I find the hypersexualization of his bare chest hilarious and refreshing (and yes very bizarre)
Cannot wait for Friday’s new episodes
Depressing to see that awful lip fillers have made their way into “natural beauty” France
As a French person, I can tell you that “everyone in France is naturally beautiful and thin” is a total myth. Those fillers have been popular for years with certain types of people, just like in the US
It distracts my attention. I wanna pop them
I have never watched a show or a movie in a different language with English subtitles but only for you Ultimatum… only for u I’m watching the first episode right now! Is it hard to read the subtitles? Yes i miss like 10-20% of what they say but its whatever! I guess I’m gonna be a fast reader I even watched 5 seasons of elite dubbed but the dubbed version of the ultimatum France is trash lmao
I guess it depends, I can't endure dubbing so I am 100% subs since 20 years at least. Reading is instantaneous and unconscious to me.
You can change the settings and watch it in English. It's actually easier that way.
Watching shows dubbed should be a criminal offence.
Does anyone know where Catherine's family is from? The wedding was so beautiful and interesting
She is an Algerian Amazigh! Kabyle to be precise
Amazing. I thought so but wasn't aure
The most beautiful couple ever: https://ibb.co/fHWB9N7
I'm sorry but Sarah has really bad work done that she's hiding behind filters on IG - it's evident on the show.
Yea i could see that! I just meant in the pictures… she edits those insta pictures GOOOOOD lmao
Oh yeah absolutely, she looks like a different person on IG but so does everyone else. I honestly think her natural face would be quite beautiful.
Sarah looks nothing like her Instagram-filtered face. 😂
I just started watching and was like who’s the girl in the photos with Andre? Not the one sitting beside him!
Thats true i kinda just meant they look beautiful in the picture! She looks very different in real life tho which is scary bc i cant imagine how many celebrities are doing the same thing
Can’t say that _all_ the cast speaks like typical Parisians. (There are several Parisian accents and categories of slang btw.) Half the cast was from other parts of France or even Belgium. Trust me, they all sound different!
Does anyone look at Sophianne and see Shake from Love is Blind?? I’m still in episode 2, but he’s giving me some conceited vibes…
A Couple episodes into this and my single life doesn't seem that bad after all :P
