Things have been tough. You’ve gone on dates but not felt that spark. You’ve given relationships a go but you’ve been unable to imagine yourself spending the rest of your life with that person – or perhaps they’ve been unable to imagine spending the rest of their life with you. You’ve tried it all: self-improvement, putting yourself in new social circles, giving different kinds of people a try. It hasn’t worked.
Where do you go from here? Do you just keep trying to live the best life you can on your own and hope that, somehow, love will find you as someone who is happy and complete in themselves? Absolutely not, you should go on TV.
There’s never been a more foolproof plan for finding love than allowing yourself to be paired with a stranger by TV producers whose primary goal is making sure conflict arises, after which you have to experience a hyperconcentrated version of the awkward ups and downs of an early relationship, all of which is being filmed. How could that possibly go wrong?
Luckily, if you can’t think of a single better way to be introduced to another single person, Married At First Sight is now casting for season 6.
Not just anyone can apply: you need to be over 25, an Australian resident of at least 2 years, able to prove that you are who you say you are, and (most importantly) “single and genuinely looking for love“.
After giving over your contact information, the casting call form wastes no time getting into the nitty-gritty. They want to know your weight, height, relationship with your parents, your biggest regret, your ideal Saturday night, your relationship history, and a host of other questions that make it sound something like a Voight-Kampff test. The show would also like links to all of your social media profiles, presumably to make sure you aren’t a huge racist (just in case).
If this sounds appealing to you, entries close June 1st. You can fill out the form here.
