The highly anticipated live reunion of “Love is Blind” season 4, which was supposed to air on Netflix on Sunday, April 16, has been delayed due to technical difficulties. It is Netflix’s second-ever “live” event, and fans were left hanging for more than an hour as they signed in to watch the reunion special. Despite technical problems, the reunion episode finally made it to the airwaves on Monday, April 17, at 12 p.m. Eastern Time (Deadline).
Netflix apologized for the delay and acknowledged that the delay caused a lot of frustration for viewers. The live reunion was plagued by technical glitches, making it impossible for fans to watch the show as scheduled. Instead, they had to wait for more than an hour for the show to be fixed.
While Netflix has not yet revealed the cause of the technical difficulty, viewers have expressed their disappointment on social media. Many took to Twitter to vent their frustration, with some referencing Netflix’s recent announcement of a price hike while others voiced their frustration with the streaming service’s response to the issue.
Despite the glitches, the “Love is Blind” reunion special saw castmates owning up to their mistakes and clear the air on any misunderstandings from the season 4 show. However, it’s unclear if the technical difficulties had any impact on the content of the show (The Hollywood Reporter).
This delay is significant as it was part of Netflix’s rare foray into live content. The streaming giant has been investing heavily in unscripted content like “Love is Blind,” a dating show where participants date in pods with no visual contact before proposing. The show has been a hit among viewers, but the technical difficulties surrounding the reunion episode of season 4 have left many disappointed and frustrated (The New York Times).
Although there has been no confirmation on when the issue will be resolved, Netflix promised that the reunion special will air soon. In the meantime, fans will have to wait for another update from the streaming giant.
