Columbian chick's twitter: @pao8705. Judging by recent pictures I think she's back in columbia...
apparently her and the guy are calling into the Opie & Anthony show tomorrow morning, if you've got siriusXM.

back for good or just going home for a bit? She's pretty attractive but destined to dump that guy once she gets her residency

Not sure if they are still together, but Russ and Paola did marry according to newspaper wedding announcements.
I also saw online somebody that worked with Alan claiming he went on his mission in college and that is when he met Kirylam's family. He kept in touch with the family after he returned to the United States, and fell in love with Kirylam after she grew up. So he likely first met her when she was 9-13 years old and he was 19-23. That is some fucked up shit. The Mormon Church comes down on your ass you aren't married and popping out LDS children by 25.

Just watched episode 4, downloaded on torrents.
Again this week, the foreign brides definitely came across as more attractive and sympathetic people than the local women. And I say that even with Louis's swamp monster of an ex-wife missing from the episode.
Alan is getting some serious twitching and jealousy going on. Like in the joke:
What do a gynecologist and the pizza delivery guy have in common?
They can smell it but they can't eat it.
Seeing the poor guy like that, I can't help but think of that scene in Wayne's World where Wayne walks off the set and leaves Garth all alone on camera.
Anyway, things moving towards a conclusion. Only two more episodes remaining. I'm guessing all four couples get married as planned.

I like the show but there are so many 'convenient' drama twists that it seems very scripted to me. The Brazilian girl got picked to be a model her 2nd or 3rd time out in LA (which is exactly what a frumpy, controlling, virgin mormon would fear the most). Makes for good TV. Granted she is cute but there are hundreds of hot girls walking around Venice Beach everyday. I may be overly skeptical but after meeting a chick that "wrote" for several MTV reality shows, you start to see the manufactured drama.
Not a bad show except the couples in Ohio and Indianapolis aren't very interesting. Wish there was one about a guy who comes back with a former Thai bar girl or masseuse. That would be fun to watch her trying to integrate into middle class suburban society.
How are you guys seeing the one about the gym owner guy? I've seen 4 episodes but never anything about couple.

I get it now, there aren't any actual shows with Len & Alina, just previews and he got cut before the show aired. Or if he was smart he cut it because he was about to get owned. Also she was crazy jealous and he wanted to "give her everything" .... damn that had entertainment promise.
I'm not sure there is a huge stigma in the US about dating girls half your age. It seems pretty common in the bigger cities among guys that are doing pretty well. It is definitely harder to pick up a hot girl half your age in the US however. I think the real stigma is if you sit down with your close friends and ask them if you marrying a poor girl half your age is a good idea (like they did on this reality show). The problems being: asking for their permission, her being poor and from another country. Especially if that country is known for mail-order brides (russia, phils, brazil, colombia). Convenient that the show picked girls from those countries even though a few of the couples met while traveling and not online. Good for drama when the these girls have to square off against the guys mother/sister/friend/brother etc.

"Bored" "Boring...but inevitably the malaise will set in."
Which is why some of us PREFER open relationships - even if (and when) married!
Because then the "boredom" doesn't set in - we trade traditional "fidelity" and monogamy for self-selected drama, increasing our hedonistic pleasures instead.

Interesting stuff. Girls are very hot...that Colombiana is amazing. Are most of these guys just these middle-America "average" dudes? I guess compared to the shit we do, they just seem so boring to me. They live in boring places too.
These girls don't know how boring these towns are. The Colombiana is going to have to stay with the guy and his parents. She is upset yet she know he still lived at home. I can already tell she's going to a wild one. He should of never brought her here.
+1000.
These girls will eventually get bored out of their minds, especially if they are headed to some 2nd or 3rd tier town (or living in the suburbs of almost any city). There's just not that much to do other than watch TV, head out the to mall, Costco or CVS and/or go to restaurant and pig out & get fat. You have to be seriously disciplined in the US to stay in shape, eat healthy, and keep yourself busy, particularly in suburbia. Plus, these girls will have very high expectations of life in the US and how glamorous it will be, which will quickly be shattered after just a few weeks/months of living here.
Most regions in America are pretty parochial too. And most Americans are woefully uninformed about international affairs, cultures and most things outside the US (outside the coastal cities like NYC/LA and maybe Miami I'd say). So I think these women will become disenchanted and feel like they were fed a bunch of lies about how great the US is (which they sort of were), in addition to getting bored with their lives. Having a kid might help keep them busy for a few years, but inevitably the malaise will set in.
Hell I get bored pretty quickly just after a couple weeks back home, even with the NFL playoffs going on))
On another note, it's funny but when I took a good hard look at all the women I'd say all four of them could be Russian or from the CIS, such is the ethnic diversity and makeup here....even the Filipina.

For those in the UK with sky TV, this show is now available via on demand on the TLC channel, called 90 Days to Wed.
Just watched episode 1 - the woman from Colombia is super hot!
Although the woman from the Philippines with the Fred Flintstone lookalike is clearly no model, but when compared to his ex-wife she is defiantly an upgrade.
Note how his ex-wife who has 2 kids and is probably a 2 out of 10 in the looks department has re married a bloke who is probably a 5/6 - says everything about how bad the dating scene is for alot of men.
Good luck to them all.

They're gonna need it.
Alina is a classic sponsor/gold digger and Len comes across as a bit of a controlling, somewhat desperate guy (even if he does seem to be confident and not afraid to approach). The fact that he's obsessing over this girl (and not trying to game the girls at his 'women's gym') makes me think he might have just got caught up in the allure of a Ukraine girl who blows away everything he's previously been with and/or he's 'feeling the clock ticking' and rushed into this too quickly. He's lucky he didn't marry her and have her come to the US and take half his stuff cause she damn sure was leaving him within a year after arrival.
His brother seemed pretty red-pill and it was cool to see him give it to Len straight and say it's not gonna work. So many guys don't do that.
Probably doesn't need to be said but Alina's been banging other dudes the whole time. Seems like she found her minigarch who's taking her to Turkey and everywhere else (or likely two of them) and her natural hypergamy just kicked in bigtime.
Next up: My guess is that smokeshow Paola (fake tits, tramp stamp and all) dumps her beta nice-guy boyfriend for a biker dude!
