Viewers are ready to boycott Season 18 after seeing the preview
The teaser was juicy, but MAFS fans were not impressed and made it known that they would not be watching.
“These previews are letting me know this is another horrible season. I’m choosing to walk away now,” exclaimed a viewer.
“I think I’m done. I don’t want the non-stop drama. Bring back old MAFS,” wrote someone else.
Someone reasoned, “They have hit a new LOW😭.”
Another MAFS viewer suggested, “Everybody needs to stop watching it, so they start listening to us. An article I read even said, ‘Season 18 promises more drama‘. That’s not what we want; we have been vocal about it.”
Another noted, “Doesn’t look like this season will be an improvement from the past couple of seasons. Too bad. Not watching.”
