Is anyone else watching this show on the FYI network? This season features an Modern Orthodox couple.

I watched 1 and 2 on the FYI website. I am having difficulty watching 3. It stopped at a certain point and I can't resume. Do you have a direct link to it on Youtube?
It's an interesting show, to say the least. Lots of whining and drama...

I never heard of it, but I checked it out on imdb and how (besides why????) would a modern orthodox couple be on it. I have never heard of arranged marriages within the modern orthodox community. Chasidish, yes, but highly unlikely (for good reason) they would ever be on tv like this.

They say in the show they were "arranged" by a shadchan. I think most of the couple on the show use a very loose definition of an "arranged" marriage.

ooh was waiting for a thread about this. only saw the first two episodes, but the modern orthodox couple must seem weird to the general public. Like when he insists he wants to live near other Jews so he can daven with them...
I was surprised how much his eyes popped when he first heard she was debating covering her hair (though his mother's hair is uncovered). They seem on two totally different levels of religious observance

He seems to be pretty controlling and their relationship is more tense than happy.

I just don't understand why they'd want to do something like this and risk making a fool of themsekves and ch"v all of modern Orthodox Jews...why would they go on this show!?!?
Also have a feeling Vicki has an Imamother account...she seems very into social media so can't imagine she doesn't!

Given the title "Arranged"I give my vote of confidence that this show will not portray Orthodox Jews in a positive light. Not even highly educated MO ones who do not have arranged marriages

I could only find short clips on YouTube. Anyone have full episode links?
It looks like a very tense relationship I feel bad for her. They dont look happy 
If they break up, it will be so so public poor them.
Why would they put themselves on TV like that???

Agreed. Also don't get Mayur (ha - another frum name) and Maneka. They are totally different socially, and if he keeps treating her like a lowly assistant she'll bolt.

Its more like their words are "arranged" on the show..to fit with the theme but it seems like they chose eachother.

The producer is a frum Jew so I wouldn't be so confident in what you are saying.
