How to Watch 'Love Island' in the US Because It's Time To Catch Up, People!
The British reality TV show Love Island is ICONIC. At this point, I would put it up there with tea and the Queen of England. It’s. That. Good. Don’t believe me? Just watch last year’s contestants talking about Brexit (although it may shatter any beliefs you have about all British people being super smart):
TBH Hayley, in hindsight I’m not sure the British government have any better idea of what Brexit is than you do.
Up until now, watching the Islanders’ weekly antics in the U.S. was so hard that it basically felt like trying to hack into Mi6 (Hello? Bond? I’ve finally got Love Island up!) People on Twitter were agonizing over the whole debacle:
i am not ashamed to admit i have been checking my @hulu multiple times a day for the last three days for my #LoveIsland season 5 to be uploaded in america. Stop disappointing me… I need it know! pic.twitter.com/BwHaJYTrXw
All I want to watch is Love Island UK 😪 but i’m in AMERICA
However, thanks to Hulu, that is changing!
Starting June 22, we can *finally* stream Love Island season 5 stateside! Every Saturday, Hulu will have 5 episodes of the show ready for our binging pleasure. However, be warned: in the UK, the show has been on the air almost every day since June 3, so stay off Twitter if you want to avoid any spoilers—there’s already been a *ton* of drama (would we expect anything less?)
You can also stream seasons 1-4 on Hulu now, confirming that the only sun I’ll be seeing in my summer will be via Love Island on my laptop. I HIGHLY recommend season 4, because, in case the Brexit clip wasn’t enough to convince you, it’s also full of some genuinely heartwarming and emosh moments. And lots of stupid ones. Both at the same time??
Plus, Love Island will soon be launching over here, so it’s basically everyone’s homework to watch the OG version to see whether this adaption is more The Office (yay!) or Skins (oh god, can we please forget that ever happened?)
