There is a (propane) fire that everyone ignites for themselves and sings, apart from a few words, “La Chicane in J’reviens chez nous”, a great classic of the Quebec camping repertoire.

It’s a perfect metaphor to end this “crazy” third chapter of L’île de l’amour on TVA, where the culmination of a romantic tête-à-tête is plucking five or six flowers from a dry grove and Club piscine cushions to arrange Cut three strawberries in half and drink juice with a metal straw on a treated wood deck.
The show’s head tanner, Hugo Brochu, a 26-year-old construction worker, has found his favorite tanner, Lorie Boucher, a 20-year-old beautician. Audiences fell in love with this boisterous but lovable duo, especially when fake surfer Hugo held out his cheek instead of his lips to the beautiful Mahyka during a game of Zou Kisses Kisses at Casa Amor, the part of the reality show that serves to tease the islanders to put to the test and to lead into temptation.
That crucial moment closed the doors of Lorie and Hugo 100%, no “healing”, no cracking, no draft followed afterwards. Las Terranas’ two most tanned lovebirds – some would say charred – beat out Love Island’s oldest couple Kevin and Enya, who have slept together from week one. They were cute, 24-year-old trainer Kevin Gagnon and 23-year-old nurse Enya Jaime. She called him her boyfriend. He called her his little person. They snuggled up to each other every night.
But how should I say it? They seemed very generic and boring compared to Lorie and Hugo, who entered into a heated relationship marked by fine-tuning and the banishment of “pleasure French”.
We’ll also recall that during the 28 episodes of Love Island, what bothered Hugo most was that Lorie “developed a genuine interest in another man.” As a concern, it’s still “entirely valid,” Bianka would clarify, before getting on Cédric’s nerves over the unsolicited testimony of his own feelings.
What will we remember from this third season of The Island of Love? That the male jacket is now worn without underneath. That the competitors say goodbye like a signature in a 5th grade graduation album: “Stay as you are, don’t change, we’ll see each other again soon, we won’t let go”.
And that Deandre, the 22-year-old web entrepreneur, packed his suitcase far too quickly. The latter, who “had a hard time letting his emotions out,” gushed over us like, “I like anything that smells like vanilla.” If there was a vanilla scent that felt good, wow,” he murmured Destiny, revealing the fact that he had never visited Sephora or the cosmetics department at Jean Coutu in the mornings. Rush hour shit shit from Ariana Grande’s cloud.
In two months of torch-lit ceremonies, we saw a variety of super-dramatic exits set to intense pop music, including that of the sardonic Tristan, the 26-year-old bartender, trainer, and construction worker. According to Émilie, who was “shattered” by the uncomfortable experience, after zigning against Dafney, Tristan “acted wrongly” and also “ate his eye,” according to Émilie.
Overwhelmed by the uncertainty on the terrace, Gabriele, 25, was reassured by his companions, with whom he shares “Shakes of Gainz”. “You were true to yourself,” said good Cédric, 28, poet and pulp and paper operator. Print this on a t-shirt, it’s in a hurry.
By the end of the course, even the text messages sent out by the production started talking: “Islands, put on (sic) your best clothes and your best clothes”! Dress up, dress up, we’re not going to be arguing over a vowel and two consonants when Victor “quickly breaks down because the girls stay with their boys,” right?

Nathalie and Pierre, a couple taking part in “If we still loved each other”.
Take a quick look at If We Still Loved Each Other, where brave Louise Sigouin has never pedaled as hard to get out of two difficult cases, Jérémie, the 28-year-old groundhog, and Lee, the 41-year-old year-old sulk to elicit full sentences. On Wednesday evening, the therapist even congratulated Jérémie, because he no longer expresses himself in onomatopoeia and now forms almost complete sentences.
We are making progress with Louise, but how disheartening it is to see so many men unable to achieve a modicum of introspection and communication.
For her part, Nathalie, 50, is redoubling her efforts to reconnect with her cutie. “I want to work hard so that we can continue to grow old together,” Nathalie whispered to her grandpa Pierre, borrowing a childlike voice that sounds like fingernails on a blackboard.
Then, when Louise asked Nathalie how she was showing her sexual interest in Pierre, she put her old slippers back on: “I usually grab his package and start teasing him.” Objective delicacy? Lost.
Finally, Emmanuelle, a fan of lychee liquor, an extreme mental stress taker, and a fan of light, humorous books, had our deepest sympathy to the point of developing prejudice against her boyfriend. “You work in construction, you’re not appreciated for your superior intelligence,” she said to Jeremy, who, true to himself, answered with a grunt only Hector could catch.
