Many TLC viewers are disappointed that their favorite 90 Day Fiance shows have been moved to Discovery +. They think that the network is simply trying to make more without considering their audience's preferences. Many fans have decided not to pay for Discovery+. They are consistently bashing TLC on various 90 Day Fiance fan pages. Still, it seems like the subscription fee appears to be pretty nominal compared to the amount of entertaining and dramatic content the network is providing.
As soon as the 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way season 2 ended, viewers were looking for its Tell-All special. But, the network decided to replace the Tell-All episodes with 90 Day Bares All and nudged its viewers to pay for a new streaming platform to watch it. Most fans, who are already paying for regular cable, Netflix, Hulu, and Disney+ felt cheated by TLC and refused to pay $5/month for another app. The 90 Day Bares All premiered on January 4. It has been weeks, but still, the majority of people are resisting subscribing to Discovery+.
Well, it's true that fans weren't expecting that Discovery would come up with this money-making scheme amid the global pandemic when people are already dealing with so much uncertainty in their lives. Still, Discovery+ appears to be a good value. At $5 a month, fans have unlimited access to all the 90 Day Fiance love stories. They get multiple shows like 90 Day Journey, 90 Day Fiancé: Love Games, 90 Day Bares All, 90 Day Diaries, and The Other Way Strikes Back! The app also has other spin-offs like Darcey & Stacey and The Family Chantel.
TLC promised that the 90 Day Bares All will feature the behind the scenes that were too racy for regular TV. And they did deliver on their promises by sharing Brandon Gibbs and Julia Trubkina's intimate scene. Similarly, 90 Day Journey gives fans a chance to follow their favorite TLC couples right from the beginning to the present day. This show is curated in a way that fans won't have to look for different spin-offs to watch a particular couple's journey. Newbies can quickly catch up on all the drama, and fanatics get to rewatch a pair's ups and downs. If fans are bored watching these couples, they have the option to tune in to 90 Day: The Single Life. In this show, they can follow six former TLC stars who are navigating through single life.
Plus, there is going to be a gaming spin-off, 90 Day Fiancé: Love Games with the former castmates. This new fun series is hosted by Sukanya Krishnan, who is experienced yet bubbly. She has previously hosted TLC's relationship show called Find Love Live.
TLC has made its shows exclusive to the audience residing in the United States. It shows that they may not quite be "money-hungry." Many Canadians and Indians wish to access the app, but they can't without a VPN. So, it looks like Americans have earned this privilege! Perhaps 90 Day Fiance fans can try buying the Discovery+ membership for a month. If they don't like it, they can always discontinue it.
