9 ‘Married at First Sight’ Secrets That’ll Make You Wonder Why People Still Sign Up

The "social experiment" show Married at First Sight has been a national guilty pleasure since its 2014 debut. As crazy as the premise is (strangers marrying each other on TV), the show has had a 66 percent success rate.

The whole thing is no easy feat and it makes us wonder how they still manage to find people willing to subject themselves to such a daunting process. But according to past couples, even ones who've gotten divorced, they have no regrets. Below, nine secrets about the show, revealed.
