Theres just nothing like it, is there?

You want to know the exact moment I knewThe Perfect Couplewas right for me?

That we were in for a sudsy beach read in TV form?

It was the moment I saw those opening credits.

A choreographed group dance number to Meghan Trainors Criminals?

A vibe that says we are here to entertain.

This is all a compliment, by the way.

The Winburys are extremely loaded and come with all the pretentious fixings.

The champers is flowing!

The bride and groom-to-be seem excited and in love.

The wedding will be called off the investigation has begun.

Fanning plays the boundless entitlement and cutting passive aggressiveness with aplomb.

Abby is the scariest of mean girls the ones who do it all with a smile.

She is the worst and also the best.

Perhaps Greer spotted it, too.

Benji walks in right after Greer finds the receipt.

Hes there to talk to his mother about being nicer to Amelia.

You couldve just tipped me over into a coffin at that point.

She tells Benji that marriage doesnt necessarily mean devotion something we know shes dealing with at that very moment.

All of this anger and frustration might boil over at the exact wrong time for Merritt.

And speaking of Merritt, shes kind of the opposite of Greer in most ways.

Shes warm and open and free.

Merritt is sweet to Will, who just got dumped and definitely has a crush on Merritt.

Is it a strong enough crush to get overwhelmingly jealous?

She also seems quite attached to Amelia.

Could their closeness bother Benji?

And then theres the mysterious best man, Shooter Dival.

Amelias definitely lusting over him, but does he have anything to do with what happens to Merritt?

Okay, hi, hello, I am already obsessed with our police duo.

He certainly doesnt love the detective from out of town the DA sends in to babysit Detective Nikki Henry.

She is rough around the edges and does not give a shit.

Shes here to get the job done.

Although, she will admit when a donut is out of this world, shes not a monster.

They have a rough start but I cannot wait until these two become a real team.

It might have something to do with the bloody shirt shes hiding in her room.

Um, couldnt Amelia have found a window to free that ladybug?

Wouldve saved us all a lot of trouble.

Lets expect that to come into play at some point, right?
