Netflix’s popular blind‑dating series Love Is Blind launched its 11th season with a strong Boston identity. The opening sequence features the classic rock anthem “More Than a Feeling” by Boston, and co‑host Vanessa Lachey greets viewers with a booming “Hello Boston!” before introducing the cast.
Local references pepper the show
Early in the episode, a cast member sparks a debate comparing the New England Patriots’ legendary 28‑3 Super Bowl comeback to the resurrection of Jesus, highlighting the city’s love for both sports triumphs and faith‑based stories. Another participant, Stew, claims he has “Kennedy energy,” only to be told his vibe is more like former Governor Mitt Romney.
Boston‑centric details continue throughout the first five episodes. Two potential couples bond over their identical Dunkin’ orders, while Erika explains she named her dog Stanley after the Boston Bruins captured the Stanley Cup the year she adopted him. Irish‑born boxer‑bouncer Morrey, who speaks with a thick Boston accent, proudly identifies as a Southie native, though he originally hails from Braintree, and he was the one who launched the Patriots‑versus‑resurrection debate.
Release schedule
Episodes 1‑5 are already streaming on Netflix. Episodes 6‑8 will drop on October 21, episodes 9‑11 on October 28, the finale on November 4, and the reunion episode on November 8.
Fans of the series and Boston locals alike can enjoy the familiar regional touches that make this season feel like a love letter to the city.
