TRAILER
About “LoveAfterLockup” Season 2 The second season of LoveAfterLockup will follow 6 couples, who fell in love and got engaged while one was incarcerated. We will meet each couple just prior to the jailed partner’s release and follow them on their journey to –potentially –the marriage altar. In S2 the debate between true love v. scam will be even more pronounced, and the “firsts” will be even more abundant–first touch, first kiss, moving in together, meeting the family, etc… Between the stories we follow and the way we follow them (from visually dramatic releases to raw shocking reveals), S2 will amplify the best elements of LAL and take us down new paths of love, mystery, heartbreak, and drama. While each of our couples has their own unique stories, all of them will be going through the same journey over the season—from prison to the altar.
My thoughts: I will be honest, I was pretty skeptical on how entertaining this show would be. I am not about drama reality tv, but this is not just drama – these storylines are crazy. I didn’t even think about a world of people who are actually finding love with people who are incarcerated. I know it sounds nuts, but everyone needs love too right?
Well you got your cases of people falling in love with inmates on their sex appeal, people falling in love with an inmate and possibly the inmate is using someone for financial gain only, and then we have a really interesting case; someone looking to lose their virginity to their inmate lover and marry them. Ok that one was a little much for me. A 28 year old virgin who is also engaged to her inmate fiance and saving herself for him when he gets out. I want to tell you more about this girl and that story alone, but lets just say DONT DO IT GIRL!
Mostly all of the couples who are on this show are looking towards marriage, moving in and really starting a new life when they are all getting release and the cameras will be rolling to see it all unfold. I will be following this series, I have to see how far these relationships will go.
LOVE AFTER LOCKUP returns on WETV Friday, December 7th at 9/8C

This show looks interesting. I just watched the youtube video and it looks pretty good. I will check this show out. Always looking for good shows to watch.
I don’t really know much about this show but it sounds interesting. I could probably get into it. I wonder how successful the relationships are after they are free again?
I have not heard of this show until now. It does look interesting. I am planning to binge watch on the day after Christmas so you can be sure I will check this show out.
I have watched this show and I dont get it. It aint no way in hell I would marry, date, talk, look at, or make eye contact with anyone who has been in jail but hey if these folk like I love it.
I can’t even lie, I enjoy some reality tv here and there! This show sounds really interesting, I’m gonna have to give it a watch! Also congrats on your engagement!
I have recently discovered this show and it is hilarious to say the least. These storylines are amazing. One couple seems genuine..the rest are .. Well A MESS !
The premise of the show doesn’t have a personal appeal to me, but the character appears to be interesting. I may try watching just to see how the concept unfolds.
I’ve yet to watch this show, but it sounds really interesting. Sounds like a more positive reality show in the sea of a lot of drama and chaos on many shows!
I am hooked to this show! I watched the first season and am currently watching the second. Like you mentioned the story lines are CRAZYYYY! I even have my friends watching it too
I haven’t watched the show but I can’t see myself dating someone that has been locked up. That is just crazy to me but I know everybody needs a second chance
Wow! Honestly the thought a show like this sounds crazy, but I’m sure interesting. I’ve heard of this and even know of a woman in my town, who fell in love with a prisoner and married him while locked up. And get this: they are still together!
This scenario plays out every time someone is released from prison. I’m glad that someone finally decided to put eyes (REAL EYES) on this situation. It’s reality tv, but it’s also educational. Glad to see that there is something good coming out of reality tv for a change.

Such an interesting idea for a reality TV show! Can’t say that I’ve heard of it before, but it sure sounds entertaining.

Oh wow! Some of those stories sound crazy. But that’s to be expected with a show like this I guess.
I’ve yet to watch this show, but it sounds really interesting. Sounds like a more positive reality show in the sea of a lot of drama and chaos on many shows!

The premise of the show definitely makes sense. I’m glad someone has found a way to help them make money and find love after lockup, that’s a win win.
