Too Hot to Handle Season 5 Episode 8 Rec...

Erika Heidewald
About this episode

We finally watched Too Hot to Handle and have found a truly worthy and unusual contender in Netflix's dating reality show stable. It's like watching No Exit by Jean-Paul Sartre, but this Hell is perfectly tailored to torture neurotypical Gen Z-ers. It's fantastic. Join us for our recap of episode 8 which manages to be longer than episode 8 itself!

Aliens Watching Reality TV is hosted by Erika Heidewald and Josh Shahryar, two reality show newbies who grew up feeling like aliens (turns out we're just autistic and ADHD) and love analyzing human behavior by watching reality TV dating shows on Netflix.
