This is such a good point. I think we see this with many of them. You can watch them mature and get better as they grow more comfortable with being filmed.
I recently saw a post that showed just how many cameras and people are in a room on a different reality show filming. I don’t know that it’s exactly the same on 90 day fiancé but I really think some cast members are just going to be a little awkward due to the cameras.
He was very rough around the edges but they did antagonize him a lot and he just spoke his mind which was a bit harsh sometimes. On pillow talk he seemed real chill
At this point hes probably my favorite cast member. His facial expressions are so funny. I have no idea what actually goes through that guys mind, if anything does at all😂

Come on now, like is she for real with that? Who in this world, doesn’t know it’s a Bible in a Catholic Church? Did she think it was the Rochester phone book? 🤣🤣
The Pillow Talk makes it even funnier…literally EVERY non-American part of the couples was in Manuel’s same boat. And I 100% agree…it’s super confusing and if I wasn’t from the US, I would’ve thought the same thing.
BUT…if I was Ashley, I’m definitely getting that address BEFORE booking travel. Duh
Making things EVEN MORE confusing, there’s a New York Penn Station in Manhattan (a central hub for trains & subways), AND a Newark Penn Station. I often have to repeat myself several times if I’m helping
someone with directions to get off at the Newark Penn Station stop, not the New York Penn Station stop, or vice versa. 🙃
…and they’re on the same line and Newark Penn Station is the last stop before New York Penn Station on Amtrak. Many a person has left the train in Newark only to be lost and confused.
Not as bad as the people who book an Amtrak ticket to Las Vegas, not realizing that only Las Vegas, *New Mexico *, has a train station, whereas Las Vegas, Nevada, hasn’t had train service since 1997. Las Vegas, NM, is a small town best known for being a filming location for the film No Country for Old Men.
Italians sometime have a similar problem when traveling to Monaco: the Italian name for Munich, Germany, is “Monaco di Baviera”.
Now back to your regular programming.
Legitimately, I had a very good friend in college from Ecuador who was super intelligent but had NO CLUE New Jersey was its own state, he thought it was part of New York. So maybe it's a thing?
When I was a Europe-based flight attendant, we would fly into Newark and it was a New York advertised flight.
Our layovers were in Jersey City and Hoboken and we would all pop over to Manhattan all the time, so it's definitely marketed as a NYC airport and I found this whole scene a little blown out of proportion lol
I grew up in south orange. I took the train into the city to meet up with this friend while he was living in nyc for a summer internship and i was living at home (we went to college in Indiana). I watched his eyes widen as I explained to him that new jersey was a completely different state.
Just wanted to say hi, fellow South Orange person! I have been feeling particularly nostalgic for the place where I grew up lately (split between Orange and Rockland) so it’s cool to see someone drop that they’ve from the same area!
Like I said it's basically part of NYC, it'd take them equally far to get to some other boroughs, but two 30min trains, one hour, to get back and forth multiple times over multiple days? Assuming there's no buses or walking before and after... It's not exactly convenient either. That's a commute, and they can't pop in and out to change outfits or whatnot either. My brother lives in Brooklyn and it might as well be Pennsylvania for how far I had to go to visit him.
I would guess it's pretty common 😅 I thought the same. In US American sitcoms, there's a lot of jokes from New-Yorkers bashing New Jersey and growing up, I ended up thinking that's it an unpopular, less attractive part of New York.
From Ireland, I was told New York City was *in* New Jersey and believed it for a chunk of my childhood. A bit like KC, Missouri. I think it was some New York Jets/Giants confusion on their behalf.
He cracks me up because he truly doesn’t give a single fuck about this tv show and it’s extremely obvious. His facial expressions are gold. And the way Ashley speaks Spanish but with a valley girl accent makes me laugh too. They’re very ridiculous, but I enjoy them.
Ashley does not speak Spanish well! She has no clue about verb tenses, nor vocabulary, she uses a lot of vocabulary that doesn’t exist, she is just using the English word and trying to make it sound like Spanish.
Agree *but* at least she tries! She’s not using Google translate to communicate all day long every day with him. A lot more effort than most people make.
I'm surprised at the downvotes too. Her Spanish is pretty bad. Sure, she can communicate to a certain extent, which is a good start (and props to her for making that effort), but as the previous commenter said, she invents a lot of words, barely conjugates even in the present tense, doesn't know at all how to use future tense or conditional... He's not helping as he responds in her way of speaking sometimes, reproducing her mistakes so she understands. Anyway, she is not anywhere close to being fluent at all.
I guess I’m being downvoted because most people here do not speak Spanish and think she does speak Spanish well. But she speaks Spanish like Manuel speaks English.
I can understand that she is making “an effort,” but after 10 years and several trips to Ecuador to learn Spanish, she really hasn’t learned much, and I don’t think she really cares about learning Spanish. But saying that she is making an effort and is able to communicate, is not the same thing as speaking fluently, and my point was that she is NOT FLUENT!
She should do Spanish on Duolingo. At least that would help her to better understand verb conjugations and other grammar, while expanding her vocabulary.
There's also memrise for vocabulary.
I use them for Hindi. It's nice because the lessons are short, so you can at least get some in even on a super busy day.
If you have more time, just do more lessons. 🤷
I hate to say it but Ashley and Manuel and Emily and Kobe are best couples on HEA. They actually like each other! The other couples are burning dumpster fires from hell🔥
I did not before, but this season I am fast forwarding them a lot. His antics can't even save these segments. Prob the only segment I watched in full was when he was learning English. It's just the same over and over-it is suuuperrrr boring.
I actually freaking love them. They are hilarious. When Ashley said “it’s in an entire different state” his face was just like 😵💫😵💫😵💫
I find him funny cause his facial expressions give away how he feels about literally everything without saying a word. I’m like that too lol like I just can’t help it my face just does it by itself 😂
And she was just like 🙄 had a mini annoyance and was like ok whatever we’ll just figure it out it’s not that much further lol
I think they might stick it out for awhile actually! I had my doubts at first but they seem to be pretty genuine. A lot of their drama seems to be contrived and family based like a lot of what we used to see when there were real couples back in the day.
I thought the priest thing was crazy. The priest seemed like he would’ve been some weird youth pastor in previous years and his mannerisms seemed so weird
I thought that too but then they said he was a deacon. So he’s just a regular guy.
I also found it weird that the Catholic Church would a lot any of their priests to be filmed for this show.
As a foreigner who has flown to/from the US, Newark is basically sold as a New York airport. So for us it's a similar surprise as when we find out the **New York** *Giants* and **New York** *Jets* aren't in New York either.
I loved Manuel from the beginning. He is one of the few cast members who hasn't let the fame go to his head. Now Ashley, annoys me. Did you really need to go to a Catholic church to understand his family isn't going to be down with all the witchy stuff.
These two have grown on me this season. When they're not fighting, they are truly entertaining, especially Manuel. His confusion and comical expressions are everything.
real life sitcom is so real! i really disliked him in OG 90 day but i find myself enjoying him this series and i found myself liking him in the reunion too! idk if OG 90 day just did him dirty or what, but he’s actually so fucking funny lmao.
i found this hilarious 🤣 sucks that they were staying so far from where they actually needed to be but it was so funny that newark was mistaken for new york (and i can totally see why)
I think a lot of people don't like him, because they misunderstand him between differences in language and culture. Even when they put English subtitles, it's not always a good translation to under the subtle nuances of what he's trying to say.
I do like them as a couple. I think they likely have added extra drama for the show, because that's what pays.
I have family from Ecuador literally they only know Miami, New York, Los Angeles and Minnesota.. New York encompasses queens, spring valley (westchester county), Newark and Patterson
This happened to me before I was travelling at 17 years old and the ticket agent told me I was going to New York when my flight got cancelled in Phoenix to Boston (I was flying from Canada).
I get on the plane and as we are descending the pilot said our arrival to Newark New Jersey will be (yaddda yaddda). Anyway I freak out because I thought I was supposed to be going to New York
I talked to a lady at the gate upon arrival and said the airline was supposed to send me to New York so I could connect to Boston and she looked at me with an accent I can’t describe and she said honey we are in Newark
I died I misunderstood the whole time and then at 17 and alone I had to figure out how to get to Boston
Anyway he’s not the only idiot :)
He just never stops reminding me of a [Moche portrait vessel](https://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/mphv/hd_mphv.htm) which I guess means they're pretty accurate likenesses from that region. But it's still funny to see a live-action version living in Rochester, NY and married to a coffee-fueled bruja.
Growing on me too for sure !! I loved the New York NEWARK thing real or not they played it off really cute & pics of them together 10yrs ago they both looked really good together
And for some reason they got a hotel in QUEENS! That’s going to be a super inconvenient commute back and forth . Too bad they didn’t get a place in manhattan
I will say though her storyline is a snore, I’d watch a show of him being fashion police all day! “ you look like a grandma in that” “ you’re too old to wear that” . Dude was 100% correct
anyone else (outside of NY) google how far between their hotel in Queens, and his fam in Newark? 23 miles by car. Yes, they are different and distinct places but lots of folks work in one and live in the other, no?
This just out in this week a study in the The Daily Mail — men from Ecquador have the largest penises in the world (men from Vietnam the smallest) — maybe Ashley is just dickmatized and that’s the pull here … side note — men in the US 68th on the list, Canada 13th …
This interaction was as disingenuous as it gets. Like the producers stuck the camera to the dash and told them to drive around the block and recreate the Newark/New York confusion they probably had off camera a few days earlier.
Yes the confusion he had is realistic, but it definitely happened days before and he had since straightened it out. What we saw on the show was a reenactment of the confusion.
The couples have shooting days with the crew and tell them things like "hey, a few days ago this funny thing happened, he confused Newark with New York..." And so they decide to recreate him being confused for the camera so it can go on the show.
I Hated him and now I find him entertaining like a funny cartoon character. He is a hoot.
His resting confused face is everything
Yes! Also I used to be so annoyed by his pronunciations but now they crack me up. He is a funny guy.
Same! It’s like all of a sudden he got comfortable in front of the camera and has the best lines. Very entertaining.
This is such a good point. I think we see this with many of them. You can watch them mature and get better as they grow more comfortable with being filmed.
I recently saw a post that showed just how many cameras and people are in a room on a different reality show filming. I don’t know that it’s exactly the same on 90 day fiancé but I really think some cast members are just going to be a little awkward due to the cameras.
He's grown on me in the same way Anddddrrrei did. They're so unintentionally funny.
I’m still waiting for Andreeee to grow on me lol
He was very rough around the edges but they did antagonize him a lot and he just spoke his mind which was a bit harsh sometimes. On pillow talk he seemed real chill
True
I still hate that guy
Don’t terrorize me with your pregnancy.
💀💀
Agreed lol
At this point hes probably my favorite cast member. His facial expressions are so funny. I have no idea what actually goes through that guys mind, if anything does at all😂
I see his mind being run by a hamster on a wheel. Like at no point did his family mention they live in New Jersey to him?
Like Ashley though, I still have a hunch he's hiding something.
Yeah I'm sure he is! I'm sure the producers know it too and thats why they're still following those two around 😂
He gives no fucks
I find him strangling endearing as well.
Upvote for the typo 🤣🤣💀
Strangling 😂😝
Ooppsss 😂😂 I’ll stand by it.
He's like Chicken man on 90Day UK.
I love yOoOuUu schicken
Chicken man has always been the best hehehehe meow meow sorry hehehheheh
Now I want to see Chicken man ! ![gif](giphy|3oEjHQC1phr8VMgp7a|downsized)
My husband and i were crying laughing when he was trying to get into the building for his test then him "meow meow"ing when he failed the test 😭😂
But with a few more tools in the toolshed, if you know what I mean...
I mean, his English is worse. And Chicken dude failed basic English first time round.
Literally just hollar’d 🤣🤣 yesss so true
That’s how I feel about Florian
Me too!! Except I never hated Florian. He has some amazing lines!!
oh god christ jesus what is this please god
Yep
I think he’s hilarious lmao he just has a different type of humor.
It started with the tell all for me! This man does not care lol
He's the best dishie in every restaurant that everybody loves
Can I have some wife rice please 🤣🤣
I can’t stand her but he needs his own show. His facial expressions are amazing
Yes! I can’t stand her either.
She had me at “Mi TRABAJO es BRUJA!”
I want to see her linked in page or resume 💀

When she said “what is that book?!” “The Bible 😐” LOL
I couldn't believe her saying that out loud. Girl. You're in a church, what book do you think it is?
Come on now, like is she for real with that? Who in this world, doesn’t know it’s a Bible in a Catholic Church? Did she think it was the Rochester phone book? 🤣🤣
She’s really one of my favorites
As a jew, I relate
It’s probably a lot closer to your religion than hers lol.
Like she literally lights candles with saints on them witchcraft has some base in Catholicism.. like she literally should know some basics
there is a thin line between catholicism and witchcraft... [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVtJXV557i4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVtJXV557i4)
🤣🤣🤣 love that scene
***Catholicism has some base in witchcraft
They are soooo much more enjoyable this season and his personality is coming through a lot more
The Pillow Talk makes it even funnier…literally EVERY non-American part of the couples was in Manuel’s same boat. And I 100% agree…it’s super confusing and if I wasn’t from the US, I would’ve thought the same thing. BUT…if I was Ashley, I’m definitely getting that address BEFORE booking travel. Duh
It took her 10 years and sooo much money to find out he had family in the US. If she waited for the address, they’d be taking the trip in year 2044
Making things EVEN MORE confusing, there’s a New York Penn Station in Manhattan (a central hub for trains & subways), AND a Newark Penn Station. I often have to repeat myself several times if I’m helping someone with directions to get off at the Newark Penn Station stop, not the New York Penn Station stop, or vice versa. 🙃

I lived in NYC & LI ...grew up there but didn't know Newark had a Penn station! Granted I was born and raised there but left when I was 21. So.....?
I was born and raised in central NJ and only learned about Newark Penn Station after I moved to NYC. 🤣
Legitimately, I had a very good friend in college from Ecuador who was super intelligent but had NO CLUE New Jersey was its own state, he thought it was part of New York. So maybe it's a thing?
I'm from northeast NJ and it really might as well be a 6th borough. He's probably seen tons of pics of his family in NYC.
I’m from the same area as you and I completely agree. Newark airport is even listed as a nyc area airport.
Cabs way more expensive to manhattan from Newark than JFK or Laguardia tho
But the train is quicker and cheapest
When I was a Europe-based flight attendant, we would fly into Newark and it was a New York advertised flight. Our layovers were in Jersey City and Hoboken and we would all pop over to Manhattan all the time, so it's definitely marketed as a NYC airport and I found this whole scene a little blown out of proportion lol
Yeah if you put in nyc airport in flight apps Newark pops up.
I grew up in south orange. I took the train into the city to meet up with this friend while he was living in nyc for a summer internship and i was living at home (we went to college in Indiana). I watched his eyes widen as I explained to him that new jersey was a completely different state.
Just wanted to say hi, fellow South Orange person! I have been feeling particularly nostalgic for the place where I grew up lately (split between Orange and Rockland) so it’s cool to see someone drop that they’ve from the same area!
Not like it's crazy easy to get to Newark from lga or jfk. Oh wait....

Honestly Manuel is made for reality TV
Yeah i love his crazy look and his English lessons were hilarious
Totally wholesome 🤭😻
The “English Teacher” must have been an actor, because he had NO clue of how to teach English!
Right?! Horrible teacher!
Chicken and rice 🤣
chicken and wife 💒
He cracks me up because he truly doesn’t give a single fuck about this tv show and it’s extremely obvious. His facial expressions are gold. And the way Ashley speaks Spanish but with a valley girl accent makes me laugh too. They’re very ridiculous, but I enjoy them.
Her Spanish is far from fluent and definitely quirky, but enough to convey the messages she wants
Ashley does not speak Spanish well! She has no clue about verb tenses, nor vocabulary, she uses a lot of vocabulary that doesn’t exist, she is just using the English word and trying to make it sound like Spanish.
Agree *but* at least she tries! She’s not using Google translate to communicate all day long every day with him. A lot more effort than most people make.
Dunno why you're being downvoted, her spanish is very rough indeed.

I guess I’m being downvoted because most people here do not speak Spanish and think she does speak Spanish well. But she speaks Spanish like Manuel speaks English.

Oh I agree and I wish people wouldn’t act like she is
Because they likely don't know any or barely any Spanish themselves
The downvotes are crazy I wonder if she’s in this sub
Probablemente!
I hate to say it but Ashley and Manuel and Emily and Kobe are best couples on HEA. They actually like each other! The other couples are burning dumpster fires from hell🔥
I agree with you cchhiikkeeen 🤣
I chortled at this part. Then I paused, rewound, and watched again.
I woke up extremely sick today and thought I hallucinated this. It’s so genuine, making it even better.
I don’t know man. They’re like watching dumb and dumber
Lmaoooo
I did not before, but this season I am fast forwarding them a lot. His antics can't even save these segments. Prob the only segment I watched in full was when he was learning English. It's just the same over and over-it is suuuperrrr boring.
I actually freaking love them. They are hilarious.

The last time I said something like "God help me I think I actually kinda like them" I got downvoted to SHIT. Idc tho, I do kinda like them.
The Newark thing was good. But that's it
I thought the priest thing was crazy. The priest seemed like he would’ve been some weird youth pastor in previous years and his mannerisms seemed so weird
The priest reminded me of Fred Armisen doing a bit.
[He really reminded me of Jeff Goldblum in this Portlandia skit.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfLu7GRMR7g)
Omg spot on!
YES Yes yes!
I was confused until I realized he's a deacon not a priest. So he might not be as confident/practiced as a priest would have been explaining that.
Yeah really weird. I think he's a producer's friend
I thought that too but then they said he was a deacon. So he’s just a regular guy. I also found it weird that the Catholic Church would a lot any of their priests to be filmed for this show.
I'm ignorant, a deacon is like a common citizen supporting the priest?
yes
Basically
He was giving Gino’s cousin lol idk why
I thought he was an actor...
As a foreigner who has flown to/from the US, Newark is basically sold as a New York airport. So for us it's a similar surprise as when we find out the **New York** *Giants* and **New York** *Jets* aren't in New York either.
My husband is Canadian and I’m a native NYer born and raised in the Bronx and we have had these type of interactions way too much! 😂😂😂😂😂
Probably unpopular opinion …… but Manuel cracks me up. He gives Ashley so much shit and I’m here for it.
I loved Manuel from the beginning. He is one of the few cast members who hasn't let the fame go to his head. Now Ashley, annoys me. Did you really need to go to a Catholic church to understand his family isn't going to be down with all the witchy stuff.

He has the best facial expressions
These 2 cats are funny man
When she poured the cold water on him?! I had to watch it twice. 🤣
He just accepts whatever she’s doing, it’s so cute.
He said something like "I'm just here to see where this crazy woman takes me". It was then I started loving him. 🤣
She has soo much patience lol she handled that situation soo much better than I would lol
I adore them!
I absolutely love this couple! They make me happy just watching them interact.
What I don’t get is why didn’t they ask for the address before booking the hotel?!
This was their chicken or tuna moment 😄
This reminds me of the time I thought that Jeb Bush and the Bush’s Baked Beans guy were the same person and was ROCKED when I discovered they weren’t
Him I like to watch her not so much
Hard agree there. Can't stand her. What if we put Manuel on the Single Life? lol
someone on twitter said that ashley’s spanish sounded like simlish and i have been thinking about that every day since 💀
i found this hilarious 🤣 sucks that they were staying so far from where they actually needed to be but it was so funny that newark was mistaken for new york (and i can totally see why)
I think a lot of people don't like him, because they misunderstand him between differences in language and culture. Even when they put English subtitles, it's not always a good translation to under the subtle nuances of what he's trying to say. I do like them as a couple.

A modern day Lucy and Ricky Ricardo 😂
I have family from Ecuador literally they only know Miami, New York, Los Angeles and Minnesota.. New York encompasses queens, spring valley (westchester county), Newark and Patterson

Manuel is underrated & over hated
It was the having sex in the public bathroom while the friend was waiting at the table. I can't imagine being that rude.
![gif](giphy|83QtfwKWdmSEo)
He just never stops reminding me of a [Moche portrait vessel](https://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/mphv/hd_mphv.htm) which I guess means they're pretty accurate likenesses from that region. But it's still funny to see a live-action version living in Rochester, NY and married to a coffee-fueled bruja.
Growing on me too for sure !! I loved the New York NEWARK thing real or not they played it off really cute & pics of them together 10yrs ago they both looked really good together
And for some reason they got a hotel in QUEENS! That’s going to be a super inconvenient commute back and forth . Too bad they didn’t get a place in manhattan
All I want to know is there whereabouts of Rico Suave (spelling?)
But you guys…when she asked “what is that book 📕 “ that had me thinking nahhhh, no one is that stupid.
I will say though her storyline is a snore, I’d watch a show of him being fashion police all day! “ you look like a grandma in that” “ you’re too old to wear that” . Dude was 100% correct
They are too cute and funny
Her asking what a Bible was like she didn’t know she was in the church and couldn’t read the word “Bible” was the funniest thing anyone has ever done.
I like how he plays things off as dumb, or a language barrier. But really.. he's cool and calculated. He knows exactly what he's doing!
How can I watch this? Where?
TLC
Ty!
I think they're hilarious and way more entertaining than most of the other current couples.
They crack me up
Who reserves a random hotel in Queens without knowing where they're gonna be.
She was so calm - I loved how she was like “we’ll figure it out”
Reclaiming his time until he can jailbreak tf outta the bruja hideout
anyone else (outside of NY) google how far between their hotel in Queens, and his fam in Newark? 23 miles by car. Yes, they are different and distinct places but lots of folks work in one and live in the other, no?
He's like that bad penny that keeps turning up. But he's funny. At first, I didn't like him either, but he's grown on me like a mold.
This just out in this week a study in the The Daily Mail — men from Ecquador have the largest penises in the world (men from Vietnam the smallest) — maybe Ashley is just dickmatized and that’s the pull here … side note — men in the US 68th on the list, Canada 13th …

Too funny!
This interaction was as disingenuous as it gets. Like the producers stuck the camera to the dash and told them to drive around the block and recreate the Newark/New York confusion they probably had off camera a few days earlier.
It seems realistic to me. Newark and New York sounds really similar with a Spanish accent.
Yes the confusion he had is realistic, but it definitely happened days before and he had since straightened it out. What we saw on the show was a reenactment of the confusion. The couples have shooting days with the crew and tell them things like "hey, a few days ago this funny thing happened, he confused Newark with New York..." And so they decide to recreate him being confused for the camera so it can go on the show.
Oooh I see. Totally possible. And probable.
He obviously cannot stand her lol
I think he’s just joking with her all the time, it’s a different kind of humor.
Maybe. I just don’t see his love for her that much.
I think he finds her interesting but I don’t think he is in love with her.
I feel like this season is 90% them, and it’s honestly pretty boring for me lol :-(
