"It's not my dish, I'm so frank!" "The unreliable uncles are no less than unreliable guys"... These words are not from Internet jokes or funny quotes, but from the uncles and aunts in the middle-aged and elderly blind date shows .

In the past few months, a number of middle-aged and elderly dating shows have become popular on the Internet, and some of them have even become a hot topic among young netizens.

Taking an elderly blind date program "Fate Come Not Too Late" on the Life Channel of Jilin Radio and TV Station as an example, it not only attracted a large number of loyal fans who watched it every day, but its multiple episodes have also become popular online.

  The reason why similar dating shows are popular is because they face the current situation of emotional life of contemporary middle-aged and elderly people.

Craving for emotional cuddles and finding a significant other to spend the rest of your life with is not the preserve of young people.

Behind the tens of millions of ratings and clicks are the most real emotional needs.

Through it, more and more middle-aged and elderly people can face their emotional needs, and their emotional distress, confusion and desire can also be heard and seen.

Understanding the loneliness and longings of middle-aged and elderly people through blind date programs, helping them solve practical problems, satisfying their emotional needs, and enjoying their old age in the way they like, this is the real "the most beautiful but red sunset".
