Netflix’s popular series Jewish Matchmaking, which was released on May 3, 2023, features many Jewish citizens of different ages, trying to find their perfect partner. They are matched by Aleeza Ben Shalom, who follows the traditional shidduchim to find the perfect matches and to make sure that they get married.
Each cast member was seen meeting Aleeza to discuss what kind of a partner they are looking for and she proved her skills everytime by sending suitable partners on romantic dates. While some did not make it past the first date, others felt that they had just met the love of their lives.
However, so far, no cast member has made it past the chuppah - which is the canopy under which Jewish weddings happen. Also, no person from the show is currently dating the partners that were matched with by Aleeza, making this a failed social experiment.

Nakysha and Evan

The two were interested in making things work, but their relationship did not last long. Natasha is currently single and is looking for a “handsome bashert.”
She confessed that she learned the power of “being stingy” and wants a guy with a similar background.

He had said in front of the cameras that he was interested in pursuing a relationship with Tav but failed to connect with her. He now considers Aleeza a family member and Tav is currently living alone in Israel.
He also connected well with Ophir, but their relationship did not work out.

Fay has currently kept her relationship status private “in accordance with [her] community’s traditions.”
Cindy and Daniel
Cindy and Daniel were hitting it off before the latter arrived late on a date. Cindy did not think that this aligned with her values and she broke it off. She is currently dating a mystery man and is also focused on publishing her first book.
Harmonie and Ben
Harmonie went on many dates before finding a guy she was slightly attracted to. The couple was discussing their future together by the end of Jewish Matchmaking but it looks like things did not go as planned, given that Harmonie is still single and ready to mingle.

Netflix has not confirmed if Jewish Matchmaking will return for a second season. Since no couple from the show is together, it seems unlikely that the series will get a renewal.
