He’s developed a cult following with his cynical sense of humour, and comedian Jordan Shanks left no Married At First Sight star untouched during his brutal review of the show’s first dinner party.
On his YouTube channel friendlyjordies on Sunday, the 30-year-old critiqued both the participants and so-called ‘love experts’ on the hit Channel Nine reality show.
Starting his review with footage of same-sex couple Tash Herz and Amanda Micallef arguing during their honeymoon, he couldn’t help but laugh.

‘Anyone who thinks that that fight was faked, you just haven’t been to the western suburbs,’ the Sydney-based comedian joked.
He then urged Amanda, 34, to move on from Tash, 31, who has been reluctant to pursue any sort of relationship with her new ‘bride’.
‘Why do you care about her? There’s a million of those in Australia. Anyone who liked The Veronicas a lot in their teens is her now. Just pick another one,’ he added.

And after ‘love expert’ Mel Schilling popped up on the screen, Jordan couldn’t hide his disbelief: ‘You again! What?! Haven’t you been fired?’
Another couple who seemed to rub Jordan the wrong way was Aleksandra Markovic and Ivan Sarakula.
‘Dude, word of advice, ditch that man. Just get a pet ferret! It’s the same thing, less maintenance,’ he urged Aleksandra, 32.

Later in the episode, Jordan had some choice words for Ivan: ‘I cannot stress this enough. Every element of you sucks.’
He also described the show’s customary dinner party as ‘a medieval banquet for poor people’.
‘Could you imagine being in that social situation as a normal human being and pretending everything they’re saying isn’t dumb as f**k?’ he added.

Jordan later branded the ‘love experts’ as ‘awful’, and described them as being like ‘the judges on Australian Idol, but without the b***hiness’.
After the experts said they’ve ‘never seen a dinner party like it’, Jordan couldn’t resist calling them out: ‘Honey, I’ve been here since season one. You have.’
But he saved his most scathing criticism for David Cannon, claiming he wasn’t the ‘nice guy’ the show was making him out to be.

‘He’s not a nice guy, he’s a whiny b***h,’ he said bluntly, after watching David complain about his new ‘wife’, Hayley Vernon, 32.
He then imitated one of the 31-year-old truck driver’s facial expressions and asked: ‘How can anyone love someone with this facial expression?’
‘You’re not a person, you’re a hot air balloon,’ he concluded.
