Love is Blind (2020-present)
Love Is Blind is a three-week dating reality television series created by Chris Coelen and produced by Kinetic Content that premiered on Netflix on February 13, 2020. The show is based on a social experiment in which single men and women look for love and get engaged before ever meeting in person. On March 24, 2022, Netflix renewed "Love Is Blind" for a fourth and fifth season. The fourth season of "Love is Blind" will premiere on March 24, 2023.
The series follows fifteen men and fifteen women from the same metropolitan area who are all looking for love. For ten days, the men and women date each other in specially designed "pods," where they can communicate through a speaker but cannot see each other. They are paired in a speed-dating format at first but can later opt for longer dates. When the daters are ready, they may extend a marriage proposal. A couple meets face-to-face only after accepting a marriage proposal. The engaged couples then travel to a resort for a couples' retreat. On this trip, they spend time getting to know their partners and have their first opportunity to be physically intimate. They also meet the other couples who are taking part.
Following the retreat, the engaged couples relocate to the same apartment complex in the city where they currently reside. They meet their partners' friends and families at the apartments and learn more about their partners' lives, delving into topics such as finances, recreation, personal habits, and their ultimate primary residence. They also intend to hold weddings at the end of four weeks. During the wedding planning period, a group of women goes wedding dress shopping and a group of men goes suit shopping, each with a few friends and/or family members. They also get to pick the design and flavor of their wedding cake. Each participant decides whether or not to say "I do" at the altar.
