From 'The Bachelor' and 'Love Island' to 'Love Is Blind,' Variety takes a closer look at some of the best dating shows through the years.
Each work for their own reason. Below,has gathered 19 of the best reality dating TV shows of all time. The below are not ranked, but are placed in alphabetical order.Premiering on MTV in 2014, “AYTO?” began as a group of singles that are secretly paired with “the one” via a matchmaking algorithm. All singles must live together and try to figure out who their perfect match is. If successful, the group splits a $1 million prize.
If you think about it, the MTV show was really ahead of its time. “Next” was basically swiping — but on TV.In the Kinetic Content series based on a Danish format, “MAFS” follows three to five couples who have been paired up by relationship experts, agreeing to meet for the first time at the altar. After tying the knot, they go on a honeymoon and live together for eight weeks until deciding to divorce or stay married. The show debuted on FYI in 2014, where it aired for four seasons.
On “Perfect Match,” stars from streaming shows like “Love Is Blind,” “Too Hot to Handle,” “The Circle,” “The Ultimatum” and more all come together to live under the same tropical roof as they frolic around in bikinis, drink too much alcohol from signature monochromatic cups and swap spit with each other, as they participate in challenges and obstacles on the beach.
While viewership has declined, the pop culture power of “The Bachelor” has not; its shows regularly lead ABC to win the night over their broadcast competitors, and the brand recognition of the franchise is immeasurable . Of course, with millions of fans also comes critics, and the franchise is no stranger to controversy.
That’s essentially the premise of “Too Hot to Handle,” which was Netflix’s second hit in the dating genre, following its pandemic breakout “Love Is Blind.” As the world was on lockdown, eyes were fixated on the screen as reality stars were forbidden from kissing or any other sexual contact. As for the prize? Well, the pot of money shrinks every time someone breaks the rules.
