Fellow Love Island fans have you seen the ad on 5* for this new show - Are you the one? sounds very similar to Love Island with couples hooking up and a prize of $1,000,000 at the end.
In this dating show that uses modern technology to help people find love, 20 single men and women try to find their perfect mates. A dating algorithm is used to help quantify compatibility, using a process that includes in-depth interviews, questionnaires and compatibility testing. That data is used to identify the ten ideal pairs among the 20 participants. But the results are kept a secret from the singles, who get to know one another socially and undergo weekly tests to try to pick their ideal mates while living together in Hawaii. If the mates they choose do not match that of the data, they must start their search over. If all 20 singles are able to match up with their predetermined partners within ten attempts, they share the largest cash prize ever awarded by an MTV show and walk away with a potential partner for life.
I believe it's already been played on MTV so some may have seen it already. But it may well fill the gap for those of us who enjoyed Love Island. I think I'll give it a try.
