A new dating show, Perfect Match, is releasing on Netflix today and promises to rival Love Island in the drama department.
If you thought Love Is Blind was messy, strap yourself in for a rollercoaster ride as bosses have gathered some of the singletons from the pods, along with others from their biggest reality shows, including Too Hot To Handle, The Ultimatum and The Circle.
They have all been shipped off to a villa to mingle and find romance, with one couple being crowned the ‘perfect match’ at the very end of the series – after some twists and turns, of course.
Here is all you need to know about your new Netflix obsession…
Who is in the cast of Perfect Match?
Some of the most famously single stars from the streaming platform’s biggest unscripted shows have been given a second – or third – chance to find love in the new program.

Love Is Blind favorites Shayne Jansen, Bartise Bowden, Diamond Jack, Lauren ‘LC’ Chamblin and Damian Powers will be swapping their pods for more spacious surroundings as they look for their perfect match in paradise.
It might be an awkward reunion for Damian as he will be reuniting with Francesca Farago, from Too Hot To Handle – after their close friendship sparked romance rumors.
Francesca will be joined by fellow Too Hot To Handle castmates Izzy Fairthorne, Chase DeMoor, Georgia Hassarati and Chloe Veitch – who also competed in the Circle.
