A New Dating Reality Show Is Coming to Netflix and It Has a Very…Bizarre Concept

Netflix has brought us reality dating shows like Love Is Blind, Too Hot to Handle and The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On. And now, the streaming service is launching another dating series that’s certainly making us raise an eyebrow.

The streaming service has just released the first official teaser for its new reality series titled, Dated & Related. OK, let us explain. The show revolves around single young adults who travel to a luxurious villa in South France to find love. The only catch? They must date alongside their siblings, who are also looking to find their soulmate.

From the uncomfortable double dates to the even more awkward conversations, we can’t help but ask ourselves: Have we really run out of dating show ideas? At one point, the narrator answers this question, saying, “Why would anyone do this? Because finding love is not easy.” (OMG, WHAT.)

Melinda Berry, who you may recognize from the second season of Too Hot to Handle, will be hosting the new reality show.

Before the teaser ends, one question is posed to the viewer: Could your sibling be the answer to finding everlasting love? Guess we’ll just have to watch the show to find out.

Dated & Related premieres on Netflix on September 2.
