Format

The series follows a dozen men and women who will eventually find love; however, throughout the process, they will never see their partners. For ten days in a speed dating format, the men and women will each enter different "pods" where they can talk to someone of the opposite sex. After the ten days, the men are able to propose to the women they want to get married to. After the proposal, they will reveal themselves to their partner, where they will see each other for the first time. Then they will move to the real world, where they will move in together and meet their partner's family. If their relationship survives in the real world, then they will get married.

Production

Filming

Filming took place in Atlanta, Georgia from September 2018 to November. All filming was completed in thirty-eight days. The first ten days in the pods were shot at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Fayetteville.[6] Then, after the newly engaged couples left the pods, filming took place at the Grand Veras Riviera Maya in Playa del Carmen, Mexico when all the couples went on a retreat. The relationships that made it through the retreat in Mexico move in together in an apartment complex.[7]

Casting

Release

The trailer for Love Is Blind was released on January 30, 2020.[8] With the trailer, it was announced that the series will be released on a three-week schedule, with the first five episodes being released on February 13, 2020, the next four being released on February 20, and the finale being released on February 27. The series will consist of ten episodes.[2]

Reception

Tricia Crimmins of Mashable reviewed the first five episodes of Love is Blind following their initial release on February 13, 2020. Comparing it to The Bachelor, Crimmins called the series the bizarre reality TV experiment you've been craving. She comments that you never know what the couples will do next, even down to the altar at the wedding, making the series "harmless, entertaining, and satisfying."[7]
