Netflix's Too Hot To Handle could be your next dating show obsession

From Cosmopolitan

While we're obviously over the moon Love Is Blind has been renewed for a second and third season, there's a new Netflix dating show that we're ready to get our teeth into.

This Spring, the streaming site has announced a new reality TV dating show, which unsurprisingly, contains a juicy twist. It's called Too Hot To Handle, and here's everything we know so far, from concept to release date and potential contestants. Ahh!

What is Too Hot To Handle about?

Think Love Island, only without any, er, touchy-feely time. Too Hot To Handle puts 10 single contestants in a villa together, and challenges them not to get up close and personal in a bid to win the top prize money: $100k. The more contestants break the rules, the more the prize money goes down. Ooh.

The official synopsis reads: "10 young, hot singles from around the world come together in a seaside paradise for what they think will be the most exotic and erotic summer of their lives— but there’s a twist. These commitment-phobes who love a casual hook-up, will have to give up all hanky panky for the entire retreat if they want to win the $100,000 grand prize.

"No kissing, no heavy petting, and no self-gratification of any kind. With every slip, the prize money goes down. In this luxury no-bone zone, will the serial singletons be able to form deeper emotional connections? Or will the temptation simply be too hot to handle?"

When will Too Hot To Handle be released?

We've not got long to wait! Season one of the dating series will be available to stream on Netflix from April 17th from 8am. That's one thing to look forward to in self isolation, eh?

Do we have a Too Hot To Handle trailer?

Sadly there isn't one yet, but before Love Is Blind dropped in full, Netflix did tease us with a teaser trailer, and then again before the Love Is Blind Reunion. So watch this space, basically!

Do we have a glimpse at the Too Hot To Handle contestants yet?

Sadly not yet! But hopefully, much like Love Island, Netflix will drop a gallery and bio for each of them a week before they head into the villa. Eek!
