Netflix has a new dating show coming where contestants date alongside their siblings

It’s hosted by Melinda from Too Hot To Handle!


I need you all to stop what you’re doing, because Netflix has a new dating show coming and it sounds equal parts unhinged and absolutely wild. The premise is pretty simple, it’s called Dated and Related because the cast do lots of dating, and the dates are all alongside their siblings.

At first, that might sound like quite a decent idea. But it’s looking as though things get pretty awkward when you put that into practice. Here’s everything you need to know about the new series, before you inevitably get hooked on it.

Dated and Related sees contestants matched up with potential partners with their siblings

Dated and Related is a 10-part dating show and is available on Netflix from next month, on September 2nd. The cast includes students, waitresses, firefighters, jet ski instructors, surfers, models, personal trainers and teachers. It features people from across the UK, Canada, The US and Norway. They really are a mixed bunch. They get sent to a luxury villa in the south of France, hoping to find love.

The full Netflix synopsis reads: “Imagine having to think about your sibling dating – how they flirt, how they treat their partners, and what their signature moves are. In this brand-new reality dating series, pairs of siblings will be seeing each other’s love life up close and personal as they search for ‘the one’ together. Having the person who knows you better than anyone should help you navigate the tricky world of dating. But will they act as the ultimate wingman and help you find love? Or scupper your plans and call you out on all your bullsh*t? Either way it might just be Awkward. As. Hell.”
