The US version of Temptation Island is moving to Netflix, with a “spicy” new season dropping soon, specifically on March 12. The show tests the relationships of four couples by separating them and surrounding them with attractive singles.
Here’s the Lowdown: Temptation Island involves four couples heading to an island where they’re separated and tempted by singles. It’s a bit like the Casa Amor segment of Love Island, but with couples who have been together much longer. Mark Walberg returns as host. This is Season Nine.
What This Means Now: A new twist called “Temptation Haven” is being added. It’s a tent with no cameras, allowing for more private interactions. However, a light signal alerts the other villa whenever someone enters, adding an element of suspense and potential jealousy. The trailer shows some very intense moments.
The Bigger Picture: Netflix is expanding its reality TV offerings with a show that already has a built-in audience from its previous runs on Fox and USA. The addition of the “Temptation Haven” is intended to update the established format and create more drama. At the end of the season, couples must choose to stay together, leave single, or start a new relationship.
