Netflix’s Love Is Blindis back to take names and tug our heartstrings, but honestly we couldn’t be more excited.
The hit show graced our TV screens back in 2020, and has been a success season after season ever since. With its impending return, we can only predict what lies ahead for the 30 singles headed into the pods.
The last three seasons have been a rollercoaster of love, heartbreak and every emotion in between. With a total of two marriages, three relationships (all of which have since ended) and at least one villain (we’re looking at you, Bartise 👀) as a result of season three alone, season four will undoubtedly be just as dramatic.
First comes love, then comes reality.

The reality experiment takes blind dating to a whole new level. The show sends contestants into individual “pods,” where they are only able to communicate with others using their voice. By the end of their time in the pods, approximately 10 days (20 dates in total), according to Netflix, and plenty of deep conversations later, each participant decides if they would like to get engaged, and to whom.
That’s right – no face-to-face until a proposal is accepted. Only then can they meet IRL, and get to know each other outside of the pods.

Despite this, plenty of couples found love on the show, and even made it to “I do.” Reportedly, even the people running the show were surprised by the success of the series. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly in 2020, LIB creator Chris Coelen said: “‘As a producer, I was kind of nervous like, is anybody actually gonna get engaged? Is anyone going to make it to the altar? And, in the end, we actually had more couples get engaged than we were able to follow on the show.’”
The show’s success truly transformed reality TV and dating shows as we know it. LIB is proof that you can *actually* find love on TV, and who doesn't want that?
You can catch the first five episodes of Love Is Blind season four this Friday, March 24, on Netflix. After that, new episodes come out each Friday.
