DALLAS — Netflix's reality dating series "Love Is Blind" is returning for a third season, and it was filmed in Dallas.
On Wednesday, the show released a video showing the 30 singles from the Dallas area who will look to connect – and potentially even get engaged – without ever seeing the other person.
"Love Is Blind," hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey, will feature 15 men and 15 women who get to know each other in separate “pods.” The contestants on the show cannot see each other and only communicate through a wall. If they decide to meet, they must become engaged, which sets up the moment when the contestants see their counterparts for the first time.
As you can imagine, the reality show's drama gets rather juicy whenever as they meet each other’s relatives and friends, live together for the first time, and decide whether they’ll get married.
The Dallas-based cast is made up of real estate professionals, health industry workers, engineers, coaches, sales representatives and more. The ages of the contestants range from 26 to 36, with an average age of nearly 31.
