Netflix Renews ‘Perfect Match’ for Season 3
Netflix has renewed unscripted dating series “Perfect Match” for a third season. The show’s first season was released last year and debuted at No. 2 on the English-language TV rankings for the streamer.
The Kinetic Content series follows singles from across Netflix’s roster of unscripted relationship sudsers — including “Too Hot to Handle” and “Love is Blind” – who couple up and test their romantic relationships by engaging in compatibility challenges. Hosted by Nick Lachey, “Perfect Match” also sees “winning couples gain power in the game to bring in new singles to match with their castmates – setting up potential love matches or stirring trouble in paradise as they compete to be the strongest couple at the villa, crowned the Perfect Match,” per the Netflix synopsis.
