big brother mafs cross over netflix show marry

There’s a new show coming to Netflix which is basically a crossover between Big Brother and Married At First Sight (MAFS). What could go wrong with a live-streamed version of MAFS?

Called Netflix, Will You Marry Me, the British show focuses on an eligible bachelor looking for his Mrs Right. The Netflix groom will live inside a house with a select group of brides hoping to find their happily ever after.

However, instead of shows like The Bachelor where the man makes the choice to eliminate women from the mansion, the audience holds the power, like in Big Brother.

Cameras will stream live for 12 episodes, while viewers decide what happens next. They’ll be able to vote on who stays, who leaves, and who the groom marries in the live finale.

The official synopsis is as follows: “Across four weeks and 12 live episodes, one man will hand over total control to the Netflix viewers to find his true love and ask the audience, ‘Netflix, Will You Marry Me?’ Every big decision and every dramatic exit will be voted for by Netflix members. Get ready for a whirlwind of dates, drama and fairytale romance all leading to one genuine, live televised proposal — the question is who do you choose? It’s his life and your choice.”
