The fifth season of Too Hot to Handle is coming to Netflix this week, and the streaming service has now released a trailer teasing all the drama ahead.
The ten-episode season will be broken into three parts, airing a week apart, with ten singles battling it out for a $200,000 prize by trying to abstain from sexual behavior.
Laura Gibson created the reality series, which was developed by Charlie Bennett. The pair have cited “The Contest” episode of Seinfeld as part of their inspiration for the show. Gibson has said that the sitcom’s episode about abstinence is their favorite installment and that it was on their mind when Too Hot to Handle was created.
Netflix revealed more about the return of the series in a press release.
A cast of ten hot singles think they are retreating to a lavish yacht in the Caribbean and competing on a new dating show, ‘Love Overboard’, hosted by a handsome and mysterious captain. Little do they know that Too Hot to Handle is back for a fifth season and Lana is ready to put their romantic connections to the test. There’s a $200,000 cash prize at stake and all they have to do is avoid all physical intimacy.
Executive producers are Saul Fearnley, Viki Kolar, Ashley Whitehouse, and Amelia Brown for Thames Productions and Jonno Richards for Talkback.
The trailer for Too Hot to Handle season five is below. The series returns on July 14th.
