8 Shows To Watch On Netflix Canada If You Can’t Get Enough Of “Love Is Blind”
If your last binge-watching session involved a lot of the brand new dating series, you might be looking for something else to fill the hole once you finish watching. The streaming service is known for its captivating films and series, but it also has quite a lot of reality TV content. These Netflix Canada reality TV shows similar to Love Is Blind are perfect for your next marathon.
Love Is Blind hit the platform just in time for the season of love last week and quickly picked up popularity and attention.
Similar in style to The Bachelor and 90 Day Fiancé, the nine-episode series hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey follows 20 millennials on the search for love. The contestants talk through a wall where they can't see each other and form connections before meeting in person. The one big catch: they must get engaged before even meeting face to face.
The premise is worth a watch for the shock factor. These eight shows are just as entertaining and some are pretty controversial.
