August 1, 2019 by Marisa Roffman
American viewers will get their own LOVE ISLAND this summer. The U.S. version of the international reality sensation filled with romance and relationships will premiere Tuesday, July 9 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. New episodes will air every weeknight (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) through Wednesday, August 7.
LOVE ISLAND will return for a second season, CBS announced.
“The passion of LOVE ISLAND’s audience is incredible,” Kelly Kahl, President, CBS Entertainment, said in a statement. “The intensity of their social media engagement has created tremendous enthusiasm for the series here at the Network. We love the show’s creative execution and can’t wait for next season.” Added Sherman, “After its first season, the U.K. version exploded via word of mouth and social media to become a huge hit, and its viewership has grown every year. We believe first season U.S. fans are just as passionate and engaged and we look forward to building on that foundation with another fun season next summer.”
The reality series—which is currently airing every week day—follows a group of singles in a Fijian villa as they try and couple up…and survive the season. Per CBS, “the series has made a big digital impact as the Network’s most-streamed new show on CBS All Access and CBS.com in over a year, and as a continually trending social media topic following each night’s broadcast.”
LOVE ISLAND season 2 will debut Summer 2020.
