Jenna Dewan is set to host a new hybrid reality/dating show titled, Flirty Dancing, on Fox. From the Hollywood Reporter:
Based on a British series, Flirty Dancing has its participants learn half of a dance routine, then meet their partners for the first time on a blind date “at a breathtaking location,” where they perform the routine without saying a word to one another. The dances are designed, per Fox, to “tell a story reflective of their personal journeys to find love, while also providing clues to the other’s personality.”
The Fox show will differ a bit from the U.K. format by having one person dance with two partners before choosing one to ask on a second date.
And there are same-sex couples! Squeee!!! Folks on Twitter were all gaga over this cute couple – Garry and Ryan- who turned it out on the November 15 episode in the UK (Season 2, Episode 2): “Garry finds it hard to talk to men he fancies while Ryan has never had a boyfriend.” Check out the obvious romantic tension between the two as they end the routine.
