In the most ambitious dating experiment ever attempted, 22 recently single men and women from around the globe were put through an extensive matchmaking process to find their "perfect match." Hailing from around the world and living together under one roof at an international location, these singles will have a shared goal: to find "the one." Each week, the singles will have an opportunity to find their match, and if they can identify all 11 perfect matches at the same time, they'll split a massive cash prize.

The global expansion turned a new leaf last season and broke barriers with its U.S. edition when it became the first sexually fluid reality dating competition show in the nation. From coming-out moments to discoveries of sexual and gender identity, it told powerful stories about navigating relationships and finding love as a sexually fluid individual for the first time on a reality dating show.

ARE YOU THE ONE? is produced by ITV Netherlands. Amy Boyle and Noah Moskin are Executive Producers. Sitarah Pendelton and Diana Morelli are Executive Producers for MTV Entertainment Studios with Matthew Parillo as Executive in Charge.

TBS will air Power Slap: Road To The Title, a reality series based around a new sports league from Dana White, despite UFC President being caught on camera slapping his wife over the holidays.

The Warner Bros. Discovery network, however, has pushed the premiere of the series back a week following the incident. Deadline understands that TBS will air the first episode on January 18. It was originally scheduled to air on January 11. It has been replaced in the schedule with a repeat on Young Sheldon. There had been reports earlier today that the series had been shelved after it was removed from the January 11 schedule.

Power Slap is a new sports league created by White, Lorenzo Fertitta and Craig Piligian, the Pilgrim Media founder who runs Lionsgate's unscripted division. It is focused on competitive open-handed striking.

The league was created in partnership with Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and Endeavor. It features competitors from across the globe competing on the ultimate stage to showcase their power, technique and resolve.

The eight-part series, which is produced by Pilgrim Media Group, follows athletes competing to earn a spot in the cast house, the first Power Slap rankings, in future Power Slap matches and world recognition.

Over the holidays, White was seen hitting his wife Anne across the face after she hit him at a Cabo San Lucas nightclub in Mexico. He apologized in a statement after the video was leaked to TMZ and described it as a "horrible" incident.

The food world is filled with rivalries and in the new series Superchef Grudge Match hosted by Darnell Ferguson, some long-standing personal and professional feuds are settled in one-round, one-dish winner-takes-all heavyweight battles. In each episode, Darnell stages two different battles between chefs who have beefs with each other to finally bury the hatchet and win $10,000 cash, a prized knife from the losing chef and lifelong bragging rights over their food foe. From food competition rivalries and business partner squabbles to mentor vs. protégé grudges, sparks fly in and out of the kitchen in this one-hour series. Superchef Grudge Match premieres Tuesday, February 7th at 9pm ET/PT on Food Network and streaming on discovery+.

"Superchef Grudge Match competitors have conflict with each other when they enter the kitchen - and the drama only intensifies from there," said Betsy Ayala, Senior Vice President Programming and Development, Food Network. "Just like show host Darnell Ferguson, these competitors are bold, brash and incredibly talented. They will do whatever it takes to win against their culinary rival."

And now a Mistplay Game Break. Name the mobile game by its screenshot.

Thank you Dielle. The game you were asked to identify is...............






Remind CocktailsandConsoles when it's an actual sponsored game......if she gets back on Twitch.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



And now for your tweet of the day.








-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And now it's time for everybody's stupidest segment in the history of......whatever..........


DON'T...........WATCH...................THIS!



https://youtu.be/bkla7VLrPEA



Yes, don't watch this......because life's too short to skip out on paid streaming services and what's on free ad supported television. 


This week, an episode of Million Dollar Word Game came into the view making it only 2 episodes so far....and just 2 on its Youtube search. I'll have a look at it.........myself.







As I look at it, this was not the type of million dollar game show you'd hope to expect. Ian Jamieson being Regis Philbin tried so hard but in this episode, only 3 tried.....and one decided to wait it out until the next show. Just like Millionaire, there are 15 certain levels to the million and do that, you have to say and spell certain words. In the first 3 stages, you have to unscramble words, but hereafter you have to make 3-5 letter words from a root word, even higher until you get to the final level in which you have to unscramble a much tougher word. Sounds complicated, but getting $1000 in 5 is a guarantee and if you're a wordsmith, you can take a whole lot home. There was some special weeks, but that's way out. Only 40 episodes were produced which is your basic GSN original's first season. Even Game Show Gumbo had the Game Show Garbage induction in itself. Go watch that if you have time. So please........Don't.......watch..........Million Dollar Word Game. It's a million dollar idea but just running on $100.
