Global Agency Picks Up New Dating Format

ISTANBUL: Global Agency has taken on the international distribution rights for the new dating format Eye Love You from Effervescence.

The hour-long dating show follows as four suitors share their daily lives with a bachelorette, all without ever having seen each other, thanks to special connected glasses. Eye Love You is meant to illustrate how new technologies will help to find love beyond pure physical attraction. The series is already airing on ATV in Turkey under the title Gözüm Sende and has been renewed. It has also been optioned in the U.S.

Izzet Pinto, the CEO of Global Agency, said: “As Global Agency, we are thrilled to be the international distributor of Eye Love You and I would like to thank Effervescence for choosing us as their partner on the show. With its unique and attractive concept, the format has been one of the projects that we have been searching for. We are now happy to offer it in our innovative catalog. About the show, I can say that virtual dating has never been so real!”

Simone Harari Baulieu, the CEO of Effervescence, added: “Everybody loves to be a fly on the wall and watch the interactions of young people’s dating. The format uses sophisticated technology to mimic this new world of dating. It also focuses on the elements that make an initial relationship work beyond physical attraction. We are confident that Global Agency has understood our creative approach and are glad that they will help us to bring this show successfully to worldwide audiences.”
