MTV UK has commissioned Love Squad<\/em>, a brand-new dating show that gives friends the chance to try to find the perfect match for a single member of the group.<\/p>\n In each episode of\u00a0Love Squad<\/em>, friends and family select three different dates from a pool of potential love matches in the hopes of finding the right suitor for the unlucky-in-love single in their lives. After going on three dates in one night, the dater will find out whether or not the person they pick returns their feelings. Love Squad<\/em>, which will be produced by the Endemol Shine UK company Workerbee, has been commissioned as a 30×22-minute series for MTV UK. Slated to premiere later this year, the series will begin filming this month.<\/p>\n Craig Orr, VP of commissioning and development for MTV International, said: \u201cBefore dating apps were a thing, people first met in person and Love Squad<\/em> brings some much-needed IRL back into the dating process. Viewers can expect plenty of excitement throughout as we hand over total control to a group of friends\u2014after all, who better to choose your perfect match than the people who know you best.\u201d<\/p>\n Rick Murray, managing director of Workerbee, added; \u201cWe are really excited to be making our first series for MTV. And what a great format to kick off with. Funny, insightful, dramatic and hopefully the \u2018friends\u2019 will be spot on when it comes to finding their mates \u2018the one\u2019. Love Squad<\/em> is a great addition to Workerbee\u2019s rapidly expanding factual-entertainment slate and we can\u2019t wait to get going.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" MTV UK has commissioned Love Squad, a brand-new dating show that gives friends the chance to try to find the perfect match for a single member of the group.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":12791,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[3755,3253],"class_list":["post-12790","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-love-squad","tag-mtv-uk","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
