Joyn Announces Dating Show 'Eden' for Summer
Joyn announced a new dating show titled "Eden - Du bezahlst für jede Lüge" to debut on the streaming service this summer. Produced by Redseven Entertainment, the format will run for 20 episodes and features 13 singles competing to form a couple for a shared jackpot of up to €100,000. Contestants are regularly connected to a lie detector; each detected lie deducts €1,000 from the group prize. Only participants who finish the show as a couple are eligible for the money. Joyn billed the format as the "most honest of all dating shows" and compared the diminishing-prize mechanic to formats like Netflix’s "Too Hot to Handle" and Sat.1’s "Villa der Versuchung." No exact broadcast date was announced.
A streaming platform (Joyn) commissioning original reality content affects programming slate and advertising inventory/opportunities but is not industry-shifting.
