Exclusive: In one of the largest orders ever, Lifetime has picked up six new seasons — Seasons 12-17 — of its flagship reality series Married at First Sight.
Additionally, Lifetime has greenlighted a new spinoff series, Married at First Sight: Unmatchables with an eight-episode order and has given a blind commitment to another series from the Married at First Sight franchise producer, Kinetic Content. Along with the recent pickup of 16 additional episodes from new offshoot Married at First Sight: Couples Cam, this brings the total order to Kinetic Content to almost 400 hours. Lifetime is expected to make an announcement during its portion of the summer press tour this morning.
The massive renewal follows a two-season pickup Married at First Sight received last year, which included the series undergoing a supersizing with more couples and longer episodes.
It also comes as Married at First Sight‘s eleventh season, which launched July 15, is delivering strong ratings.
