Hulu has officially announced its latest unscripted series, “Overboard for Love” (working title), a high-stakes dating competition set aboard a luxury yacht. The series comes from Alex Cooper, the creator, host, and executive producer of the wildly successful “Call Her Daddy” podcast. Cooper’s production company, Unwell Productions, is behind the project alongside Jeff Jenkins Productions, 3BMG, and Walt Disney Television Alternative.
A Lavish Setting With a Competitive Twist
“Overboard for Love” is not just another dating show. It takes romance to the high seas, where a group of attractive, single contestants will set sail on an extravagant yacht in search of love. However, unlike traditional dating shows, access to the yacht’s exclusive, high-end amenities will not come easily. Contestants will have to strategize, compete, and navigate social dynamics to secure their spot in the lap of luxury.
As the journey unfolds, audiences can expect explosive romance, unexpected betrayals, shifting alliances, and heartbreaking eliminations. Only one couple will emerge victorious, proving their connection is stronger than the competition.
A Major Milestone for Unwell Productions
The series marks a significant expansion for Cooper’s production company, Unwell Productions, which has been making waves in the media industry with its bold, unfiltered, and boundary-pushing content.
“I couldn’t be more excited that Unwell Productions’ first unscripted series, Overboard for Love, is coming to life with our amazing partner, Hulu,” said Alex Cooper in an official statement. “This project marks a major milestone for us, perfectly reflecting our vision of creating bold, unfiltered content that pushes boundaries. We’ve designed a truly unique dating show, and I can’t wait for viewers to see what Unwell is capable of.”
