The one-hour series, based on the show of the same name that ran from 1983-1994, will feature single men and women in search of romance. Each single contestant will go on three blind dates with three different suitors. Afterwards, they'll dish about it all in front of a live studio audience with Cohen.

“I was a huge fan of the original ‘Love Connection,’ and hosting the new version allows me to do one of the things I love most: meddling in people’s personal lives,” Cohen said Wednesday at the Television Critics Association press tour.

Fleiss continued: “‘Love Connection’ was always one of my favorite programs. Show creator Eric Lieber was a close friend of mine. He taught me a lot about the relationship show format. The first rule — if the cast is good, just stay out of the way.”

Fox President David Madden added that the reboot will "absolutely feature all versions of couples," including same-sex pairings.

Producers have yet to say when the show will debut, but viewers can expect a 15-episode season to air sometime this summer.
