Lifetime has ordered six more seasons of its top-rated series "Married at First Sight" through season 17.
The show features singles paired up by a relationship expert who get married the first time they meet, then go on a honeymoon, and then live together for eight weeks before deciding whether or not to stay hitched. The network typically airs two seasons a year.
Lifetime also announced a spin-off: "Married at First Sight: Unmatchables".
The new show will tackle tough-to-help singles, giving less-desirable "Married at First Sight" applicants a physical and personality crash course makeover courtesy of Pastor Calvin Robertson and Dr. Viviana Coles before they embark on their reality TV shotgun marriages.
"Each season we see so many amazing, complex and charming people that apply for the main show, but we simply can’t match everyone," said Gena McCarthy, executive VP of programming, Lifetime Unscripted. "Unmatchables allows these people a shot at love following our expert-led interventions and transformations."
