Bravo announces a modern reboot of Blind Date

Deadline

Bravo has announced a modern-day reboot of the blind-dating show that ran for more than 1,440 episodes between 1999 and 2006. Original host Roger Lodge won't be involved. “Updated for 2019 with social media trends and diverse couples of all ethnicities, ages and sexual orientations, each half-hour episode will feature strangers who are paired up and sent off on a blind date," Bravo said in a statement. "The cameras will follow every move as a narrator weaves in hilarious commentary with the help of graphics, animations and thought bubbles to ensure nothing goes unsaid.”
