Fox has ordered Marriage Market. Hosted by actress, comedian, and podcaster Whitney Cummings, the series welcomes singles – who are officially over swiping, ghosting, and endless first dates – into an actual Marriage Market, where they’re up for trying something radical… putting their love lives in the hands of family members that know them best and risking it all for one shot at forever – in an arranged marriage. Filled with humor, heart, heartbreak, and unpredictable outcomes, Marriage Market is a one-of-a-kind, immersive matchmaking experience where families come together with one goal in mind: helping their single family member find a meaningful, lasting match. Inside this vibrant, real-world setting, families meet, connect, and advocate for their loved one as they search for a perfect partner. The rules are simple. When two families believe they’ve found a match, their singles are introduced and engaged on the spot – with the ultimate goal of making it to the altar. From there, the couples and their families move in together, navigating real-life compatibility, big personalities, and even bigger expectations. At any point, each of the newly matched singles’ families can decide they’ve found them “the one,” or send their single loved one back into the Marriage Market for another chance at finding them love.
