Too Hot to Handle season 6: Everything we know so far (including a twist!)

Too Hot to Handle season 5 - Cr: Netflix

Netflix has no shortage of wild reality television, especially when it comes to dating shows. Too Hot to Handle might be one of the most chaotic of the bunch, as each season features a group of horny singles trying to abstain to win a significant cash prize. Too Hot to Handle season 5 recently wrapped, and Netflix just revealed that Too Hot to Handle season 6 is in the works—with a big twist!

Hosted by the talking robot-cone Lana (and narrated by comedian Desiree Burch), Too Hot to Handle sends several sexy young people to a tropical location under the guise of a serious dating show, when in reality, they have to keep their hands to themselves for several weeks or risk losing money from the cash pool.

Commitment-phobes often struggle to make it to the end without breaking Lana’s rules, but sometimes, individual castmates learn new skills and form meaningful relationships. In addition to five seasons of the flagship series, Netflix has produced several international versions of Too Hot to Handle in Brazil, Germany, and Mexico.

Now that Netflix has officially confirmed Too Hot to Handle season 6 is happening, here’s everything we know about the new season so far!

Yes, a sixth season of the reality series is officially in the works.

Since the show is only in the casting phase, we shouldn’t expect it to release until 2024. Because Too Hot to Handle is a reality show, it won’t be impacted by the ongoing strikes. Reality television has a much faster turnaround time than scripted content, so it will likely be released within the first few months of the new year.

The biggest surprise about the reality show’s upcoming season is that Lana is going public for the first time!

In August, Netflix revealed that casting was officially underway for season 6. Instead of fooling contestants into thinking they’re on a different reality show, this time, people will know ahead of time that they’re signing up for Too Hot to Handle. How will that change the show’s dynamic?

“I have updated my software and I now have new and improved techniques to help serial daters learn how to form meaningful relationships,” says Lana. “Do you want to apply to join me on my beautiful retreat as I put you and your connections to the test to win $200,000? Warning: I have eyes everywhere. Goodbye.”
