So, if you were in the Plotting Chat a few days ago, @Amiable Ghost pitched in this TV show idea for my local TV station, LuxTV:

Welcome to Cupid's mansion, home to the new reality show, Shipwrecked, where your ships battle against each other to become Manta Carlos’s one true pair.

Out of all sign ups, only ten are chosen to participate, five women and five men. From these five pairs, you, our loyal fans vote to create the perfect couple. Our couples will spend 12 weeks living together in Cupid's mansion, growing to love or growing to hate their housemates and potential true love.

At the end of the season, the winning ‘one true pairing’ of Manta Carlos will be given a prize of $100,000 and a special package decided on by the studio that matches their love, and an interview on Chatting with Fabio during week eight of our next season.
(I added the cash prize.)

Now, everyone was very much excited to participate in this show, and why not? Think of the perks. Your character will be in a reality TV show, they might get a ship or a cash prize that could help with an on-going plot. I don't know. You decide!

If this gets enough interest, we can bump it up to 12 or even 14 participants.

Rules

1.) The premise of the show is simple: Get your audience to fall in love with your characters' romance! It doesn't have to be real. It just has to look real.
2.) For three months, the contestants are required to live with each other in Cupid's mansion. They may leave, but they have to go home there every night. They will have a film crew follow them at all times and the shippy parts and drama will be aired.
3.) Every Saturday, the audience will get to vote for things they can do to facilitate attraction: speed dating, movie night, and stuff like that. They don't have to be threaded, but they can be referenced. Feel free to discuss what happened in the weekly voting!
4.) Every week, someone will get booted off the mansion for being unpopular. This will be decided by a random number generator.
5.) The winning couple will also be decided by a random number generator. Lmao. Have fun.
