Watch a sneak peek of 'Temptation Island' season 5:
What is 'Temptation Island' about?
Similar to other reality dating shows, including The Ultimatum: Queer Love and The Big D, couples are venturing to a tropical getaway (as they always seem to do) to put their relationships to the ultimate test. Will they walk out with a stronger connection than ever before...or will sparks fly with someone new?
Who is hosting 'Temptation Island'?
Mark L. Walberg (not to be confused with Mark Wahlberg) will assume hosting duties for Temptation Island season 5. (For reference, The Bachelorette's favorite success story, JoJo Fletcher and Jordan Rogers, will host The Big D in the hour after.)
What changes are coming to 'Temptation Island'?
Although the show premiered on FOX in the early 2000s, USA decided to make some changes to the series once the network took over in 2019. Every season since has gotten a makeover, number five included.
First things first: a brand-new temptation light will flash any time a contestant gets coupled up...or gives into temptation. That means it'll be pretty hard to be discreet. Additionally, an O.G. rule is getting an overhaul: couples who came to the island were previously able to send messages, but now for the first time, so can the singles.
These changes are leveling the playing field and will definitely make things messier for all involved, so much so that even Walberg had his doubts.
"It dials up everything," he told Screen Rant. "I was not a fan of it at first, but then when we put it in the show, I was like, 'Oh my god!'"
Are you really tempting yourself to stay away? We didn't think so! Catch Temptation Island season 5 on Wednesdays at 9pm on USA Network, or the next day on Peacock.
