Netflix's reality TV slate has trended toward maximum drama thus far this year, from Love Is Blind and Temptation Island to Million Dollar Secret. Thankfully, Love on the Spectrum is back for another season of heartwarming romances.
Originally a spin-off of the 2019 Australian docuseries of the same name, Netflix's Love on the Spectrum has grown into an Emmy-winning phenomenon in its own right as neurodivergent young adults navigate their romantic lives with the help of coach Jennifer Cook. Released on April 2, 2025, season 3 brings back several of the romance series's fan favorites, longstanding couples, and two newcomers ready to find love.
Below, learn more about the returning and new stars of Love on the Spectrum, including which seasons to watch to follow their journeys.
