In this bold new series, eight unsuspecting boyfriends are flown to a Greek island under the guise of participating in a show about manhood and bromance. However, they are in for a rude awakening when Olivia reveals the real purpose of their trip: to transform from bad boyfriends into better partners. The masterminds behind this intervention are their long-suffering girlfriends, whose dramatic surprise arrivals add an extra layer of chaos and excitement.

Over the course of 11 episodes, these boyfriends, ranging from serial cheaters and lazy lovers to commitment-phobes and man-children, will face a series of challenges designed to reform their ways. The stakes are high as they compete to prove their worth and avoid elimination. The goal is to become the most improved boyfriend, but the journey is fraught with tough love, humor, and plenty of mischief.

In today's social media age, where temptations are just a swipe away, maintaining a relationship can be challenging. This show aims to bring couples back to basics, helping them rediscover why they fell in love in the first place. Olivia Attwood's approach combines warmth and irrepressible humor with a no-nonsense attitude, making her the perfect host to guide these wayward boyfriends through their transformation.

Olivia Attwood shared her excitement about the show, expressing how honored she feels to host her own dating series.
