TOO HOT TO HANDLE: GERMANY

UFA SHOW & FACTUAL GmbH • Documentary & Factual • Netflix • From February 28

It's getting hot! UFA Show & Factual produces the successful Netflix format TOO HOT TO HANDLE for Germany

  • Our singles dare to take the hottest trip of their lives – the catch: touching is taboo! Who can resist the temptation and who will give in to the singles’ paradise?
  • From Tuesday, February 28, 2023 exclusively on Netflix

Summer, sun, sunshine – and lots of bare skin! That sounds like the perfect party vacation for our singles competing in TOO HOT TO HANDLE: GERMANY. But the party vacation in a tropical paradise comes with a catch: no touching allowed! In order to win the prize money of 200,000 euros, the contestants must completely refrain from physical intimacy. Can they resist the temptation and build true feelings and connection instead? Find out from Tuesday, February 28, 2023, exclusively on Netflix.

A singles paradise full of temptations

The singles are put to the test again and again: They not only have to share a bedroom, but also beds and are allowed to enjoy dates in togetherness. But all under the strictest observation of supercomputer Lana. No physical advance escapes her notice. Any breach of the rules is penalized with a reduction in the prize money and therefore causes a lot of controversy among the candidates. Lana’s goal: to create real bonds between the singles – with the help of workshops and challenges, among other things.

International streaming success

The international “no-touching” dating show TOO HOT TO HANDLE has quickly become a favorite among global reality TV formats as an English-language format from entertainment producer Fremantle for Netflix and recently celebrated the successful premiere of its fourth season. After a Brazilian and a Latin American spin-off, it was high time to bring the fiery format to Germany!

The German adaptation is a production of UFA Show & Factual GmbH on behalf of Netflix.

These are the singles from TOO HOT TO HANDLE: GERMANY

Love is in the air: Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Netflix presents the twelve most irresistible German-speaking singles! In TOO HOT TO HANDLE: GERMANY, they celebrate what is supposed to be the wildest party of their lives from February 28. But the debauched celebration comes to an abrupt end when supercomputer and chaperone Lana announces the real reason for their stay in paradise: The hormone-driven hotties are to learn how to have deep conversations and form real relationships. In order to be able to concentrate fully on this, Lana forbids any sexual contact, even masturbation!

The singles are deeply shocked, but the reward for their abstinence is prize money totaling 200,000 euros. Every little slippery slip reduces the prize money. Which heartbreakers can resist the temptation and form deep emotional bonds?
