Flirty Dancing is stepping across the Atlantic.
FOX is making a US version of the UK dating and dance show, per Deadline:
The U.S. network has ordered a pilot of a local version of the format, which originated, and is currently airing on Britain’s Channel 4. It is the latest international format for the broadcaster following the success of Asian entertainment format The Masked Singer.
The format offers a new twist on two genres, dating and dancing. Two complete strangers will be taught one half of a dance routine and then will go on a date where they have to dance. Once the couples have completed their dance date, they will part still not yet having spoken a word to each other, but will hope that they have done enough to warrant a second date.
The US expansion of Flirty Dancing boosts the odds of a second season on Channel 4 in the UK. Stay tuned…
