Married at First Sight is an Australian reality television series that first aired on July 8, 2014, on FYI (and later, Lifetime).

The series is based on a Danish series titled Gift Ved Første Blik [dk][1] that first aired on September 4, 2013, on DR3. The original Danish series format has been sold to broadcasters throughout the world.

Production and broadcast

The series first aired in the United States on

A&E. In 2017, for its fifth season, the show moved to sister network Lifetime. The following year, two spinoffs were announced to premiere that October, Married at First Sight: Honeymoon Island and Married at First Sight: Happily Ever After.[2]

The series features three to five couples, paired up by relationship experts, who agree to marry when they first meet. For the first three seasons, the experts were clinical psychologist Dr. Joseph Cilona, sexologist Dr. Logan Levkoff, sociologist Dr. Pepper Schwartz, and humanist chaplain Greg Epstein. Starting with the fourth season, the experts were Schwartz, pastor and marriage counselor Calvin Roberson, and communication and relationship expert Rachel DeAlto.[3] Rachel DeAlto was replaced with Dr. Jessica Griffin beginning with the sixth season. Dr. Griffin stayed until the ninth season and was replaced by Dr. Viviana Coles in seasons ten and eleven.[4]

The couples spend their wedding night in a hotel before leaving for a honeymoon. Upon returning home, they live together as a married couple for the remainder of the eight weeks. Thereafter, they must choose to divorce or stay married.

Synopsis

Over the sixteen completed seasons of MAFS, 64 couples have been matched. 37 of them (58%) mutually chose to stay married on Decision Day, out of which over two-thirds have since divorced, filed for divorce, or announced their divorce.
