LOVE ISLAND Moves from CBS to Peacock

LOVE ISLAND has a new home in the U.S.: Peacock.

After three seasons airing on CBS, the series will move to Peacock for its upcoming fourth and fifth seasons. According to the streamer, “set to film in California, the first highly anticipated season will premiere this Summer with multiple episodes debuting weekly in real time.”

“As we continue to make Peacock a destination for must-watch original programming, partnering with a global powerhouse like ITV enables us to build on their internationally beloved formats to attract all new fans to the platform,” said Susan Rovner, Chairman Entertainment Content, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming, in a statement.

Added Jenny Groom, EVP Entertainment Unscripted Content, “LOVE ISLAND is a highly addictive dating format that is primed for a streaming service like Peacock where we can push boundaries and bring viewers steamy and dramatic twists. The series took pop culture by storm after the UK format found fans across the world, and we are thrilled to be able to bring an all-new version to Peacock this summer anchoring our unscripted slate.”

“This really is an unprecedented deal for an unscripted brand,” said ITV America CEO David George. “Peacock and NBCU are the perfect home for LOVE ISLAND because of their strategy to grow the show, utilizing the greater NBCU television portfolio and other platforms to help propel the series. That dedication, coupled with a two-season commitment on Peacock, sealed the deal. We’re incredibly excited to elevate the show through a bold new collaboration.”
