concept

Women and men should choose their possible dream partner based on body parts. Milka Loff Fernandes:

"It's just about the fact that we want to see: To what extent do physical characteristics - completely detached from all other things - decide on the attractiveness of a partner?"

procedure

A single chooses one for a date from six naked candidates who are gradually becoming visible . The single is first introduced in a single player with pictures from his everyday life with first name, age, place of residence and occupation and tells about himself. In the studio, he is faced with six colored boxes, the outlines of which can only be seen as shadows.

• 1. Lower body

The front and side walls of the boxes go up to waist height. The single exchanges ideas with the moderator about the neck lower body, also about the buttocks, after the candidates have turned once (the turning and showing of the buttocks is not broadcast in some rounds). The single chooses a candidate who steps out of the box, is presented with first name, age and / or occupation and place of residence, makes a comment and is shown briefly dressed.

• 2. Upper body

The front and side walls move up to below the shoulder, there is another deselection.

• 3. face

The front and side walls go right up, the third deselection takes place.

• 4th voice

The candidates tell what they like about their body and what they don't. The fourth candidate is voted out.

• 5. Naked single

The two remaining candidates step out of their boxes. The single briefly leaves the stage to undress and now shows the candidates also naked. After a short exchange, the final deselection takes place.

• 6. Date

The single meets up with his favorite in a pub. Then both give a résumé.

There are two rounds per episode, each with a single and six candidates. Small, drawn spots on eroticism and sexuality are shown throughout the program.

Reviews

“What is the excitement, the scandalization of this little Titti-Popo-Dödel show? A few bizarre nudists have fun with themselves and their bodies, no one is being fooled around here. The show is dynamic, colorful, funny, unusual - and somehow a surprising and beneficial alternative to perfectly styled bachelorettes, especially in view of the average quality of the candidates. A small, fun, colorful nude club on Monday evening. No more and no less."

- Oliver Rasche : welt.de

“You can think of this show called“ Naked Attraction ”as the downfall of the West and you might not be completely wrong. But above all, it is the current climax of the trend towards ever greater efficiency in dome shows. The penis is pleasing, the breasts are acceptable - you have already clarified a few things that could otherwise lead to disappointment later. "

- Julia Bähr : faz.net

"There is a surprising amount of space here for appreciation and people who are not quite as perfectly self-optimizing."

- Jan Zier : stern.de

Broadcasting abroad

Abroad, the dating show is broadcast on British television on Channel 4 .
