Trisha Paytas Is Taking Over Your Love Life in Don't Date Alone
Trisha Paytas is playing matchmaker in Tubi's new LGBTQ+ dating series, premiering February 4, 2027, exclusively and free on Tubi.
Your best friend knows your dating history, remembers every questionable crush, and has probably heard the phrase "but this one's different" more times than they'd care to admit. They've seen the red flags, survived the relationship recaps, and offered advice you may or may not have taken. Now, they're getting the chance to put that knowledge to the ultimate test by choosing who you date next. Suddenly, finding love sounds like putting your entire romantic future in the group chat's hands.
Trisha Paytas is ready to make that arrangement a reality. The internet personality, entertainer, and Just Trish podcast host is stepping into the world of reality television with Don't Date Alone With Trisha Paytas, a new Tubi Original that puts a campy, queer twist on the traditional dating show. Her larger-than-life personality and love of romance are taking center stage in a series where the usual dating rules have been thrown out the window. And knowing Trisha, nobody should expect a quiet matchmaking experience.
Premiering exclusively on Tubi February 4, 2027, the creator-led series gives queer singles a chance to find love through the people who know them best. Each 30-minute episode puts one best friend in charge of evaluating three potential matches, with Trisha helping them navigate outrageous compatibility challenges before selecting the lucky contestant who gets the ultimate blind date. The setting is luxurious, the personalities are unfiltered, and the potential for romantic chaos is practically endless. Tubi's Reality Romance collection is also home to more dating experiments and unforgettable personalities for viewers who enjoy watching love become everyone's business.
Your bestie has opinions. Trisha has a microphone. Love might not stand a chance.
What to Expect From Don't Date Alone With Trisha Paytas
Forget the carefully rehearsed introductions and predictable first-date conversations. Don't Date Alone is leaning into the outrageous side of reality romance, where potential matches have to prove they're worth a shot at love before the actual date even begins. First impressions matter, but impressing someone's best friend might be the toughest part of the entire experience.
The challenges are where things could get really entertaining. A candidate might have all the right qualities on paper, but personality, chemistry, and the ability to handle an unexpected question could tell a very different story. Trisha and the contestant's best friend will be watching closely, giving the competition plenty of opportunities for hilarious revelations, surprising connections, and moments that might deserve their own group-chat recap.
There's also a distinctly nostalgic appeal to the format. Trisha has spoken about her affection for the fast-paced dating shows she watched growing up, and Don't Date Alone promises a modern, queer take on that wonderfully unpredictable style of reality television. Its combination of campy challenges, candid contestants, and a host who has never been shy about sharing her opinions could make for some memorable matchmaking television.
Beyond the outrageous entertainment, the series also celebrates LGBTQ+ relationships and the different ways people experience love. Trisha has described the project as a show created for and by the queer community, with contestants who are open about what they're looking for in a partner. Tubi's LGBTQ+ Movies & Shows selection is another destination for stories exploring queer romance, identity, and connection.
Don't Date Alone With Trisha Paytas joins Tubi's growing slate of creator-led Originals and Exclusives, alongside projects such as Terri Joe: Missionary in Miami and Scott Kress Needs a Man. Produced by Wheelhouse's Spoke Studios, the series also has Natalie Shabtai, previously involved with The Bachelor franchise, serving as showrunner and co-executive producer.
The search for love begins February 4, 2027, exclusively on Tubi. In the meantime, you might want to start thinking about which friend you'd actually trust to make your romantic decisions.
Choose wisely. They have receipts.
