Why We Built This
We spent years in telling real stories that moved TV viewers. Yet we were frustrated by reality dating shows that continue to pull the same tired trick: beautiful people, manufactured drama...zero relatability.
In a highly-filtered online world, The Catch challenges singles to share their least postable life moments to build deeper connections. In doing so, we're creating more than a dating series, we're building a community...for both daters and viewers who are seeking something more real.
