Audiences looking for a dose of drama (and love), no longer have to wait until the summer for ITV2’s smash-hit series, Love Island: All Stars in January to welcome some familiar faces back to find love. Read on to discover 15 similar series and where to stream them right now.

Rather than a winter Love Island, new host Maya Jama returned to welcome former contestants from the past 10 seasons to a tropical new location to partner up and find love. Beneath the beaming sun, there were many awkward reunions between former exes, but it culminated in a happy ending for winners Molly Smith and Tom Clare. Though this series had the shortest run time in the show’s history, lasting only 36 days, the gripping finale still attracted a whopping 1 million viewers.

Thankfully, there’s a whole host of reality series that boast similar levels of drama as individuals try to find the one. Whether you’re keen to watch someone walk down the aisle to marry a total stranger in Love Island USA.

Netflix is home to the steamier sister of Love Island, Too Hot to Handle, which sees 10 adults, who have previously opted for short-term liaisons try and find long-term relationships. They spend four weeks in a house all together, but they’re forbidden from starting any physical relationship with each other. If they break the rules, then the prize money quickly dwindles.

The platform also has several seasons of Single’s Inferno, all of which are available to stream now too.

Meanwhile, there’s several seasons of Bachelor in Paradise. Similar to All Stars, former single contestants reunite on a beach to search for a summer romance. It boasts all the tropical escapism that you might just crave after that dose of winter sun in Love Island.

Channel 4 also brought reality series fans the unconventional dating show, Five Dates A Week elevates the everyday kind of dating, viewers might be able to relate too. It follows one person as they go on a date every weeknight for one week. The hope is that by increasing the amount of dates it increases the odds of finding the one.

With several months to go until the main series of Love Island returns in June, here’s some of the best TV series to watch right now like Love Island: All Stars and where to stream them.
