“Married at First Sight” has a brand new home and cast.
The reality dating series, which tasks participants with saying “I do” the first time they meet, is now a Peacock original series after previously airing on FYI and Lifetime.
Season 19 kicked off on Oct. 23 with episodes 1 – 4 and introduced viewers to 10 Texas singles who were about to meet their spouses at the altar. From there, the newly-married couples began to work with a team of experts to learn the tools they’ll need for a lasting marriage.
