You can’t stop the pods! As revealed at Netflix’s Tudum: A Global Fan Event, the hit reality romance series Love Is Blind is coming back for Season 5 — and we even got a sneak peek at the upcoming season. Check out the first look at Love is Blind Season 5 above.

The clip is more of a teaser than a trailer considering the fact that it only shows one of the season’s potential couples. In it, we meet a man and a woman who are on a date with each other in the pods. It’s classic Love is Blind: two perfectly fine people dropping minor bombshells and then being relieved when the other person doesn’t immediately ghost them. He’s been engaged before, she’s been married before — neither of them denied evolution or used fake tears on camera, so this is all pretty paint-by-numbers.

There’s not a lot to go on in this teaser, but the moment that will likely hook people has to be when the woman — why do we not know their names?? — reveals that her mother told her that maybe she’s not meant to be in a relationship. Ouch. Okay, now we are rooting for her.

As for where these singles hail from, it seems like Season 5 may have found its cast in Charlotte, North Carolina. A post on the casting company’s social media from last September announced that they were casting in Charlotte. That preceded another post from just a few months ago announcing even more cities. How many seasons of Love is Blind are in production at once?! Like we said up top, you can’t stop the pods!

As for when the new season will drop, that’s still unclear. We’ve still got to get an After the Altar catch-up with the Season 4 couples! One thing’s for sure: there’s a whole lot more Love is Blind on the way in 2023 and beyond.
