Married at First Sight is an international reality television franchise. It originated in Denmark in 2013, and was subsequently adopted in the United States in 2014, and the United Kingdom and Australia in 2015. Since then, television rights have been sold to many other countries.
Format The show is a social experiment where strangers are matched by dating experts and "marry" each other. At the end of each series, each couple decides if they want to stay together. The show, especially the Australian version, is known for its heated confrontations and controversial contestants.
International versions The format created in Denmark has been adapted in several countries.
