The show features celebrity couples living under one roof and facing extreme challenges that will test how well they really know each other. Each week, a couple will be eliminated until the last couple wins the grand prize.

From season five onwards, Adriane Galisteu replaced Gugu, following his death in late 2019, becoming the show's first female host. In season seven, Felipe Andreoli and Rafa Brites succeeded Galisteu, marking the show's first dual-hosting duo.
The fifth season, originally scheduled for 2020, was postponed to 2021 due to safety concerns arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.
