FOX has ordered 10 episodes of an unscripted dating series from Emmy Award-winning executive producer Mark Burnett ("Survivor," "The Voice"). Set in the Caribbean Islands, the series will take the instant "yes or no" connection of modern digital romance to the next level. Single men and women will match up, based on their instant chemistry, but the real soap opera will unfold when these budding couples discover whether or not they have the compatibility to make their relationships last. Further details will be announced at a later date.

"I am so happy to be making my first dating series with FOX," says Burnett. "It's a genre that attracts a wide audience and our series gives a very fresh perspective that mirrors real life."
