Hang Up

Love reality dating shows but tired of the obsession with marriage? Welcome to Hang Up, a reality dating show with no rings attached.In each season, one person is matched with six prospective love interests. They go on dates over the phone and never see each other. After the dates, the Star chooses one person to “hang up” on and eliminate from the show.And there’s a twist— in the end, the final, winning caller makes their own choice: to either choose the Star back and take an all-expenses-paid vacation together or hang up on the Star and take a cash prize instead.

We have a treat for y’all! This episode is like a whole season of everything you love about Hang Up recorded in front of a live audience.

Our Star Maxine is a 26 year old bartender in Richmond, Virginia, looking for a date, preferably someone snarky who can match her humor and not someone who chews gum and loves Harry Potter. She now has six Callers who have one shot to make a first impression in a high stakes seven minute Speed Dial date. To pick her perfect match, she asks how they feel about roller coasters and Pitbull, their favorite Sean Paul song, and if they’ve ever been to therapy.And in the end, one Caller gets the hang up.
