The unscripted romance series 'Age of Attraction,' a take on 'Love Is Blind' that matches candidates based on 'chemistry, compatibility, and an undeniable spark' while banning questions about age, is concluding with a reunion episode. However, the reunion will not air on Netflix, but rather on the 'The Viall Files' YouTube channel at 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday, April 1. The show is hosted by content creators Nick Viall and Natalie Joy, who are 44 and 26 respectively, and the series has been greenlit for a second season.

Why it matters

The 'Age of Attraction' reunion episode provides closure for viewers after the dramatic finale of the first season. The decision to air the reunion exclusively on YouTube rather than Netflix is an interesting distribution strategy, as it may help drive viewership and engagement for 'The Viall Files' channel. The show's premise of matching couples without considering age differences has also sparked discussion around societal attitudes towards age-gap relationships.

The details

The 'Age of Attraction' reunion will feature updates on the couples from the first season, including Vanessa Drozda, a 1993 Louisville High School graduate who found love on the show. The reunion will stream live on 'The Viall Files' YouTube channel at 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday, April 1. Hosts Nick Viall and Natalie Joy, who are 44 and 26 respectively, previously worked together on the popular 'The Viall Files' podcast before getting married in 2024. Viall also had experience on 'The Bachelorette' and 'Bachelor' franchises prior to 'Age of Attraction.'
