Berlin, January 24, 2023: It's cold outside, German winters are long and dark - everyone's craving hot temperatures or a steamy adventure at least. Meet the hottest local singles who come together in a tropical paradise for what they think will be the sexiest vacation of their lives, participating in the made-up reality dating show Tropical Desire. But surprise: Instead of getting hot and heavy, they have to compete for a cash prize under strict no touching'-rules as the first-ever contestants of Too Hot To Handle: Germany.

With omniscient supercomputer Lana watching, will these wild German-speaking heartbreakers be able to stick to the rules and abstain from any kind of sexual contact (or self-gratification) in order to form meaningful connections, and keep that prize money as high as their sex drives? The pressures on (quite literally)!

From entertainment production house Fremantle for Netflix, the international original Too Hot To Handle has quickly become a fan-favorite among global reality TV formats and most recently successfully premiered its fourth season. After a Brazilian and a Spanish-language spin-off, it's high time to bring the fiery format to Germany!

Too Hot To Handle: Germany is produced by UFA Show & Factual GmbH.

About TOO HOT TO HANDLE: GERMANY

The hottest German-speaking singles come together in a tropical paradise for what they think will be the most exotic and erotic time of their lives - but there's a twist. These commitment-phobes who love a casual hook-up will have to give up all sexy touching for the entire retreat if they want to win the 200,000 grand prize. No kissing, no heavy petting, and no self-gratification of any kind. With every slip, the prize money goes down. In this luxury no-bone zone, will the serial singletons be able to form deeper emotional connections? Or will the temptation simply be too hot to handle?
