Momma&#8217;s boy, Frank, is a shy, over-thinking perfectionist who&#8217;s not confident with himself or the men he dates. Sam, in contrast, is an over-the-top, full-of-himself, eccentric wildflower who is all over the place and can&#8217;t pick a direction to save his life. The experts work to rein Sam in, while pushing Frank to let loose.<\/p>\n<p>Over 65,000 people have applied to participate in the hit series, Married at First Sight and our experts have seen more than a few memorable diamonds in the rough who aren&#8217;t quite marriage material&#8230; yet. Since everyone deserves a chance at love, this new spinoff series helps match 8 new potential couples, providing each of the 16 individuals from Atlanta, GA with strong relationship advice and a lifestyle overhaul. The process will give them each an opportunity to shed light on what has been stalling real romantic connections in their lives.<\/p><div id=\"morty-4085605048\" class=\"morty-content_2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>Married at First Sight: Unmatchables is executive produced by Chris Coelen, Eric Detwiler and Scott Teti from Kinetic Content and Cat Rodriguez for Lifetime.
