Peacock, the streaming service, has officially announced the renewal of Love Island USA for two additional seasons. This decision comes as no surprise, as the show has been labeled as Peacock’s No. 1 original reality series. Love Island USA follows a group of singles as they navigate the challenges of finding love in a villa. Throughout their stay in a tropical oasis, the Islanders face various obstacles, surprises, and “bombshells,” leading to unexpected twists and turns in their search for love.
Executive producer Simon Thomas shared his insight on the show’s success in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter following the conclusion of Love Island USA’s fifth season, which aired this past summer. Thomas expressed the goal of creating an experience for both the Islanders and the audience that feels like the best summer vacation of all time, complete with a hint of drama along the way. He also hinted at the possibility of introducing new elements in future seasons, anticipating surprises and innovative changes as the show continues to evolve.
In addition to the renewal, Peacock also wrapped up the inaugural season of Love Island Games, the franchise’s first-ever spinoff, with its finale airing on Monday. Love Island Games brought together fan-favorite Islanders from various international editions, including the U.K., U.S., and Australia, offering a second chance at love in a new and exciting format.
Love Island USA is produced by ITV Entertainment, with a team of executive producers including Thomas, David George, Adam Sher, Ben Thursby-Palmer, Andy Cadman, Iona Mackenzie, Sophie Bush, and Claudine Parrish for season five, along with Tom Gould, Richard Cowles, Mike Spencer, Richard Foster, and Chet Fenster. The show has received critical acclaim and has gained a dedicated fan base, leading to the availability of seasons four and five on Peacock, along with the first season of Love Island Games.
