Sexy Beasts

Sexy Beasts is a British reality television dating game show that originally and aired on BBC Three from 14 February to 9 September 2014 with Susan Calman as Narrator. Netflix revived the show from 21 July to 7 October 2021 with Rob Delaney as Narrator.[1][2][3][4][5]

Concept

The show's format involves one eligible single (male or female) and three possible suitors, all four of which have been made over with prosthetic makeup. Each "beast" will then go on a date with the singleton. Over the course of the show, two will be eliminated, at which point their make up is removed and their real identity is revealed for the first time. The remaining person is then chosen as the winner to go on a second date.[6]

Reception

Double Toasted was highly critical of the show; calling the dates shallow and finding the makeup unnecessary. They took issue with the entire premise with Chris Herman suggesting that the series should have centered around those associated with furry fandom.[8]

International versions

The show has been adapted and broadcast in several other countries including America on A&E,[9] Germany on Sixx[10] and South Korea on KBS.[11]
