Paradise Hotel

Paradise Hotel is an American reality television series that ran from June 2003 to October 2003 on Fox Reality Channel. In the show, a group of single people live in a high-end luxury hotel resort, competing to see who can live there for the longest. Every week, one person must leave. How that person is chosen, however, is unique from many other shows, but slightly reminiscent of Big Brother. At the end of each week, couples are formed to share a hotel room, and the one single person left over is sent home. In this game, it pays, literally, to socialize, flirt, and develop relationships, both platonic and romantic. The two winners, who are best at playing the social game, get $250,000. 00—quite a sum and quite the motivation to try anything and everything to stay in the hotel. Paradise Hotel is the ultimate dating contest, with a quarter million on the line. MORE
