Fox ordered More to Love last week. Fox reality programming chief Mike Darnell -- who has previously greenlighted reality relationship shows like Married By America and Mr. Personality for Fox -- is billing it as the "first dating competition show in television history that reflects what most real single men and women look like, which makes it instantly relatable to the vast majority of people in the dating pool."
"This is a dating show that sends the right message about embracing and loving yourself no matter your shape or size," Fleiss added in the show's initial announcement. "When you are comfortable with your own body, you can really allow yourself to be open to the possibility of finding the right person to love."
More to Love is produced by Next Entertainment in association with Warner Horizon Television, with Sally Ann Salsano -- whose credits include MTV's A Shot at Love reality dating series franchise -- serving as executive producer with Fleiss.
