One ride. New connections. Real decisions.
Could one conversation change who you choose?
Every stop introduces a new possibility. Feel the chemistry, ask the real questions, and decide whether to swap, cut, or keep. We are looking for people who can be fully themselves—not people forcing a reality-TV character.
Who should apply
Personality over follower count.
You do not need a huge social following or television experience. Authenticity, chemistry, story, and professionalism matter most.
01Age 18 or older, genuinely single, and open to a real connection
02Confident, expressive, and comfortable on camera
03Honest about dating, attraction, and dealbreakers
04Based in Houston or able to participate in Houston filming
05Reliable, responsive, and ready to complete production paperwork
How casting works
One application. A clear process.
Applying is consideration—not a guarantee of selection, employment, screen time, or compensation.
Prescreen
Selected applicants meet the Ill Intent casting team for a short video conversation.
Production review
Strong candidates are organized into episode-specific slates for Jenny and DETT.
Final casting
DETT makes the final selection and provides production terms and paperwork.
Official application
Ready to make your case?
The application takes approximately 8–10 minutes and includes a 45–60 second vertical introduction video. Final eligibility, filming dates, compensation, travel, and production terms will be provided before selected applicants confirm participation.
Casting safety
No fee. No pressure. No sensitive documents by DM.
Official casting will never require payment, gift cards, purchases, banking information, or a Social Security number. Do not send identity documents through social media or email unless an authorized production representative provides a secure method and explains why they are required.
Application information is reviewed only for casting and production purposes by authorized Ill Intent, Jenny Portillo, and DETT decision-makers. An application is not an appearance release. Applicant information is not sold and is retained only as needed for current casting—or future opportunities when the applicant separately opts in.
