OWN’s dating series THE NEVER EVER METS, hosted by actress Ta’Rhonda Jones, returns for its second season on Friday, April 4 at 8pm ET/PT. The dynamic new season features seven new couples who have built strong love connections online but have never met in person. Now, they’ll spend three weeks together in a lush LA villa to see if their virtual chemistry translates to real life. As they take their relationships to the next level, shocking secrets and bombshell revelations bring into question whether their love stories can survive off the screen.
As the couples finally meet face to face and settle in, they soon discover they have a lot more to learn about each other. Reprising her role as host and relationship sensei, Jones leads the couples through fun dates and bonding activities each week. Designed to test their physical and emotional connections, each exercise also reveals new insight about their partners. For some, major secrets and red flags call for a couple’s session with an expert, while for others a night (or two!) in the Intimacy Suite seals the deal. With no filters, some relationships heat up while others cool down. Whose love will deepen, and who will go home single?
In the premiere episode jitters run high as the couples meet in person, wondering if their partners will match their expectations. Charli and Jared have been talking for over four years and are eager to connect in real life. However, they’ve both been hiding major life-changing secrets from each other. As a plus-sized model, Keke is confident in her own skin, yet still nervous to meet Brandon. When the two finally meet, Brandon discovers a habit of Keke’s that becomes a major concern for him. As the couples embark on their first dates, will their real-life attraction match the chemistry they’ve built online?
The first season of THE NEVER EVER METS ranked as Friday night’s #1 original series on ad-supported cable in its time period across all key African American demos, seeing double-digit ratings growth during its run.
