Akin to Love is Blind, the brand new Netflix reality TV show aims to do away with superficialities and celebrate long-lasting, deeper connections instead. 

Love is Blind challenged contestants to find their significant other without ever laying eyes on them. In Too Hot to Handle, participants are allowed to look as long as they don't do anything else. 

If they manage to demonstrate emotional growth and forego kissing for four weeks, they get the chance to win the $100,000 price. 

"What I'm most proud of is my penis," Sharron Townsend nonchalantly informed the cameras in the first-ever episode of Too Hot to Handle, titled "Love, Sex or Money." Just like every other contestant on the show, the New Jersey-born model, personal trainer, and wrestling coach traveled all the way to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, without having been told about the strict rules. 

Though it would have been reasonable to assume that he would be even worse affected by the brutal regulations, this was far from the case. He and a fellow model, Rhonda Paul, started chatting within the first few minutes of having arrived at the beautiful villa — and the rest was history.
