Kriti MehrotraNetflix’s new reality dating show ‘Too Hot to Handle’ premiers April 17, 2020, and the premise of the show is quite simple – put a group of hot single people in a villa for a month and give them the opportunity to find love and win $100,000. The twist, though, is that during their time on the island, they have to abstain from any and all kinds of sexual activity. They can’t even kiss! Whenever a cast member will do anything that they aren’t allowed to do, the prize money will drop. It’s evil, and completely genius.
