The CW has rebranded the reality dating series originally titled “FGirl Island” to “Lovers and Liars,” set to premiere in April 2024, where three single men will navigate a tropical island filled with 24 women to find love or win a $100,000 prize. Nikki Glaser continues her role as host for this spinoff of “FBoy Island,” which has shifted from HBO Max to The CW and was filmed back-to-back with its predecessor in Malibu to reduce production costs.
The CW rebranded its reality dating series “FGirl Island” to “Lovers and Liars,” set to premiere in April 2024, where three single men on a tropical island must discern if the 24 women are seeking love or a $100,000 prize, with the show being hosted by Nikki Glaser.
Oh boy, The CW’s got a fresh twist on the whole ‘FBoy Island’ saga, and it’s something you won’t wanna miss. They’re calling it ‘Lovers and Liars’ now. Yep, you heard that right.
Originally dubbed ‘FGirl Island,’ this reality dating series was first announced back in March 2023. It’s all about three single dudes on a tropical paradise. Their mission? Figuring out if the 24 women around them are in it for love or just eyeing that sweet $100,000 prize. Talk about a plot twist, huh?
Before we dive deep into April 2024, when this show hits our screens, let’s rewind a bit. Remember ‘FBoy Island’ that first aired in July 2021? That show had three women trying to sift through a mix of “nice guys” and “FBoys.” And boy, they had no clue who was who. The drama, the suspense – classic!
Fast forward to October 2023, and we hit season 3 of ‘FBoy Island.’ This time, Katie Thurston from ‘Bachelorette’ fame, model Hali Okeowo, and influencer Daniella Grace were the stars. They navigated through their pool of guys, ending up with Vince Xu, Mercedes Know, and Christian Love, respectively. And guess what? For the first time ever, all three couples split the $100,000 prize. Though, Thurston later spilled the beans that her romance with Xu didn’t last. Drama, drama, drama.

Oh, and while we’re at it, let’s not forget the TV show rollercoaster. Us Weekly’s got the scoop on which shows are getting the axe and which ones are sticking around. ‘Slow Horses’ snagged a renewal for its fifth season in early January 2024, thanks to Apple TV+. So, there’s that.
Now, back to ‘Lovers and Liars.’ Mark your calendars for April 11, 2024, at 9 p.m. ET. There’s even a sneak peek coming on April 1. As for the stars of the show? Well, that’s still under wraps. The suspense, right?
And who’s hosting this shindig? None other than Nikki Glaser. She’s been the face of ‘FBoy Island’ for three seasons and isn’t going anywhere for this spinoff.
Filming details, you ask? After moving from HBO Max to The CW in 2023, both ‘Lovers and Liars’ and ‘FBoy Island’ were filmed back-to-back in Malibu. Why? To save those precious dollars. According to reality chief Heather Olander, shooting two seasons at once made things way more cost-effective. Smart move, CW. Smart move.
