HBO has released a trailer for a wild-looking new TV dating show featuring three women and 24 men called Fboy Island. Watch below:
It seems that many producers are using the Love Island concept as a foundation to starting new weird and wacky versions in order to deliver a fresh take on an old idea. That idea being - put a load of young and good-looking people on an island together and watch what happens.

The three women are cast to 'find love' and don't want to be with anymore 'fboys'.
If one was to give some context, according to Urban Dictionary, an fboy is "Some guy who finna play with your feeling. Lead you on. He actin like he love you then he messing with other girls. HE FINNA PLAY EVERY GIRL HE THINKS HE CAN GET. Dont be an fboy."
To be fair though, this is what makes this show potentially different to the rest.
Out of the 24 men, 12 of them are self-proclaimed, 'fboys', with the other 12 being titled as 'nice guys'.
It's up to the three women to decide for themselves who they like, with the 'true identity' of each guy will be revealed afterwards.

In addition to that, each member has the chance to win $100,000, which is nothing new. The women must work out who is looking for a relationship and who just wants to grab the cash. Nice.
The show is set in the Cayman Islands, so if you love looking at people in swimwear the whole time, along with a lot of gossip and sex, this is probably the show for you.
Here are the three lucky women:
CJ Franco, 30, from LA is a content creater and model. According to People, her therapist told her to go on the show because it would be a good exercise in mental endurance and resilience.
Nakia Renee, 28, is also from LA but is a hair/makeup stylist and a singer/songwriter. She apparently joined the show to get out of her comfort zone and liked the idea of being part of a format that is focused on female empowerment.
The youngest contestant from the bunch is social media manager Sarah Emig, 25, from Chicago. She saw joining the show as an opportunity to meet someone with a similar mindset.

The new series will be streamed on HBO MAX, starting on 29 July.
