Format edit
The single guy needs to impress thirty single ladies through a series of videos or interviews about him. Each woman has a light which she can turn off if she is unimpressed by the single man. The man's aim is to convince as many women as possible to keep their lights on so that he can then pick, from the women remaining, the one that he wishes to take on a date. If no lights are left on, then the man must leave the show without a date. At the end of the game, the guy may choose a date from the women who leave their lights on.
