Are You the One? is a reality TV series made for MTV that puts young singles together in an attempt to create the perfect pair. Producers utilize a unique matchmaking algorithm that helps them pair men and women together to prepare them for the ultimate test. If the participants discern each "perfect match," they will receive $1 million. Singles would go through a series of challenges to enter dates with prospective partners - and then onto a "truth booth" where they can find out if they're the match for each other - if so, they'll be paired together for the remainder of the ceremonies in the season.
