HOUSTON, TEXAS: 'Love Is Blind' Season 5 was filmed in Houston, Texas. The first four seasons of the Netflix dating show were filmed in various bustling cities across the country that had fun activities for singles.

The show’s production company typically chooses to cast and film in highly-populated US cities.

'Love Is Blind' Season 1 was set in Atlanta, Georgia; Season 2 took place in Chicago, Illinois; Season 3 occurred in Dallas, Texas; and Season 4 was filmed in Seattle, Washington.

Meanwhile, the viewers are still gushing over the 'Love is Blind' Season 4, which showed the story of five couples who got engaged without being able to see each other.

However, three couples got married and one couple split up at the end of the season.

The upcoming season guarantees more sweet yet awkward moments as the singles explore connections in the pods and fall in love without seeing each other.

How were singles selected for 'Love Is Blind' Season 5?

Chris Coelen and Netflix sought out one specific criteria for single men and women interested in being cast on the show.

They announced the criteria on social media platforms and on the show's official webpage and held casting calls through different locations.

However, showrunner Chris Coelen revealed in an interview with EW, "We have a great casting department and they reached out to people who they felt would be genuinely interested in this kind of commitment."

Chris further disclosed, "We wanted people who aren't just doing it for the attention. There’s certainly plenty of places for people who want to do stuff for the attention. We wanted to be really dealing with people who were genuinely interested in it."

'Love Is Blind' Season 5 features 'incredible twists and turns'

Chris Coelen teased that the viewers could expect "incredible twists and turns" in 'Love Is Blind' Season 5. Chris revealed to EW, "There are really incredible twists and turns, and it's none of our doing."

He further stated that the show's unpredictability makes it fascinating. He credited the crew's willingness to simply go along with whatever was happening at the time, which ensures the show is interesting even after four seasons.

Who stars in 'Love Is Blind' Season 5?

Nick and Vanessa Lachey will be back to host the 10-episode season, which has been described as 'the most shocking season yet.'

However, the latest season of the Netflix show features 28 Houston-based singles who are in search of forever love.

'Love Is Blind' Season 5 cast includes ICU travel nurse Aaliyah, marketing manager Erica, teacher Estefania, lawyer Johnie, talent acquisition recruiter Linda, Geologist Lydia, HR specialist Maris, church minister Mayra, scientist Miriam, stylist Paige, veterinarian Renee, flight attendant Shondra, and director of operations Stacy. There is also Taylor, whose profession is unknown.

However, the dating show includes 14 handsome men too. They are geoscientist Connor, software sales Efrain, financial advisor Enoch, supply chain manager, oil and gas expert Ernesto, firefighter Jared, university director Jarred, sales rep Josh and personal trainer Justice. In addition, there is also Carter, Chris, Izzy, Milton, Robert and Uche — but we don't know their professions yet.
