In each half-hour episode of First Dates, hopeful singles are filmed on their quest for love. The First Dates restaurant in downtown Vancouver is filled with real people on real first dates, while the ensuing drama is captured on over forty remote-controlled cameras. For some daters, there is an instant and very apparent attraction, but for others, it’s clear that there is never going to be a happy ending. Each date is a mini-drama that plays out in front of the cameras and drives towards a big pay off that keeps the audience hooked…Will any of these First Dates lead to a second?
