U.K. series LoveIsland has finally come to America. Here's what to expect:
just happens to be one show where the frequency and the intensity — and, in some respects, the brevity — of the experience is part of what the show is about."
Plus, as Eilenberg adds, "The way people experience first love over a summer in real life is not spread out over the course of four months with cliffhangers once a week. It's all at once and you can barely keep track of it happening to yourself emotionally. Part of the reason why the show works is that we're able to capture that."Almost. Each episode is shot and mainly edited the day it airs, helped by a 19-hour Fiji time difference.
"We have cast, most of all, on sincerity of intent. No matter what other attributes somebody has, they have to have some degree of really wanting love, a connection, an adventure and something that can be transformational for their lives," Eilenberg says of the cast, which features people of various ethnicities."Once you see that the person is in it for the reasons that drive the show, then you're interested in the diversity of characters, their backgrounds and viewpoints.
