‘WTF did I just watch?’: Netflix’s bizarre new dating show Sexy Beasts leaves viewers baffled
Netflix's new dating show, described as "the strangest blind date EVER" left fans baffled after the streaming platform released a first look at the upcoming bizarre show, "Sexy Beasts".
The new reality series sees participants go on "blind dates" in full elaborate masks and prosthetic make-up provided by Hollywood make-up artists.
Catastrophe star Rob Delaney presents the show based on a 2014 UK series by BBC Three also called Sexy Beasts.
In the trailer, a woman disguised under a panda mask declares that she wants to have babies before she turns 28. "Alright, I want babies, preferably before I'm 26. Do you have health insurance," she proceeded to cheekily ask. Take a look at the trailer below!
A man wearing a beaver mask is also seen saying: “Ass first, personality second.”
Unsurprisingly, many viewers have been left with an array of questions about the wacky dating series.
“WTF did I just watch!?” tweeted one confused viewer, while another added: “Is this furreal?”
I truly would love to know the Netflix algorithm that led to Sexy Beasts getting greenlit. Like is there a huge subset of people who alternate binge watching "Love is Blind" and 80s body horror movies? pic.twitter.com/DjLQquW4RN

“This almost makes me want to cancel my subscription,” wrote another outraged viewer.
“Everyone involved with this show should be arrested,” succinctly tweeted somebody else.
