Done with kissing frogs? The dating-TV formula perfected by hit shows like The Bachelor is getting a revamp, as Logo launches its new series Finding Prince Charming, featuring a cast of gay men. The cable channel announced the show on Tuesday, July 12.
Finding Prince Charming, hosted by Lance Bass, is currently in production and will air on Logo in the fall. The series focuses on 13 eligible men competing for the affections of a highly sought-after gay hunk, who will eliminate his suitors one by one until he selects the guy he wants for an exclusive relationship.
“Logo has a long history of showcasing LGBTQ-focused stories with memorable characters that transcend pop culture,” said Logo exec Pamela Post in a statement. "Finding Prince Charming will take viewers on a whirlwind journey through modern love and relationships in a way that only Logo can do.”
Logo has not officially announced the identity of the guy who the 13 others will be fighting for, but TMZ reports that the lucky man is Robert Sepulveda Jr., an Atlanta-based interior designer who boasts over 56,000 Instagram followers thanks in part to his model-esque face and insanely chiseled bod.

It will be interesting to see if Prince Charming has better luck forging lasting relationships than ABC's The Bachelor has. From the show's 20 seasons, only two of the final couples remain: 2013's season 17 couple Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici, who tied the knot in 2014 and welcomed their first child earlier this month; and season 20's Ben Higgins and Lauren Bushnell, who are engaged. (Jason Mesnick is married to runner-up Molly Malaney, and they have two children.) Four of the final Bachelorette couples are still together, not counting season 12's JoJo Fletcher and her not-yet-revealed winner.
