It hardly takes a minute to fall in love, and even lesser time to fall out of love. Don't believe us? Well, then you might want to watch CBS' hit reality dating show 'Love Island'. After enjoying two successful seasons, the popular reality dating show is all set to make a comeback with Season 3. 

Twelve hot 20-somethings are put up in a villa in Hawaii, where they are constantly under surveillance. These singles or Islanders as they are referred to, have to couple up and stay coupled up throughout the show and occasionally complete various challenges assigned to them. 'Love Island' has all the ingredients needed for a successful reality show - a bunch of youngsters, drama, romance, fights, and a healthy dose of competition. To shake things up, new islanders will be added regularly to the show. The current Islanders can ditch their existing partners for the new Islanders. The goal of the game is to remain coupled up until the end of the season, the winning couple will receive a cash prize and possibly a new romantic prospect.
