Naked Attraction

12 Seasons
A dating show where a person has five choices of a potential date. The catch: the five choices are not only presented totally nude, including of their privates, and unadorned, but that they are presented in three different body segments - first from the abdomen down, second from the neck down, and third of the entire body and face - with one of the potential dates eliminated by the chooser at the end of each stage until one person remains. Beyond the body and face being revealed in that latter visual stage, the potential dates are then allowed to speak. And what's good for the goose is also good for the gander as when there are only two potential dates left standing, the person choosing also strips down to their birthday suit to let the two potential dates see what they may be getting.
