Courtesy of Tubi “I value friendship so much at this stage in life,” Paytas tells THR. “When you have a good quality friend who wants the best for you, it’s a game changer. It’s so hard for us as individuals to see red flags for ourselves, but it is much easier to spot them from a mile away for others. If your friend approves of the one you’re dating, it’s a major green flag.” She adds, “The show is a fun spin on a classic dating show, and I wanted this to be done right. Queer love is so beautiful and deserves the representation on a bigger platform. I wanted everyone to feel safe and looked after. I also wanted it to be really fun and creative, so I wanted to enlist professionals. I loved the old-school, fast-paced dating shows when I was in high school, and I wanted this to be a show everyone can watch and just smile.”

“Trisha is exactly the kind of creator we want to be in business with,” Tubi GM of creator programs and executive vp of business development Rich Bloom said in a joint statement. “She has a distinctive voice, a deeply loyal fanbase and the kind of bold, unfiltered storytelling that resonates with Tubi audiences. Don’t Date Alone is so uniquely Trisha: hilarious, genuine and just a little over the top. Given the intimate relationship she’s built with her fans, stepping in to help sort out their love lives is a natural next step for her, and we’re thrilled Tubi is the place where she’s doing it.”
