Logo has greenlit dating series, Finding Prince Charming, which will feature a cast of gay men competing to win the favor of America’s Most Eligible Gay Heartthrob. Lance Bass is hosting the show from Brian Graden Media.

Currently in production, Finding Prince Charming will debut on Logo in the fall. The set-up sees 13 handsome and sexy suitors, all housed together, who compete for a moment of intimate connection, romance and, perhaps, true love, with the designated object of their affection. One by one, the suitors are eliminated until the heartthrob chooses the ideal man to sweep him off of his feet and commit to an exclusive relationship.

Logo’s Pamela Post, SVP of Original Programming, says the network “has a long history of showcasing LGBTQ-focused stories with memorable characters that transcend pop culture. Finding Prince Charming will take viewers on a whirlwind journey through modern love and relationships in a way that only Logo can do.”

Bass most recently was a contributing panelist on The Meredith Vieira Show, and hosted the SIRIUS XM pop culture radio program, “Dirty Pop.” This year, along with Fnding Prince Charming, Bass will relaunch his PodcastOne show.
