NBC is launching a Jane Austen inspired dating show.
Originally called “Pride & Prejudice: An Experiment in Romance,” it’s been renamed “The Courtship.”
NBC released a statement about how the show works: "Transported to a Regency-style England, a group of eligible hopeful suitors will have to win the heart of our heroine, and her court. Housed in a castle on the countryside, set on a beautiful backdrop of rolling hills, the heroine and suitors will experience that with which dreams are made. From carriage rides and boat rides on the lake to archery and handwritten letters to communicate, they will be immersed in a time-traveling quest for love. In the end, our heroine and her suitors will discover if the ultimate romantic experience will find them true love."
It premieres March 6 on NBC and will stream the next day on Peacock.
