Synopsis
This season, find out what's in the closets of Florida when Room Raiders - the show about raiding closets and breaking hearts - heads to the Sunshine State.
This game show will let contestants decide who to date, based solely on the contents of their bedroom. Watch as one person is sent on a search mission in the bedrooms of three unsuspecting strangers who have no idea that someone will be searching through their things.
Without a word of warning, armed with the right tools for the ultimate search (rubber gloves and tweezers, naturally) the searchers are raiding the rooms of three unsuspecting people who will have no time to prepare for the break-in.
The raider does not meet or see any of the three singles (any personal photographs of the contestant are removed from the room or covered with a smiley face sticker) and chooses to go on a date with one of them based on the contents of their rooms.
The three contestants watch and comment, while sitting in a van, as their rooms are inspected. After the raider has finished with each of the rooms, the three contestants then raid the raider's room.
Finally, the raider confronts the three contestants and makes his or her choice.
