Singer, dancer and social media influencer Todrick Hall and HGTV designer Kim Myles will find the flashiest, most over-the-top, outrageous home in America in Battle of the Bling.

The five-episode series will follow Todrick and design expert Kim as they tour 15 strikingly bold properties nominated by homeowners who believe theirs is the most ostentatious, unapologetically 'extra' home bar none.

Ultimately, Todrick and Kim, with help from a panel including Alison Victoria, Keith Bynum and 'The Queen of Versailles' Jackie Siegel, will bestow the "blingiest of them all" with bragging rights, a magnificent trophy and a spread in HGTV Magazine.

Love is Blind 4

Singles who want to be loved for who they are have signed up for a less-conventional approach to modern dating in Seattle, and will choose someone to marry without ever meeting them.

Over several weeks, the newly engaged couples will move in together, plan their wedding and find out if their physical connection matches their strong emotional bond developed in the Pods.

When their wedding day arrives, will real-world realities and external factors push them apart, or will they marry the person they fell blindly in love with?

Hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey, this 12-episode season will uncover whether looks, race or age do matter, or if love really is blind.

Starting today, new episodes will roll out each Friday across 12 episodes, following the couples' journey for love:

Week 1 (Friday, March 24): Episodes 1-5

Week 2 (Friday, March 31): Episodes 6-8

Week 3 (Friday, April 7): Episodes 9-11

Week 4 (Friday, April 14): Episode 12
