'It Takes a Church' Season 2 Debuts on GSN Tonight; Natalie Grant Hosted Game Show Looks to Find Love Among the Saints
Tonight popular game show channel GSN will premiere the second season of the hit matchmaking show, "IT TAKES A CHURCH" at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT.
Multiple Dove Award winner, Natalie Grant, is returning as the host and will be visiting churches in California, Michigan, Tennessee, Alabama, Indiana, and Wyoming in hopes of finding love for one single congregant.
Every week "IT TAKES A CHURCH" will travel to a different location, and surprise one unsuspecting single with the news that they are about to be saved from the dating world, as numerous matchmakers present people they believe would be a great match. The bachelor/bachelorette will not be the one to set themselves up; their family, friends and those closest to them in the community will bring the pair together. After a couple of dates, one person will be chosen, and the matchmaker who brought the couple together will win a donation made to the church in their name.
Highlights and previews from season two include special guest appearances by actors/performers David & Tamela Mann ("Madea's Big Happy Family") and musician Bo Bice ("American Idol"), plus a shocking surprise proposal.
In its first season, "IT TAKES A CHURCH" was watched by over six million people and it achieved triple-digit growth among W18-49 (+113%) and nearly double the audience among W25-54 (+94%), P18-49 (+88%) and P25-54 (+70%) versus the YTD time period average, according to a press release.
"IT TAKES A CHURCH" is produced by Authentic Entertainment for GSN, with Tom Rogan and Lauren Lexton ("Flipping Out," "The Best Thing I Ever Ate") serving as Executive Producers along with Curnal Aulisio. Sean Kelly ("Minute to Win It") is Consulting Producer.
