Down for Love: Official trailer
Down for Love is ready to watch on Netflix and already, subscribers are keen to know if there could be more to come.
Following in the footsteps of other dating shows like Love is Blind The Ultimatum, Down for Love explores the highs and lows of finding romance when you have Down’s Syndrome.
A group of singletons with the condition open up about their desire for a partner and let a camera crew follow their dates, all the while being honest about how it’s going.
Will there be a Down for Love season 2?
Down for Love premiered internationally on Friday, August 11, on Netflix, with all five episodes coming out in one go.
Prior to being released on the streamer, the dating show came out in New Zealand on TVNZ last year.

And even though it has just come out on Netflix, TVNZ already greenlighted the series for a second outing.
Back in October, Attitude Pictures, the production company which created Down for Love, was in search of stars for season two.
Alongside the trailer for series one, Attitude Pictures posted on Instagram: “Down for Love season two casting call!
“Made in consultation with @nz_down_syndrome, Down for Love focuses on people living with an intellectual disability as they search for romance.
“If you live with Down Syndrome or another intellectual disability and you are looking for the love of your life, want to explore local dating options or learn the tools to woo your future partner – Attitude Pictures would love to hear from you!”

So far, it is unclear when Down for Love will be back for a second season with no talks of a return date just yet.
Given that the first series was released last year with Attitude Pictures doing a cast call 10 months ago could indicate it will be sometime until the new episodes are out on Netflix.
According to the streamer, Down for Love is a “heartwarming quest for love that follows several people with Down’s syndrome as they navigate the trials and triumphs of dating”.
It has been described as a “feel-good show” that “aims to showcase the joys and challenges of finding love while breaking down stereotypes and promoting inclusivity”.
Opening up to The Spin-off about its creation, producer Robyn Paterson added about the initial idea for Down for Love.
She said the team “were wanting to do something in the area of love and relationships, because there are significant barriers for people living with disabilities.
“And I really wanted to bring more of a documentary lens to it, so that it could go beyond just entertainment.”
Down for Love is available to watch on Netflix.
