FBoy Island will return with a fresh new season on October 16, 2023, with its quick-witted host, Nikki Glaser. Several sneak peeks have been dropped, and they promise she won't let any of the men have an easy ride. Taking center stage this season are the leading ladies Katie Thurston, Hali Okeowo, and Daniella Grace. With $100,000 as dangling bait and their mysterious motives, the competition will surely get wild.

FBoy Island showcases three single women in pursuit of finding real love among 26 eligible bachelors. Half the group is termed "fboys," and the others are "nice guys," and the goal for the women is to categorize them accurately and judge if they're in it for a relationship or money.

Host, cast, and what to expect from FBoy Island season 3

With no official trailer drop, little sneak peeks hint at what's to come in FBoy Island. While the network has been incredibly secretive about the smaller details of season 3, there's so much to know before the bingeing begins.

How it works and what's at stake

FBoy Island brings singles onto an island to compete for the ultimate victory. The grand prize of $100,000, of course, depends on the contestant's role in the show.

The three leading ladies of the season, Katie, Hali, and Daniella, will be pursued by 26 single men. They will include 13 "nice guys" looking for companionship and 13 "fboys" gunning for money. The men are categorized into these groups before their arrival.

Which set the FBoy Island men belong to will remain a secret for the other players and the audience. Following the format of its earlier seasons, this will only be revealed upon the contestant's elimination.

The evicted "nice guys" then enjoy a luxurious vacation in a new house called the Nice Guys Grotto, while the "fboys" who don't get chosen get sent to a camp called Limbro for self-improvement.

The women will be tasked with working together to identify and eliminate the fboys and end up with a nice guy at the end of the competition. While it's not impossible that a bad boy could win them over, it could be detrimental to their end goal.

If the FBoy Island women choose a nice guy at the end, the prize fund of $100,000 gets evenly split between the pair. However, if they decide to couple up with an fboy, he bags all the cash. In a case like this, the fboy would then be given the opportunity to either keep the money for himself or share it with the lady who picked him.

FBoy Island season 3 promises to be filled with romance, sneaky tactics, and mystery.


The hilarious host
