Format
editThe show is based on the Italian dating show Uomini & Donne, and it is focused on single people. The 'tronistas' (from the Spanish/Italian word 'trono', meaning 'throne', because the protagonist is sitting on an imaginary throne) are 4, usually 2 men and 2 women. These are the protagonists, whose aim it is to find their soulmate among a pool of admirers. Every day, the "tronista" is introduced to a new suitor. The suitor introduces themselves and, based on this, the "tronista" then decides whether he/she would like to get to know them better or not.
The "tronista" also chooses the candidates they want to date outside the TV studio; on these dates, he/she gets the chance to get to know candidates better. There is, however, one fundamental rule which both the tronistas and the candidates must not break: they can only meet each other in front of cameras, never privately. If this rule is broken, they risk being kicked off the show.
At the point in time when the tronista comes to choose their soulmate, there are only a few candidates left awaiting their decision. The tronista can also leave the programme single if he/she so chooses. Another man/woman then replaces him/her on the throne.[9] Each episode features two tronistas. When their dates outside the TV studio are broadcast, the audience can listen to some background music (especially Spanish singers like Danny Romero).
