The Untold Truth Of TLC's Hot And Heavy
Oct 27 2020
TLC's Hot & Heavy is proof of the network's commitment to push the envelope when it comes to reality programming focusing on relationships. The show focuses on three couples, all of which feature a male of average weight and a female who is obese. Here are some things you may not know about Hot & Heavy.
Given the controversial subject matter and provocative title of TLC's Hot & Heavy, it shouldn't be surprising that the series was hit with backlash. What was surprising, however, was how quickly it erupted — and that it struck weeks before a single episode of the series had even aired. A big part of that had to do with a brief teaser the network shared on social media, introducing the three couples featured on the show.
TLC's announcement of Hot & Heavy in December 2019 came nearly a month before the show's scheduled premiere date in January 2020. Yet after people watched the promo, media outlets ranging from CNN to The Blast reported on all the intense controversy the show stirred up.
