UPDATED STORY (6/30/2022):

HBO Max has released the Season 2 trailer for its hit reality series FBOY Island, premiering Thursday, July 14. And in it, this season’s cast literally pops out of the sand and water to begin their dating journey and compete for $100,000.

“Half of the men are nice guys, and the other half, FBoys,” host Nikki Glaser warns of the 26 contestants. “Who’s here for love? Who’s here for cash? Who here has chlamydia?”

In FBOY Island, leading ladies Mia Emani Jones, Louise Barnard, and Tamaris Sepulveda must figure out which of the men are there for love and which are there for money. If they fall for one of the nice guys, the couple goes home with $100,000 to share. If they choose an FBoy, the FBoy takes it all. Letting FBoys win $100,000? In this economy?! The stakes are high.

ORIGINAL STORY (6/14/2022):

HBO Max’s hit reality series FBOY Island will officially come back for Season 2 this summer. Hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser, FBOY Island Season 2 will premiere Thursday, July 14, with new episodes coming out each week through August 4. And the streamer promises the return of some familiar faces and a bombshell plot twist that changes everything.

In the upcoming season of FBOY Island, three new women — Mia Emani Jones, Louise Barnard, and Tamaris Sepulveda — move to a tropical paradise where they’re joined by 26 men who may or may not be there for the right reasons. The 13 self-proclaimed “Nice Guys” will be looking for love, while 13 self-proclaimed “FBoys” are there to compete for cold, hard cash.

“The women will navigate the dating pool together with the hope of finding a lasting love connection,” HBO Max teases. “By the finale, all will be revealed: who is a Nice Guy, who is an FBoy, who the women ultimately choose, and who walks away with the prize money. FBOY Island is a social experiment that asks: Can FBoys truly reform or do Nice Guys always finish last?”

FBOY Island will drop the first three of 10 episodes on July 14, followed by three episodes on July 21, two episodes on July 28, and the final two episodes on August 4. Season 2 was filmed earlier this year in Cabo San Lucas.
