CUPID, a new relationship reality series from "American Idol's" Simon Cowell, challenges America to find the
perfect mate for one eligible young woman. Lisa Shannon, the Cupid Girl, is a copywriter for an advertising agency. Lisa has
the full package: looks, personality and brains. However, Lisa has been unlucky in love and is looking to her friends to serve
as judges to help find Mr. Right and weed out Mr. Wrong. Along with her girlfriends, Kimberly and Laura, Lisa will conduct
a nationwide search to find the man of her dreams.
CUPID has two distinct parts. In the first two episodes, Lisa will crisscross the country with Kimberly and Laura, auditioning
potential suitors. During each audition, the guys will have 30 seconds to impress them. In episode three, the men who made
the first cut have one more chance to win over Lisa as she and her friends select the final 10 candidates.
Beginning in episode four, Lisa will get to know each of the 10 suitors better through a series of dates. During these
episodes, Lisa's friends will react to the filmed dates live, as they continue to judge whose intentions are honorable. Next,
America will get the chance to play Cupid by casting their votes to protect Lisa from the men they perceive are wrong for
her, in the hopes of steering her towards her ideal mate. While viewers decide who they believe is Lisa's perfect match, the
guy with the least amount of votes will be eliminated each week.
Once America casts their final vote, it's up to Lisa and her Mr. Right. Will he propose to her? Will she accept? And what
will happen to the $1 million dowry that's at stake? Will the couple be able to stay married for at least one year?
