Chris Harrison returns to dating TV with Fox Nation’s ‘The Vow’
Chris Harrison is returning to reality dating TV as host and executive producer of Fox Nation’s new series, “The Vow.”
The show follows 30-year-old Jace Cates and 10 single women as they explore whether they could build lasting relationships.
Harrison, who spent nearly 20 years working on “The Bachelor,” said he wanted a format that felt more authentic and meaningful.
The show has no elimination ceremonies, and its participants discuss faith, family, communication and plans for the future.
The format puts long-term commitment and marriage at the center, rather than short-lived connections.

What people are saying
We were inspired by the faith-driven renaissance happening across America, and as a result, I believe we’ve created the most authentic dating show on television today
Right when I left, we were being pitched ideas that felt gimmicky that didn’t have the depth, and I [wanted] to wait until we found something that had soul, that we could really lean into and that’s what The Vow became.
If he was going to come back with anything, it needed to be something that was deeply authentic and that was about the pursuit of a real soulmate type of love, which means a lot to both of us.
