What is the marriage experiment in The Ultimatum?
Six couples enter after one partner says they are ready for marriage and the other is unsure. Netflix says they have just over eight weeks to decide whether to commit or move on ([Netflix Media Center](https://media.netflix.com/en/only-on-netflix/81292203)).
Do the couples date other people on The Ultimatum?
Yes. The original couples separate, choose trial partners from the cast, and live through a trial-marriage phase before making a final decision.
Who hosts The Ultimatum?
Nick and Vanessa Lachey host the original Marry or Move On format. They also host Love Is Blind, but The Ultimatum's core mechanic is the forced choice between marriage and leaving.
Is there a queer version of The Ultimatum?
Yes. Netflix released The Ultimatum: Queer Love as a related version with a different cast and relationship setup. The original series premiered in 2022.
