Plot

Each week either the guys (bachelors) or girls (bachelorettes) have control of the rose ceremony, with control switching each week. Each rose ceremony has contestants giving roses to 'save' another person from being eliminated and not finding love in paradise. There is always an uneven number of men and women, with a number of bachelors and bachelorettes being introduced each week, so there is always someone eliminated.[4]

The show is based on love and many dramas unfold because of some heated arguments as a result of contestant's feelings being put to the test.

A 'behind-the-scenes' show called 'After Paradise' aired during season 1 after the rose ceremony each week on 10Play, giving viewers an opportunity to have a peek at what happens in paradise.[5][6] After Paradise was discontinued in season 2 and was replaced by a weekly insider guide hosted by Osher Günsberg.
