Bell Media

Bell Media has picked up the distribution rights to rebooted reality series Temptation Island. The revival, premiering on E! Jan. 15 at 10 p.m., follows the format of the 2001 iteration, which places four couples in paradise and proceeds to test their relationship to see who will go the distance.

In drama news, the company has also landed simulcast rights to the second season of Killing Eve.

Season two will premiere same date, same time as the U.S. on April 7 at 8 p.m. The series stars Canadian—and recent Golden Globe winner—Sandra Oh as a MI6 agent obsessed with catching unpredictable assassin Villanelle, played by Jodie Comer, who quickly becomes infatuated with Eve herself.
