The show follows the lives of several strangers who are brought together to live in the same house for several months, with the filmed results airing in episodes.

The show’s executive producer, Jonathan Murray, says it’s seeking seven people with a larger-than-life personality, a unique life story, and “a personal magnetism that draws attention whenever they walk in the room.”

Other stops on the show’s casting-call tour include Miami, Orlando, San Francisco, Boston, Phoenix, Philadelphia and other college towns such as Ann Arbor, Michigan; Ames, Iowa; and Morgantown, West Virginia.
