Love in the Time of Corona: New quarantine series coming to Freeform
By Maria Alicia
What do singles on the prowl do during a quarantine? Freeform has the answer. They have announced that they will be releasing a mini-series called Love in the Time of Corona.
We feel like we all should have placed a bet on how long it would have taken COVID-19 related television shows to start popping up on our screens. Love in the Time of Corona will be the second, after Netflix’s Social Distancing.
But what are singles to do during this time? Love in the Time of Corona is a four-part limited series that will shed light on distanced dating in a comedic and lighthearted way. We are going to get to watch these characters make some critical quarantine decisions.
Who did they end up being stuck in quarantine with? Could it be an ex? Or maybe a roommate that they think can fill the love void? We all yearn for love and we all need it during this time.

According to Deadline, to make this show become a reality, actors will have to film the scripted show from the comfort of their own home by themselves. Meaning there will be no fancy sets or lighting crews. We will get to see these actors raw and in their natural habitats.
Love in the Time of Corona is being produced by Joanna Johnson and Christine Sacani, producers of Freeform’s Good Trouble.
They will be joined by Robyn Meisinger, producer of the movie The Bounty Hunter, to make this show come to life.
We have seen some of these situations play out in real life. We are sure you had your eyes on Bachelorette Hannah Brown quarantining with contestant Tyler Cameron at Tyler’s house in Florida. We know we did.
We can only imagine what the folks at Freeform are cooking up for us in their quarantine kitchen. If its anything like we have been seeing on social media, we are in for a treat!
The good news is you will only have to wait four short quarantine months until Love in the Time of Corona premieres! Will you be watching?
