Love Island USA season 5 began streaming on Peacock on July 18, with episode 17 airing on August 5. While the series is just getting started, viewers might be wondering how much of it still remains. Love Island USA is based on the phenomenally popular Love Island UK, and has adopted its style of streaming in the last several years. After moving from a traditional network to a streaming platform, Love Island USA was able to buy into the model that makes the UK version such a success: nightly episodes. With episodes of Love Island USA streaming six nights per week on Peacock, the series provides far more content than other reality TV shows.

With a fan base on its own, Love Island USA has upped the stakes for viewers by adding in several new elements in its newest season. With an appearance by Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix already teased, and the addition of a popular Love Island UK alum Maura Higgins as social media correspondent, things have already been shaken up for the new season. With more twists promised by host Sarah Hyland, the season promises to be an exciting shift.
