Powered by Reelgood

Clear your schedules, all you wannabe Islanders, because you’re about to embark on the epic journey that will be Love Island USA Season 5. The Peacock dating series drops dozens of super hot singles into a gorgeously far out villa in an exotic locale (hello, Fiji!) and rolls cameras while everyone mixes and mingles. Odds are you’re not going to a luxury getaway with 9 strangers in hopes of finding a fling (or more), so Love Island USA is your chance to get all your vicarious thrills.

Host Sarah Hyland (Modern Family) and the first round of Islanders are in the villa right now making Season 5 magic happen — did we mention that this show is shot in relative real-time? So, how can you join in on the fun? When does Love Island USA Season 5 air? Or, better question, which night of the week does Love Island USA not air? Here’s what you need to know!

When will Love Island USA Season 5 premiere on Peacock?

The Season 5 premiere of Love Island USA drops on Tuesday, July 18 at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT on Peacock. Summer starts… now!

What is the Love Island USA Season 5 release schedule and episode count?

Love Island USA drops new episodes at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT. While we don’t yet know how many episodes there will be in Season 5, we do know that the show’s debut season on Peacock contained 38 episodes. So if the release schedule remains the same and if Saturday night remains Unseen Bits territory, then Season 5 should look like…

  • Episodes 1-8: Tuesday, July 18 to Tuesday, July 25
  • Episodes 9-14: Thursday, July 26 to Tuesday, August 1
  • Episodes 15-20: Thursday, August 3 to Tuesday, August 8
  • Episodes 21-26: Thursday, August 10 to Tuesday, August 15
  • Episodes 27-32: Thursday, August 17 to Tuesday, August 22
  • Episodes 33-38: Thursday, August 24 to Tuesday, August 29

And as mentioned above, Saturday night’s installments will likely be what the series calls Unseen Bits. Those episodes include outtakes, funny moments, and weird stuff that didn’t make the cut.

When is the Love Island USA Season 5 finale?

As you can see above, we’re guessing the season will wrap up with Episode 38 on Tuesday, August 29 at 9 p.m. ET. Last season lasted 38 episodes and that number lines up perfectly with Season 5’s release schedule, too.
