"90 Day Fiancé" premiered its first season on January 12, 2014 and went on to spawn a whole TV universe.

Per TLC's official description, it follows American-born subjects and their lovers during the 90 days that couples have to get married after the foreign partners have been approved for the K-1 "fiancé" visa.

In that time, the partner on the visa has to adjust to American culture and often meet their lover's family and friends for the first time. If the couple doesn't get legally married at the end of the 90 days, the foreign partner has to go back to their home country.

"90 Day Fiancé" season nine aired in 2022.
