    Too Hot to Handle has returned just in time for viewers to snuggle up on the couch and dream of warm Caribbean weather. The Netflix reality show is famous for gathering sex-crazed beautiful people and not letting them have sex, as a piece of surveillance tech named Lana tries to turn them from commitment-phobes to vulnerable, monogamous daters.

    For their fourth season, the show has raised the stakes, both in its initial false reality show set-up (they even recruited Mario Lopez!) to the prize pot, which has increased to $200,000. The first five episodes dropped on Wednesday, so let's meet the Too Hot to Handle season 4 cast members who will slowly chip at the pot for some very expensive kisses.

    Creed, 24, is an entrepreneur from Perth, Australia, who grew up working in a spray tan salon. He has more female friends than male friends, which he says is great because he can't live without women. He's also a nerd and a mama's boy, so he can work all the angles while dating.
