I'm confused because I remember they had a one hour special either last year or earlier this year where they tackled just getting married and looking for houses and talking about what they'd need in a house. Then they got the show and basically repeated everything they had done in the one hour special.

Did that one hour special get high ratings and that's why they got a show? Or had they been following them around all the time but put everything into a one hour special and when they realized people liked them, they cut the stuff into episodes?
