Different Types of People
While there is a small cast of people featured in the show, there is variety in race, age, and personality. The main characters hail from various coastal cities in the continental United States. The show demonstrates that people on the spectrum cannot be categorized as one type of person because of their autism. The cast members are communicative about their autism and what they want out of the dating experience.

Dating Advice
Before their dates, some of the cast members meet with Jennifer Cook, an author and autism expert who is on the spectrum as well. Cook gives the cast members advice about dating, communication, and conversation. Even if you’re a serial dater, you can still learn more about communication and manners on a first date.
