'Since January 2001, the program has therefore assumed a completely different format, incorporating part of the formula of Dating Agencies: to form a pair that can start a romantic relationship in real life.
Every season a tronista is appointed. A tronista is the one looking for partner. he/she sits on a chair that looks a throne (hence the nickname tronista ) and is presented some men/women. When the tronista will feel ready to have to make his/her choice. Obviously it remains for the person chosen the right to accept or not to start a relationship with the tronista .
The studio audience, that in the previous version commented on various family problems of the guests, is now called upon to make judgments on the tronista and/or their suitors and their behavior.
From January 2010 in the program added a new type of throne: the so-called Throne Over where the participants are men and women with age from forty up. In this throne there isn't a single tronista but two groups of men and women looking for a new love, and who may choose to learn about the various participants the person they feel greater intimacy and affinity with; in this throne there are no deadlines and suitors can exchange phone contacts and see each other outside the television studios, without cameras.'
