Date: Unknown, the reality web series that features the first dates of people who meet online through social networks, has signed a revenue sharing deal with YouTube.

The show's unassuming hook-up with YouTube is as notable as the show's motif. As the story goes, creator Brandon Fletcher flew to California and walked into YouTube's offices to request a featured spot on the video-sharing site's home page. Looks like Fletcher got what he wanted and then some. The show is like Blind Date, only more contrived. Date: Unknown has gained a reported 60,000 views. Now Date: Unknown has joined the elite rank of those that have gotten a revenue-sharing deal with YouTube, which includes LG15 and Smosh.
