TBS has ordered a revival of the competition series Wipeout, which will feature a reimagined format.
The network has ordered 20 episodes, featuring contestants competing in wildly creative and out-of-the-box obstacle courses. The reimagined series will feature new format twists and elements that will push contestants’ athleticism and willpower to even greater extremes. Each game has been designed into three rounds and now features a three-stage, obstacle course consisting of multiple strategies and decision points. Returning to the game are the big red balls—back with a vengeance. Endemol Shine North America will produce the series.
Following its debut as the number one new show of the summer in 2008 on ABC, Wipeout had seven seasons on-air in the U.S. The format has seen various adaptations in more than 30 global territories such as Argentina, Australia and the U.K. and has inspired numerous spin-offs and specials.
