TBS Orders ‘Wipeout’ Revival

TBS has greenlit a revival of competition game show “Wipeout,” features contestants competing in wildly creative and hilariously out-of-the box obstacle courses. The series originally aired on ABC from 2008 to 2014.

The re-imagined series will feature new format twists and elements that will push contestants’ athleticism and willpower to even greater extremes, all while delivering some pretty epic fails! Each game has been designed into three rounds and now features a three-stage, obstacle course consisting of multiple strategy and decision points designed to further challenge, and wear out, the stamina of the competitors. Returning to the game, an iconic staple with many surprises, are the big red balls, back with a vengeance.

Twenty episodes of the “Wipeout” revival have been ordered.
