NBC is bringing back Fear Factor
« on: June 03, 2011, 05:49:00 PM »
From "Cynopsis", a preview of tv shows:

In other NBC news, the network is resuscitating reality series Fear Factor which ran on the network for five years starting in 2001.  Paul Telegdy, head of alternative programming for NBC, saw sister network, Chiller pull in solid ratings with Fear Factor reruns which prompted NBC to consider reviving the show and discussing a comeback with the show's production company Endemol USA.  It has not been announced who will host the re-issued show or when it will premiere.

I'm not expecting Joe Rogan to return as host.

And why not, pray tell? What do you know that you're not sharing?

All reports I've seen indicate Rogan is in the running to return as presenter.  A second series of "Game Show in My Head" must not be going forward, or may have to find a new presenter if Rogan gets the FF gig.

I don't think you have much to worry about that.

It's official...
Your embarrassed retraction is noted.

This is why I was hoping that the Reputation-o-Meter buttons in the lower right of every post were functional.

I used to like this show, but i'm not so sure bringing it back is such a great idea as it seemed ot have ran it's course.  I also heard the show is getting rid of the eating challenge, probably for the best since some of that crap they forced you to eat could make you really sick.  Honestly, i'd rather see a revival of "The Chamber"(which I found underrated, wish I could see those unaired episodes)

No, I think you're describing a tournament of champions episode, there.
