Following the recent announcement of "Sea Naval" in co-production with DreamSpark, Satisfaction Group is continuing its expansion into premium entertainment formats with the launch of "Focus", a prime-time game show built around mental performance rather than general knowledge. The new format is set to premiere on TF1 and will be hosted by Arthur, one of France’s most prominent television personalities and the founder of Satisfaction Group.
"Focus is an exciting new kind of game show—intense, intelligent, and wildly entertaining," said Arthur. "It’s not about what you know, but how your brain works under pressure. We wanted to create a format where every viewer can imagine themselves in the arena. It’s fast-paced, emotional, and surprisingly addictive. Recording was thrilling and the play along powerful! I can’t wait to challenge the audiences and see how far their brain can really take them."
"Focus" departs from traditional quiz shows by shifting the challenge from trivia recall to raw cognitive ability. In a high-stakes competition, 50 contestants face off across six levels, each designed to test a different core brain function: Logic, Calculation, Memory, Visual Perception, Spatial Awareness, and Language. The show eliminates external aids—no lifelines, no devices, no artificial intelligence—leaving contestants to rely solely on their own mental agility.
With a sleek, futuristic 360° visual design and a play-along format that appeals to a broad demographic, "Focus" positions itself as a major entertainment event for TF1’s schedule. The format aims to capture viewers of all ages with its universal theme and innovative structure, merging competitive tension with cognitive fascination.
Satisfaction Group’s continued investment in high-impact, globally adaptable formats reinforces its strategic focus on delivering entertainment that combines spectacle, emotional engagement, and market scalability. With "Focus", the group not only offers TF1 a prime-time-ready property but also a format with international licensing potential, riding the wave of audience appetite for smart, participatory television.
