"The Quiz With Balls"
After "The Floor" success in Spain, Atresmedia is betting on a new Talpa Studios gameshow, "The Quiz With Balls". The company will air the eight episodes program this year on Antena 3, marking the third territory for the title, after the Netherlands and the USA. The production for the program will take place in Talpa Studios’ hub location in the Netherlands in collaboration with Spanish producer Warner Bros.
Carmen Ferreiro, Entertainment Programming Director of Atresmedia TV: "Atresmedia is committed to showing the best entertainment formats from around the world, and we're always on the lookout for fresh, innovative formats that fit in with our television model. 'The Quiz With Balls' meets all the characteristics we look for in a quiz show: it's a fun and innovative program for all audiences."
Sebastian van Barneveld, Talpa Studios’ Director Global Distribution: “Last summer, 'The Quiz With Balls' premiered on SBS6 in the Netherlands, where it became an instant summer hit and was rewarded with an order for a four-episode winter special. The show’s second season will air on SBS6 later this year, and of course, we're thrilled that the format is going international, travelling to the U.S. and now Spain.”
RULES
This fun game show features five contestants standing on a high platform over a swimming pool, ten exciting quiz questions and six giant balls. In each episode, a team of five friends, family members or colleagues, competes for a cash prize by answering one quiz question after another. For each question, each team member chooses one of six answer options. The answer options are linked to the balls, which start to roll when all answers are given. If a player stands on a correct answer, the ball stops just in time. If not, the ball will mercilessly knock the player into the pool.
