Channel 12 and Talpa Studios sealed a deal for the adaptation of the game show " The Quiz with Balls." The Uruguayan adaptation will air weekly on Teledoce, bringing its unique mix of trivia, tension, and unexpected plunges to local audiences.
Sebastian van Barneveld, Director Global Distribution at Talpa Studios shared his excitement: “It’s fantastic to see "The Quiz with Balls" continue its global journey, especially in Latin America. The suspense of deciding which family member to sacrifice for a shot at victory keeps viewers on the edge of their seats - especially when it ends with a splash! Release the balls!"
Ana Laura Gonzalez Tello, Production Manager, Channel 12, Uruguay, added: “We’re thrilled to bring "The Quiz with Balls to Uruguay". This show combines trivia, family fun, and the ultimate challenge – staying dry! Our primetime entertainment lineup is strong, featuring the best international formats, and we’re confident this show will be a highlight for 2025. Audiences are going to love it!”
This 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. Each question has as many correct answers as the number of players left on the platform. In the case of question 1, that means five correct answers and one wrong answer. With each player falling into the pool, a wrong answer is added to the six answer options of the next question. For each team, the key is to stay as complete as possible for as long as possible since the tenth and final question is worth a huge cash prize.
