Could exporting game shows be the next trend for Japan? The TV phenomenon sweeping the globe is finally making its way to American television! Hole In The Wall (a.k.a. HUMAN TETRIS) is the most downloaded Japanese game show ever on the net. Now FremantleMedia, the company behind American Idol, is looking for trios (friends, co-workers, spouses, etc) to take part in one of the most outrageous, funny, and challenging game shows ever seen on television!
If you are interested in being a contestant you must assemble a team of 3 people. They are seeking teams of three that have a common thread. Here are a few examples that they hope to find:
Family, friends, co-workers, bridesmaids, triplets, sorority sisters, fraternity brothers, nurses, doctors, firemen, policemen, pilots, flight attendants, triplets, ballerinas, construction workers, etc…
All team members MUST be 18 years of age and U.S. citizens.
