Two-time Emmy(R) Nominee and Comedienne Leslie Jones Hosts
"Give Me The Roses, Richard!" - ABC is bringing back classic TV game show "Supermarket Sweep," premiering SUNDAY, OCT. 18 (8:00-9:00 p.m. EDT). Episodes can be viewed the next day on demand and on Hulu.
Host Leslie Jones is joined by contestants (and their hometowns):
Lois Arbogast (Alberta, Canada) and Julia Warren (Vancouver, Wash.)
Chelsie Carlton (Winston-Salem, N.C.) and Jaleah Wilder (Raleigh, N.C.)
Ryan Pearcy (Little Rock, Ark.) and Drew Horton (St. Louis, Mo.)
Morgan Brown (Dallas, Texas) and Frankie Chapman (Grambling, La.)
Kelsey Hsing (Cupertino, Calif.) and Patrick Castillo (Philippines)
Sarah Lerma (Stockton, Calif.) and Chris Lerma (Capay, Calif.)
Back-to-back games follow three teams of two, clad in iconic colorful sweatshirts, as they compete against one another using their grocery shopping skills and knowledge of merchandise. Teams compete against each other for the chance to become the winning duo to play in the "Super Sweep," a race against the clock to find five products in order to win $100,000.
Taking "Supermarket Sweep" to primetime has made everything bigger and better while holding true to what made the original show so sensational. A whimsical grocery store was built from the ground up; big-ticket items were stocked on shelves for contestants to place in carts, and the final cash grand prize amount was amplified.
Hosted and executive produced by Emmy Award(R)-nominated comedienne and actress Leslie Jones, "Supermarket Sweep" is produced by Fremantle. Executive producers also include Alycia Rossiter, Wes Kauble, Jennifer Mullin and Hunter Seidman.
A TV parental guideline will be assigned to this episode at a later date.
