Magnolia Network's Family-Friendly Content Slate Sets Fall Streaming Premiere Dates On Max

"Roller Jam" to Premiere October 10, Followed by "Human vs. Hamster" on November 21 and "Second Chance Stage" on Thanksgiving Day

WACO, TX (August 15, 2024) - Magnolia Network today announced the streaming premiere dates of its all-new slate of family-friendly unscripted programming coming to Max. Executive produced by Chip and Joanna Gaines, the new series set to premiere this fall on Max include Roller Jam (Oct. 10), Human vs. Hamster (Nov. 21) and Second Chance Stage (Nov. 28, Thanksgiving Day).

Roller Jam - Thursday, October 10

One-episode weekly drop on Max; finale premieres Nov. 14

Produced by Nikki Boella (Americas Got Talent; Rhythm + Flow) and Brian Lando (A Very Brady Renovation), Roller Jam is a six-episode competition series featuring the top roller-skating crews in the country dancing through the decades for a chance to win a $150,000 cash prize and a $10,000 donation to their local rink. Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum singer/songwriter and actress Jordin Sparks will host, with two-time U.S. Olympian and national figure skating champion Johnny Weir and roller-skating legend Terrell Ferguson serving as judges of the first-ever nationwide roller dancing competition on television. Each episode, skate teams must create all-new routines to perform for Johnny, Terrell and a celebrity guest judge in front of a live audience with only one chosen in the end as the ultimate roller dancing team in the country.

Human vs. Hamsters - Thursday, November 21

Full season drop on Max

Produced by A. Smith and Co. (American Ninja Warrior; Floor is Lava), Human vs. Hamster is a cheeky eight-episode competition series where the world's most remarkable pet hamsters go toe-to-toe with teams of humans in scaled challenges that will test their speed, strength, agility - and, of course, their eating prowess - all for the sake of answering the burning question: "Which species is superior, humans or hamsters?" The team who wins the most challenges against the hamsters moves on to an epic obstacle course - The Cage - where they must escape before the hamsters to win. Saturday Night Live cast member, comedian and actress Sarah Sherman will host with football commentator Kyle Brandt, plus television personality Brian Balthazar as the resident hamster enthusiast.

Second Chance Stage - Thursday, November 28

Two-episode weekly drop on Max; finale premieres Dec. 19

Filmed in Kansas City, Second Chance Stage is an eight-episode talent competition series produced by Sony Pictures Television's The Intellectual Property Corporation (Selena + Restaurant; We're Here; The Climb) that offers contestants who have pushed their dreams aside for years, even decades, a second chance at their big break. With performances ranging from dancing to singing to stand-up comedy and more, one winner will receive a $100,000 cash prize in front of an audience full of talent scouts, agents and producers looking for the next big star. Judges include country music superstar Martina McBride, acclaimed stage and screen actor Taye Diggs and Saturday Night Live cast member, comedian and actress Heidi Gardner with sports broadcaster and New York Times bestselling author Emmanuel Acho tapped to host.
