NBC, Mark Burnett Prep New Quiz Show

BURBANK, August 23: NBC
and Mark Burnett Productions have teamed up for Amne$ia, a new quiz show where contestants are challenged to
answer tough questions about their own life for money and prizes.

The series will premiere
on NBC later this season. Amne$ia was
created and will be executive produced by Emmy Award-winning producer Mark
Burnett (The Apprentice, Survivor, Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?) and producer Roy Bank (Are You Smarter Than A
5th Grader?). Burnett previously
collaborated with NBC on The Apprentice and The Contender.

"NBC and Mark Burnett
have always made a dynamic team and we're ready to introduce another
entertaining and unique alternative series," said Craig Plestis, the
executive VP of alternative programming, development and specials at NBC
Entertainment. “Amne$ia is a
relatable and nostalgic game show that's deceptively simple—and yet
exposes how shaky all of our fondest memories can be. With Mark's track record
and brand recognition, the show promises to be the latest in his string of
successful programs.”
