Celebrity Fight Club Optioned in Germany

TV Asahi and Youngest Media Group have optioned their new physical game-show format Celebrity Fight Club to Bildergarten Entertainment in Germany.

Based on TV Asahi’s classic hit Challengers on Fire, the format has been newly reimagined by the Youngest Media Group team in Los Angeles. The original Challengers on Fire ran for five years on TV Asahi, with over 190 episodes, and was top-rated in its time slot.

The new format plays on pop culture, with celebrity “rivals” going head-to-head in a bold, all-family, comedy-packed competition… driven by their social media followers. In every episode, two star players bring their biggest supporters to the studio to participate in a fun physical stunt show to see, once and for all, which celebrity has the “best” fans.
