Craig Ferguson

FremantleMedia North America and Debmar-Mercury, Lionsgate's television distribution and syndication company, have joined forces to offer Celebrity Name Game. The fast-paced game show, in which celebrities team with contestants to identify famous names, including actors, singers, athletes, pop culture figures, politicians and even cartoon characters, is scheduled for a fall 2014 nationally syndicated launch with The Late, Late Show's Craig Ferguson hosting. Courteney Cox and David Arquette's Coquette Productions (Cougar Town) developed the half-hour strip based on the board game Identity Crisis with Scott St. John (Deal or No Deal), who will also serve as showrunner. Stay with us for continued updates, especially during NATPE in January.
