TBS takes prank TV to a whole new level with a re-imagined version of The Joe Schmo Show premiering next year, it was announced today by Kathleen Finch, Chairman and Chief Content Officer, US Networks Group, Warner Bros. Discovery, during the company's 2023 Upfront presentation at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Hosted by five-time Emmy Award nominee, Cat Deeley, this show within a show takes aim at the absurdity of reality TV by making a regular guy believe he is competing on a reality show, when he is in fact, surrounded by a cast of highly skilled improv comedians. Reality TV has come a long way since 2003 when the original Joe Schmo Show was watched by more than 44 million viewers. This new take on the iconic format promises to be even bigger, wilder, and more mind-blowing.

The Max Original docuseries Downey's Dream Cars debuts with two episodes Thursday, June 22 on Max, with two new episodes debuting each Thursday leading up to the final two episodes on July 6.
