August 14, 2018 (Santa Monica, CA) – Game Show Network, the leader in game shows and competitive entertainment, announced today its original hit series AMERICA SAYS, hosted by John Michael Higgins, will return for a 95-episode second season. The announcement comes on the heels of a successful premiere season, which has seen the show build over its lead-in by +26%, while also performing over +40% above YTD time period average among our core W25-54 demo.
“I can’t wait to challenge a whole new season of contestants with fill-in-the-blank questions that I personally guess wrong every single time,” said John Michael Higgins. “I have so much fun with ‘America Says’ and this season will be a blast!”
AMERICA SAYS is a fast-paced studio game show where two teams of friends and family face off to guess America’s responses to fill-in-the-blank survey questions covering every topic under the sun. They’ll have to be quick when trying to think of what America says, as time is always ticking and the team with the most money banked after three rounds will head to a bonus round to see if they can win up to $15,000.
Recognized for his iconic roles in films like “Pitch Perfect,” “The Break-Up” and “Best In Show”, Higgins is also known for providing voices for characters in popular animated series “Bob’s Burgers” and Nickelodeon’s “The Legend of Korra.”
AMERICA SAYS is based on a format by Keller/Noll. Tara Long and Mark Herwick of Entertainment One (eOne) and Dave Noll and Cleve Keller of Keller/Noll serve as executive producers. John Quinn serves as executive producer.

What do you think? Have you seen America Says? Will you watch season two?
When will the show start again in 2020?
The director of America Says should be fired. He/she does not stay zoomed in on the board until all the blanks are answered. One cannot see the last blank or two answers sitting 15-20 feet away from the TV when the view is fully zoomed out. We see enough of JMH and the contestants during the show, stay focused on the board until all the blanks are answered. This is a pet peeve of mine, and the reason I don’t like watching the show/ All of the other game shows seem to do a better job of this.
Love this show. So glad it is picked up for a second season
America Says is terrible. From the “Low Rent” contestants to the “Not a Comedian” Host, I will not watch – It’s like scratching a blackboard!
The Princess Leias and Golden Girls were the same team on two separate episodes. Not Fair! No explanation of any error that would have called for a second invite. What’s up with that?
LOVE THE SHOW!!!! MUCH better than Family Feud!
I love this show but so far no new ones..just repeats. Anxious to see some new ones.
Wife, 35 yr old daughter, & wife love this show!!! Glad it’s been renewed, but can’t find season 2 beginning date anywhere? When does 2 begin?
This show is fun, fast paced and plenty of actual game playing per show. GSN made a great call by showing a repeat episode immediately following each new one. This let us catch up on all the missed shows before discovering America Says. Now that we’re caught up, I’m gonna miss getting my one hour daily dose of John Michael Higgins.
Best game show ever! Thrilled about season two!
Can’t wait for 2nd season…. Miss it!
Yes!!!! Love this show. So happy it’s been renewed.
I will be watching
