Due to the actors and writers strikes, CBS is filling the fall schedule with lots of unscripted series like Buddy Games. The network needs content to fill its timeslots but that doesn’t mean shows like this will still have a home once the regular series start returning. Will Buddy Games be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.

A competition series, the Buddy Games TV show is based on an annual tradition of host Josh Duhamel and his friends. The game features six teams of four longtime friends who met at various stages of their lives. They come together at a beautiful lakeside location for a nostalgic summer camp adventure. They get the chance to play “buddy games” where they can try to relive their glory days and compete in an assortment of absurd physical and mental challenges in the outdoors — while bunking together in the same lake house. Friendships are rekindled and rivalries are reignited when these friends are challenged to prove which bonds are strong enough to withstand the crazy competition. The last team standing is crowned champion and awarded a trophy and a cash prize. .

Note: These are the final national ratings, including all live+same day viewing and DVR playback (through 3:00 AM). Early fast affiliate ratings (estimates) are indicated with an “*”. While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
