Game shows have become a staple of ABC‘s summer schedule but this year, due to COVID-19, the network has added them to the fall schedule. How will the ratings be affected by this change? Will Card Sharks be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.
A game show revival, the Card Sharks TV series is hosted by Joel McHale. Based on the card game Acey Deucey, two players face off on the series, each hoping to eliminate the other, with the goal of claiming a $10,000 cash prize and a chance for even bigger winnings. The winning contestant bets their prize on properly predicting the final seven cards of the game. The player’s final prize is the amount of money remaining in the bank after all the predictions have been made and the results are revealed.
