In its first season, Claim to Fame was a middle-of-the-road performer when compared to ABC’s other summer series. The network renewed the series, likely hoping that the numbers would improve in round two. Will that happen? Will Claim to Fame be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.
A competition reality series, the Claim to Fame TV show is co-hosted by siblings Kevin and Frankie Jonas. The show looks at people who are on the fringe of celebrity, just out of the spotlight. This series challenges 12 celebrity relatives to step outside their famous family member’s shadow and to live together under one roof. They conceal their identity and lineage in a quest for their own fame and fortune. Over the course of a season, the relatives compete in challenges, form alliances, and play DNA detectives in hopes of avoiding elimination. Their goal is to win the coveted $100,000 prize and to stake their own “Claim to Fame”. The network promises that season two will be double-the-fun with supersized competition and drama.
