CBS is ready to celebrate the holidays by airing themed episodes of Lingo and Loteria Loca episodes. Both will air on Christmas Eve. RuPaul (Lingo) and Jaime Camil (Loteria Loca) host the game shows for the network.
Lingo last aired in March and the series has been renewed for a second season. Loteria Loca debuted in October and was pulled by CBS after four low-rated episodes. The show has likely been cancelled but the network hasn’t made it official.
