Raid the Cage has a return date. Season two will resume on May 28, with viewers seeing five new episodes. Damon Wayans Jr., from the recently canceled Poppa’s House, hosts the CBS game show. The series has not yet been renewed for season three.
CBS revealed more about the series’ return in a press release.
“Actor and comedian Damon Wayans Jr. hosts and executive produces the action-packed game show where strategy, teamwork and nerve are key to winning big every Wednesday night. In the series, co-hosted by Emmy winner Jeannie Mai, two teams of two face off to grab-and-go prizes from the “cage” before their time runs out and the doors close. Correctly answering trivia questions adds seconds to the clock, giving teammates more time to grab prizes ranging from cool trips to electronics and even a new car! After three lively rounds, the team that banks the highest total dollar value in prizes wins the game, keeps what they grabbed and plays the final round to try and “beat the cage” for an even bigger cash prize.
