What’s This TV Show About?
A physical competition series airing on the FOX television network, the Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test TV show is based on a British format. In the series, 16 household names are dropped in the desert with each intent on surviving some of the harshest, most grueling challenges from the playbook of the actual Special Forces selection process. The contestants quickly learn the meaning of “no guts, no glory” – and no glam – as they try to survive demanding training exercises. They are led by Directing Staff (DS) agents Rudy Reyes, Mark “Billy” Billingham, Jason “Foxy” Fox, and Remi Adeleke, an elite team of ex-special forces operatives. The participants are Danny Amendola, Mel B, Hannah Brown, Tyler Florence, Kate Gosselin, Dwight Howard, Montell Jordan, Gus Kenworthy, Nastia Liukin, Carli Lloyd, Beverley Mitchell, Kenya Moore, Mike Piazza, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Anthony Scaramucci, and Jamie Lynn Spears.
Season One Ratings
The first season of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test averaged a 0.35 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.82 million viewers. 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. Other economic factors can be involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled. Find out how Special Forces stacks up against other FOX TV shows.
Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test has been renewed for a second season which will debut on September 25, 2023. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will FOX cancel or renew Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test for season two? The network could use a new unscripted series (one that doesn’t star Gordon Ramsay), and this one got off to a good start. The numbers have been consistent week-to-week, so I think there’s a good chance it will be renewed. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

Thank you to all the military personnel for what you do for us each and every day to keep us all safe, especially the Special Forces! You are amazing for what you do!
Double ditto, Carol Ann Hartman. Please renew this series. There’s a lot of reality show junk out there and this rises above. It actually serves a purpose, I know I learned a little about myself just watching it
Please, please, please make Special Forces a TV regular! I don’t enjoy other reality shows, but this demonstrates how our attitudes and true character carries us thru when we really want to achieve any goa! It’s not about beauty, money, fashion or fake people; it’s about true grit making us successful!
Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 2
My husband and I really enjoyed watching this TV program. We would like to see another season. Would their be the same challenges or different ones, who knows. Please add a 2nd season?
Thank You
Special Forces was one of the best reality shows I’ve seen. Please keep it going. Also Beyond The Edge was great.
Please renew the special forces. It is one of the best shows I have ever seen. It shows great humanity and devotion. This season ended too soon. This show should and needs to be renewed for decades to come!
Best show on Television, nothing even comes close. People are sick of watching the crap that most TV series put out there. I believe if it was advertised better before it started more people would watch it and would love it. I talked with a lot of my friends and they hadn’t even heard of it.
Please do another season. Get it on social media also. Thank you for season one.
Loved it!! Many more seasons please.
renew the special forces show. It’s a breath of fresh air on the fox network and it’s as real as can be. It’s a good show and a good job of showing what the special forces has to undergo for training.
I would love to see this series continue but I think the “surprise factor” will be lost on any additional celebrities brought into the show. They will know what to expect (in a way) unless they start filming the next season right away and can get some people who haven’t seen or heard about it.
I think they’d be able to rework it every season so contestants are surprised. There are way more things to learn about the military, mentally, physically and emotionally, then was covered in one season. Saying that, it would take decades to show all the training, etc.
It doesn’t matter if a celebrity has already heard about this show. Can they dig deep? Can they overcome and complete the challenges? What’s going to make it interesting is how each new person handles the challenges whether they’re the same or different.
Great show! Hope it’s continued.
