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.
