What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the ABC television network, The Chase TV series is hosted by Sara Haines. The game show is a fast-paced competition where three competitors must pit their wits and face off against the Chaser, a ruthless quiz genius who is determined to stop them from winning cash prizes. Each episode, contestants are challenged to think faster than they ever thought possible, to answer up to 166 questions across all topics. Trivia masters James Holzhauer, Ken Jennings, and Brad Rutter take turns serving as the Chaser.

The Chase has been renewed for a second season which will debut June 6, 2021. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will ABC cancel or renew The Chase for season two? The show seems relatively inexpensive to produce and the title has some cache with viewers so, I’m leaning toward a renewal. That being said, the network has a lot of game shows right now. I wouldn’t be surprised if some of them get cut once the pandemic subsides. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

I love Ken Jennings show The Chase
My favorite now. They better not cancel it. I would be so disappointed.
I loved the old show. I loved the host and I love the Beast. In the UK, there are several Chasers, a fun host and assistant host. A lot of fun right around Happy Hour. I loved Brooke Burns. Sara does a great job on The View, but doesn’t have the charisma for this game show. Brooke supported the players well and could hold her own with the Beast.
I hope they renew it my favorite show
This is the only show on local TV that I look forward to watching. I can’t believe that someone is considering canceling it. Please, I’m begging you, don’t cancel it.
I thought the show was great. I hope it comes back on

I would like it to be renewed. I think they should replace the host with Brooke Burns the host of the previous US The Chase. I found her very engaging with the Chasers as well as the contestants.
One of the best shows on Network TV… and good shows are so-o rare. Please renew the Chase. I’ve already turned a lot of people onto it, they love it. Give this show time to be discovered, its right up there 2nd only to Jeopardy. The 3 pros and Sara are all excellent in their roles.
Please bring it back, I find it very interesting
I would love to see the chase renewed. At first I didn’t like it. But it grew on me!!
I hope The Chase continues. I really enjoy the show.
So happy to see this in the U.S.! Became familiar with it when visiting Australia. Sara talks to slow though as far as taking too much time from contestants! And I agree with another comment in how the chaser answers after the answer is given! How do we know that is the actual answer he chose! I don’t think it is done that way in the non-U.S. version. Change that and the host and you have a winning show for a long time- at least for me- and I am out of the demographic you think you aimed for-I’ m… Read more »
Really like the show and Sara is a terrific host.
Like the chase.I like it better than the old version.It is better with three rotating chasers and the money is bigger.
The Chase seems likely for renewal. As of 2/11/21, host Sara Haines told watchers of The View (which she co-hosts), that they could go to the The Chase’s website to be a contestant, and since I believe that all of this season’s eps have already been shot.. odds are it will be back for Season 2.
Only watched 1st one with Ken, & 1/2 of the one with James.. silly, they answer after the contestant & where’s the proof of their answers?? .. no interest in this show. 🙁
Doesn’t interest me.
