Phil Keoghan and The Amazing Race have had a long and successful run on CBS. How will Keoghan’s new series, Tough As Nails do in the ratings? Will Tough As Nails be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.
A reality competition, the Tough As Nails TV show is hosted by Phil Keoghan. It celebrates everyday Americans who roll up their sleeves and don’t think twice about working long hard hours and getting their hands dirty, in order to keep their country running. In the series, competitors consider the calluses on their hands a badge of honor and are tested for their strength, endurance, life skills and, most importantly, mental toughness in challenges that take place at real-world job sites. At the end of the season, the winning individual contestant will be crowned as the Tough as Nails champion and will win a Ford Super Duty truck and a $200,000 cash prize.

LOVE THE SHOW !!!
I think Phil Keoghan has another winner here. Once again, casting is everything. Some interesting competitors. Hate some, love others.
Doesn’t hurt that Phil’s a very charismatic host — giving Jeff Probst some competition in that area.
Let Keoghan study the ratings. I want to know who did best in the competition.
