The fifth season of this NBC series ran for 20 episodes and was spread across the 2023-24 and 2024-25 TV seasons. The show is often used to fill in extra timeslots on the network’s schedule but is that enough to keep it on the air? Will The Wall be cancelled or renewed for season seven? Stay tuned.
A game show, The Wall TV series is hosted by Chris Hardwick. The competition series follows pairs of players as they pursue a cash prize of up to $12 million. When a team correctly answers a trivia question, a green ball drops from the top of the grid-like wall and bounces randomly toward the bottom of the four-story high structure. At the bottom of the wall, the ball will land in one of many slots, each with a value of $1 to $1 million. That value is added to the team’s total winnings. If the team misses a question, a red ball descends toward a random slot. The resulting amount is then deducted from the team’s total. Players need answers and lucky bounces to win a big cash prize in this game.
