After a successful reboot this year on TBS, \u201cWipeout\u201d is returning for another season of spectacular falls from giant red balls and is looking for Southern California residents to take on the giant obstacle course.<\/p>\n
The show is casting for teams of two to debut on its upcoming 20 episodes, who will take on the newly revamped three-stage giant obstacle course together. The duos can be male, female or a combination, and anyone can apply, so long as they’re over 18 years old and are available to shoot in Los Angeles for about three non-consecutive days during filming.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe duos can be friends, co-workers, relatives, neighbors,\u201d said Katy Wallin, the show\u2019s casting director. \u201cWe\u2019re just looking for dynamic, unforgettable personalities that really want to tackle this iconic course and the big balls.\u201d<\/p>\n
The former ABC show returned to television after a six-year hiatus this year, with its new home on TBS and few other changes. The four-stage obstacle course was slimmed down to three but revamped to be more challenging and the grand prize was cut in half, from $50,000 to $25,000. This year\u2019s grand prize is ambiguous but promises a \u201chuge cash prize,\u201d Wallin said.<\/p>\n
