GSN, the cable channel formerly known as Game Show Network, has commenced production on a new American version of 12 Yard's Without Prejudice?, it has been confirmed.
Liza Turbuck hosted two series of the show, in which contestants competing for a cash prize open their lives for public scrutiny, for Channel 4 in the UK. The US version will be hosted by Dr. Robi Ludwig.
"We are so excited about this show and the climate for something this politically charged couldn't be more perfect," said Jamie Roberts, senior VP of programming at GSN. "Without Prejudice? is truly a ground breaking show -- a rare US TV first. It is inspired, modern entertainment that dares to frame electric debates of hot button issues such as sexism, immigration, religion and gun control into a reality game structure."
