Barmageddon is an American television game show created and produced by Blake Shelton, Emmy Award winning producer Lee Metzger, and Carson Daly, with Nikki Garcia serving as the host. The show premiered on December 5, 2022, on the USA Network.[1]

Production

On May 12, 2022, it was confirmed that award winning country singer Blake Shelton and television host Carson Daly would start their own game show named Barmageddon on the USA Network, with WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella serving as the host (her name was later changed to Nikki Garcia after her WWE contract expired in March 2023). The show takes place at Ole Red in Nashville, one of the chain bars owned by Shelton.[2] On March 1, 2023, USA Network renewed the series for a second season.[3]

Gameplay

In a bar-themed game show, two celebrities compete against each other in five pub games, where the winner of the cash prize would choose a viral Internet sensation, where each has chosen to support.[4]
