Several movies are based on books, but did you know the same could be said for plenty of TV shows as well? This week's Seriesly Tuesday is highlighting three.
Hollywood loves to draw inspiration from several things, ranging from books to real life events. But this week's Seriesly Tuesday focuses on a different inspiration, namely blockbuster movies.
Do you have what it takes to survive in the unforgiving climate of deep Siberia only using the tools on your back? Can you find food in a forest in the dead of winter, eating bugs and bark if you need to, while fending off attacks from wild animals? Are you willing to do put on a bodycam and do whatever it takes to beat out your competitors for the ultimate prize of $1.6 million? Then let the games begin! Dozens of contestants will compete in a harsh struggle for cold hard cash deep in the Siberian wilderness – welcome to the real-life Russian Hunger Games! This summer, the reality-TV show ‘Games 2: Winter’ will hit screens in Russia, with millions of spectators set to follow 30 brave participants in a no-holds-barred survival contest staged in the Siberian wilderness as over 2,000 cameras will follow the contestants and live broadcast their every move 24/7. Contestants paid $150,000 to participate in the show and signed waivers exonerating the organizers from responsibility in case of rape or even murder. They passed a mental and physical exam and will be dropped off in the bear-infested taiga forest in July 2017 to fend for themselves until next spring. The only way that participants will be able to escape the forest is by hitting a panic button, which will call a helicopter to their rescue. However, by doing so, they immediately forfeit their chance to win. We hope that the contestants have a safe and exciting Games and wish that the odds will be ever in their favor.
With summer coming to an end it's time to look ahead, with this week's Seriesly Tuesday highlighting three upcoming fall series premieres.
Some of the best TV series out there have an air of mystery surrounding them, which is why this week's Seriesly Tuesday highlights three of them.
