LET'S WAKEY WAKEY

(c) NTV

Genre Game Show
 

Nobody likes to wake up in the morning, especially to something unexpected…

What would you do if you suddenly woke up with a pie thrown in your face, then before you have time to wake up and figure out what is going on, be given a task to complete in 20 seconds?

Let’s Wakey Wakey is a new type of game show combining the elements of surprise and reality with physical and mental challenges.

Unsuspecting contestants are woken up early in the morning in an unusual method by a perfect stranger and given a task to complete. Prize money is at stake…the faster the task is completed, the larger the prize!

 Some examples of “wake-up” methods are:

- an opera singer singing live next to your bed 

- a huge dog set loose in your room

- a full raw octopus thrown on your face

- a pro wrestler holding you to the bed

 Examples of tasks are:

- eating a full slice of hot pizza

- repeating a tongue-twister

- threading a needle

- answering first-grade math questions

….all simple tasks, but not so easy when you are half-asleep and time is ticking away!

Let’s Wakey Wakey is a flexible format which works as a stand-alone 30 minute show or a segment incorporated into a larger show. Can be easily adapted to any timeslot, or any production budget.
