Craig Ferguson hosts ABC pilot "The Time It Takes"
« on: July 17, 2018, 08:16:00 PM »
Craig Ferguson looks to get back to the game show biz. He's been tapped to host a pilot for ABC called "The Time It Takes" ...

The pilot will film soon in the UK with Americans currently living in Britain as the contestants.

It's based on an upcoming series that's expected to premiere on BBC1 later this year. In the UK version, "the public" answers questions where the time limit is based on how long it takes to perform specific tasks, such as removing the plastic wrap of 10 compact discs or deflating and boxing an air mattress.

Especially with Ferguson, this might be a hoot. Sounds a little like Banzai, except without the incorrectness and with an actual game element. It has to be less mean-spirited than Ellen's deal.
