Get
your
gag
reflexes
ready
because
Fear
Factor
is
back.
The
intense
reality
competition
series
is
returning
to
TV
later
this
year,
Fox
announced
May
12.
However,
nearly
25
years
after
the
show
first
premiered
on
NBC,
the
challenges
come
with
a
surprising
twist.
“The
iconic
reality
competition
Fear
Factor
is
coming
back
bigger,
bolder
and
more
daring,”
Fox
revealed
in
a
press
release. “Dropped
into
an
unforgiving,
remote
location,
a
group
of
strangers
will
live
together
under
one
roof,
and
face
mind-blowing
stunts,
harrowing
challenges
and
a
twisted
game
of
social
strategy
where
trust
is
fleeting—and
fear
is
a
weapon.”
The
revival,
currently
titled Fear
Factor:
The
Next
Chapter,
will
debut
during
the
2025-2026
television
season.
Fear
Factor
first
debuted
on
NBC
in
2001
and
was
hosted
by
Joe
Rogan
until
it
went
off
the
air
in
2006.
The
show’s
adrenaline-pumping
obstacles
included
major
stunts,
dangerous
games
and
stomach-turning
challenges
in
which
players
had
to
eat
disgusting
bug
and
animal
parts
in
an
attempt
to
win
the
$50,000
cash
prize.
