NBC has renewed its hit alternative series “Ellen’s Game of Games” for season 4. The news was revealed on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” where her audience members play the always messy “Danger Word” to celebrate.
“I’m so excited. I love this show so much,” said DeGeneres. “It makes me so happy. I love games. It combines all my favorite things: prizes and surprises. I’m sure you’ve seen it but if you haven’t, you’ve been missing out. We can’t wait to get started on the next round of episodes.”
Hosted and executive produced by DeGeneres with announcer Stephen “tWitch” Boss, “Ellen’s Game of Games” recently returned to NBC for its third season on Tuesday, Jan. 7 (8-9 p.m. ET/PT).
Every episode features DeGeneres’ mischievous personality along with a raucous roster of games, including favorites from her popular daytime show as well as new games such as “Mazed and Confused,” “Runaway Bride” and “Dirty Laundry.” Contestants in the show play different games over four rounds. The winner of each round advances to “Know or Go” and the winner of that round proceeds to “Hot Hands” for a chance to win a $100,000 cash prize.
