FOX’S ‘MENTAL SAMURAI’ HOSTED BY ROB LOWE RENEWED FOR SEASON 2

Competition series “Mental Samurai” has been renewed for a second season. The second season will premiere Wednesday, April 22 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. Rob Lowe returns as host.

“Mental Samurai” combines game shows, sporting events, and thrill rides, in which everyday people from across the country battle each other and the clock, answering a wide variety of fun and interactive questions about topics ranging from the Hall of Presidents to Hall & Oates. If that wasn’t enough, players must tackle these difficult questions while being whipped around the arena strapped into Ava, a high-speed capsule and robotic arm capable of twisting and turning a full 360 degrees! The stakes have never been higher this season, as players will earn money with each correct answer, but with even one mistake, the ride comes to a screeching halt. In the end, the player who correctly answers the most questions the fastest will enter the Circle of Samurai for a chance to win up to $100,000 and return the next night to face a new group of colorful competitors vying to win the title of “Mental Samurai.”
