Mexico’s TV Azteca remakes Banijay gameshow format ‘Don’t’

Don’t

TV Azteca in Mexico has ordered a local version of Banijay’s gameshow format Don’t.

The local version – to be known as Don’t: No Lo Hagas – will be produced by Banijay’s Mexico-based EndemolShine Boomdog, with production starting this week.

It will be hosted by presenter and comedian Adal Ramones, and is expected to launch in September on Azteca Uno.

The format, which was launched in the US on ABC in June, is a physical comedy gameshow where contestants are tested through physical games that require them to not complete certain tasks.

Elliott Chalkely, VP of sales at Banijay Rights, which sells the format globally, said: “The fun-loving mischievous tone of Don’t is just the tonic international audiences need right now.”
