TelevisaUnivision & Endemol Shine partner for quiz format ‘Are You For Real?’
Mexican broadcaster Televisa has commissioned a new guessing game format from Endemol Shine Boomdog.
Are You For Real? (aka Cuál es el Bueno?) is a new format developed by Endemol Shine Boomdog, Endemol Shine Italy and the network’s parent company TelevisaUnivision.
The show sees three contestants take to the stage with a supposed talent, job, or characteristic. However, only one individual is telling the truth, and it is up to three famous guests to figure out.
Known as the ‘fake hunters’, the celebrities, through questions and intuition, must put their pride, intelligence, and audacity on the line as they decide who is telling the truth and who is a master of deception. Representing different sections of the studio audience, the celebrity is aiming to collect as many points as possible by correctly identifying the person telling the truth.
A person sitting within the winning ‘fake hunter’s’ section will then be in with a chance of winning the huge sum of 50,000 pesos ($2,446).
Amongst those ready to sort the truths from the lies are actors Andrea Legarreta, Paul Stanley, Erika Buenfil, and Ricardo Margaleff, as well as comedian Mau Nieto, and model and presenter Tania Rincón.
Alejandro Rincón, CEO of Endemol Shine Boomdog, said: “We are excited to continue our successful partnership with Televisa with our latest joint production effort, Are You For Real? It’s truly the perfect show for the entire family to enjoy together this summer and find out who is real and who is not.”
