Go-Big Show is an American competition series that aired on TBS from January 7, 2021, to March 10, 2022. In contrast to other talent shows, Go-Big Show focuses on bigger scale performances featuring monster trucks, horse riding and large stage acts.[1][2] On each episode, performers compete for an opportunity to advance toward the season finale, with a grand prize of $100,000 at stake. The second season premiered on January 6, 2022.[3]

The show formerly featured Rosario Dawson, "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes, Jennifer Nettles and T-Pain as judges. It was hosted by Bert Kreischer.[1][4]

Cast

[edit]

Go-Big Show is hosted by Bert Kreischer (comedian). Judges include "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes (wrestler), Jennifer Nettles (singer) and Rosario Dawson (actress).[5] Snoop Dogg (rapper) was one of the four judges during season one. However, in August 2021, it was announced that T-Pain (rapper) would replace him for season two.[6] Previously, DJ Khaled was planned to join the show.[7]

Format

[edit]

On each of the six qualifier episodes, three pairs of acts perform for the judges. Each act is scored on a scale of 1 to 100 (using levers/throttles connected to a 23-foot "Power Tower" equipped with 4,000 LED lights).[8] The higher-scoring act of the pair advances to the semifinals. If both acts in a match-up receive the same score, a coin toss is used to decide the winner.[citation needed]

For each of the three episodes in the semifinals, two heats of three acts each perform and are scored as in the preliminaries. The high scorers from the respective heats advance to a vote by the judges to determine which act will move on to the finals. Once the semifinals are complete, the judges select one of the three acts eliminated by their votes to advance as a "wild card".[citation needed]

The finale consists of three rounds, with each act being scored as in previous episodes. Two acts face off in the first round, and the low scorer is eliminated. In each of the following rounds, one new act performs and must outscore the winner of the previous round in order to eliminate them and advance. The winner of the third round receives the $100,000 grand prize.[9]

Season 1 overview (2021)

[edit]

Each act is scored on a scale of 1 to 100, calculated as an average of the scores given by the individual judges. During the Qualifier Rounds, performers go head-to-head, and the act that receives the highest combined score moves on to the next round.

Production

[edit]

The show is filmed at the Macon Coliseum in Macon, Georgia,[1] via Propagate and Boat Rocker Media's Matador Content. Production for the 10-episode hour-long second season began in August 2021.[38]

Ratings and reviews

[edit]

The debut episode drew a million viewers[39] and was the best unscripted series launch by TBS in three years.[40] Viewership declined slightly each week during the first season.[41][42] However, due to its success, the series was renewed for a second season.[43]

Common Sense Media reported it is a "mixed-bag of talent" featuring profanity and mild violence meant for mature audiences, along with family-friendly performances. The positive impact on younger viewers is the discussion of safety and the unique talents of the performers.[44]
