Today’s news that ‘Fear Factor’ will return to NBC after five years off the air came as a bit of a surprise — guess the new higher-ups at the network were fans back in the day.
But there was very little information out there to report on, other than the fact that NBC and production company Endemol USA were ready to start doing casting calls.
We had a lot of questions: What will the show look like now? Are there new challenges in store? Will host Joe Rogan return? And when will this new season premiere?
So we turned to executive producer Matt Kunitz to get the scoop. Before dishing about all of that and more — including ‘Idol,’ ‘The Voice,’ ‘Wipeout’ and his new upcoming ABC show ‘101 Ways to Leave a Game Show’ — Kunitz giddily started the chat by saying, “I think you’re the first person in six years that I’ve actually introduced myself to as Matt Kunitz from ‘Fear Factor.’ [Laughs] It’s exciting!”
