ABC Reviving ‘The Gong Show’ for 10 Episodes with Will Arnett Attached as Producer
One can only hope that one of the episodes features Arnett as G.O.B. Bluth doing his magic act.
40 years ago, America’s Got Talent wasn’t a thing along with the multitude of other reality competition shows that delve into the weird talents from all around the country. Back then, The Gong Show, which almost explicitly explored some of the weirdest acts they could find only to revel in hitting a gong to cut them short, was that weird talent showcase TV series.
Seems like a show that’s cut out for 2016, right?
ABC thinks so with a 10 episode order and none other than Will Arnett on board as an EP. There is no word as to who the host will be, but it wouldn’t be hard to imagine Arnett in that role as well.
