Talpa Studios' hit game show The Quiz with Balls is set to premiere on Canal 13 in Argentina, produced at Talpa's local hub operated by Kuarzo Entertainment. Guido Kaczka, known for hosting The Floor, will lead the show, which combines trivia with physical challenges.

Following its success in the Netherlands, the U.S., Germany, and Spain, The Quiz with Balls continues its global expansion. Sebastian van Barneveld (Talpa Studios) highlights its strong international performance: his format was a breakout surprise hit for SBS6 in the Netherlands in 2023, and in the USA it was FOX’s most-watched non-scripted show this past summer. After Germany, Spain and the USA, the show continues to travel. We are excited for Argentinian viewers to experience this dynamic and engaging show”, while Martín Kweller (Kuarzo Entertainment) emphasizes their commitment to innovative formats: We are honored to be the first production hub in America for such an innovative format as The Quiz with Balls. Our Argentinian production hub has already proven its versatility and success with the recording of both the Uruguayan and Argentinian versions of the hit show The Floor. Our strategic partnership with Talpa Studios, one of the leading global format creators, began with the success of The Floor and continues to strengthen our commitment to creativity and excellence in the entertainment industry. We are thrilled to bring this exciting format to Canal 13 and confident it will captivate the Argentine audience with its energy, dynamism, and originality."

The show features five contestants answering quiz questions while standing on a platform over a pool. With each round, incorrect answers trigger giant rolling balls that can knock players into the water. The final question offers a significant cash prize, making strategy and teamwork crucial.

Airing daily on Canal 13, the show’s launch date will be announced soon.
