Format

Global content company Keshet International today announces that it has teamed up with independent entertainment studio Youngest Media to produce a brand new shiny floor game show The Search.

Brilliantly simple and extremely addictive, The Search transforms the globally-popular word search puzzle into a fun-packed physical game – guaranteed to put contestants’ speed and knowledge - as well as their ability to work together - to the ultimate test. It’s not enough for them to know the answer - they must also find it on the massive wordsearch grid on the studio floor, all while the clock counts down and the board keeps shifting and changing.

Lively, exciting and visually-engaging, this studio game show combines all the fun of a word search with a dynamic, interactive experience and comes in 30 minute and 60 minute versions.

The Search is commissioned by Keshet 12 and Keshet International will be launching the format at MIPTV. Full details of Keshet International’s slate for MIPTV will be revealed shortly.

Keren Shahar, COO and President of Distribution, Keshet International, said: “The Search is a brand new take on the good old fun of the traditional globally-popular word search. It takes the popular pen and paper game and transforms it into a real-life game full of action for all the family. That, coupled with its strong visual element makes it a perfect fit for pretty much any channel. We’re delighted to be working with David and Lucas and the talented team at Youngest Media and look forward to launching the show at MIPTV.”

David Flynn, Co-Founder, Youngest Media, added: “It’s been an amazing experience bringing this idea to life with the team at Keshet. Like all the best game shows, The Search is simple but instantly engaging, and will appeal to all generations. We look forward to bringing this to an audience in Israel and around the world.”
