Ryan Seacrest Continues to Expand His Universe

Ryan Seacrest is obviously vying for the crown of King of All Media and has taken a step closer to achieving his goal of world domination by making a deal with Nickelodeon. Ryan Seacrest Productions and Nickelodeon have set up the game show Go Viral (that’s just the working title) for a 40 episode run. The new half-hour series, which will feature kids and viral videos, will go into production in early 2014.
 
Nickelodeon is aiming for a summer 2014 premiere.
 
“We’re excited to be working with Ryan Seacrest Productions on this show that captures pop culture in an exciting new way for kids,” said Russell Hicks, Nickelodeon’s President of Content Development and Production. “Nickelodeon has an undeniable track record in producing hit game shows and we are adapting the format to reflect the way kids consume content today.”
 
“Everyone at RSP worked hard to develop a new game show that showcases the way kids consume entertainment today,” said Ryan Seacrest Productions CEO Adam Sher. “It’s our first series with Nickelodeon, and we’re excited to work with their team, and contribute to their legacy of making groundbreaking kids programming.”
 
The Plot:
 
The studio-based game show features kid contestants as they compete in elimination challenges revolving around viral videos. Each round will test kids on these laugh-out-loud videos – from predicting outcomes to guessing their popularity as voted by the studio audience.
