AXS TV ANNOUNCES WINTER PROGRAMMING SLATE, HEADLINED BY THE PREMIERE OF "CASH CAB MUSIC," A NEW GAME SHOW FORMAT CREATED EXCLUSIVELY FOR AXS TV DEBUTING JANUARY 8 AT 10 P.M.
Other Highlights Include:
John Catucci's Charming Culinary Odyssey 'You Gotta Eat Here!', New Episodes of AXS TV Fan-Favorite 'Hot Ones', and World-Class Wrestling Action from TNA & NJPW
LOS ANGELES (December 13, 2023) - AXS TV announced today its winter programming slate, packed with all-new original series, exciting acquisitions, and returning favorites, set to launch in January 2024.
The winter lineup is headlined by the premiere of the all-new original series Cash Cab Music, debuting with back-to-back episodes on Monday, January 8 at 10 p.m. ET. Created exclusively for AXS TV, the upcoming trivia series puts a fresh twist on a popular format, as host Adam Growe gives unsuspecting passengers the chance to win cash prizes by answering challenging questions spanning across the rich history of music. Cash Cab Music was produced for AXS TV by Castlewood Productions Inc.
Regarding the game play, contestants will start off by answering several questions that increase in value from $50 to $100, with the final round offering up questions that are worth $200 each. Those lucky enough to reach their destination with cash in hand will have the option to either take their winnings and leave, or risk it all by answering the "Cash Cab Karaoke" question - if they sing the correct answer they will double their winnings, but singing the wrong song will send them home empty-handed.
Other winter programming highlights include John Catucci's cross-country culinary adventure You Gotta Eat Here! - airing daily, Monday through Wednesday, at 8pE; as well as 36 all-new episodes of the viral celebrity sit-down series Hot Ones, airing Monday through Wednesday at 9pE. Then, tune in every Thursday for hard-hitting pro wrestling action from a pair of globally-renowned promotions with TNA Impact! (formerly known as IMPACT Wrestling) at 8pE, followed by New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) at 10pE.
"AXS TV has always been the premier destination for the absolute best in music programming, and we're taking that to the next level in 2024 - pushing the bounds of music-centric content with this slate of original and acquired series, many of which mark the Network's first foray into several new and exciting genres," said Katie Daryl, Vice President of Programming for AXS TV. "AXS TV's latest additions offer a little something for everyone, and we cannot wait to share them all with our viewers in the new year."

CASH CAB MUSIC - Mondays at 10pE & 10:30pE, Starting January 8
