ADDITIONAL NOTES: completed airing its second season on 7/30/23; has yet to be renewed for a third season
DESCRIPTION: (from TBS's web site, May 2023) More games, more winners - and more Wade. “The Cube” follows contestant pairs who must demonstrate skill, nerve and determination as they endure seemingly simple physical and mental tasks – all while confined in ‘The Cube,’ an intimidating glass box with its own mind and attitude, in the hope of winning a major cash prize. Working on their own or as a team, each pair has nine lives to complete seven games that are worth an increasing amount of money as they inch closer to taking home the $250,000 jackpot. New this season, Trial Run has been added as a third assist for contestants to unlock when they reach the $50,000 game. It’s a free practice attempt at a game - no prize for winning, no penalty for losing - but the big decision comes afterwards when they must decide to walk away or play!
