Liza Koshy is Hosting Nickelodeon’s ‘Double Dare’ Reboot

Double Dare is BACK and better than ever this summer on Nickelodeon!

Bringing together new fans and the iconic game show’s millennial audience from the ‘90s, original series host Marc Summers returns to give color commentary on the challenges, lending his vast knowledge of the game and expertise to each episode, while digital content creator Liza Koshy will be the reboot’s official host.

Said Koshy, “This is a dream that I have been dreaming to live! From watching Double Dare to hosting it!?  I am ready for a summer of slime and nose picking.”

Said Summers, “I can’t think of many shows like Double Dare that have the ability to bond people together–those who grew up watching the original series can now pass along their love for this game show to today’s kids. It’s an honor to be a part of this reboot.”

Double Dare features two teams competing to win prizes by answering brain-bending trivia questions, completing messy physical stunts and ultimately facing the legendary obstacle course–the human hamster wheel, the classic gigantic mouth, the wringer, the iconic Double Dare nose and more.

The show originally premiered on Oct. 6, 1986, on Nickelodeon, and ran from 1986-1993, making it the network’s longest running game show. Marc Summers served as the show’s original host from 1986-1993. Shortly after its debut, Double Dare became one of the most popular original daily programs on cable television. The series went into syndication in 1988, and was later revived as Super Sloppy Double Dare in 1989.  The show also ran on broadcast television as Family Double Dare in 1988, followed by new versions on Nick, including Double Dare 2000.

Make sure to catch the world premiere of Double Dare on Monday, June 25th @ 8PM ET/PT on Nickelodeon.
