Contestant­s leave their fortune up to fate in ‘The Wall’

- By Caroline Collacutt TV Media

The wishing wall: The wall giveth, and the wall taketh away. Count your lucky stars, as all-new episodes of the high-risk, high-reward game show “The Wall” premiere, starting Friday, Nov. 3, on NBC.

“The rules are simple,” NBC describes. “Get a question correct and a green ball will fall down the wall and add the value of the slot to the players’ winning total. Miss a question and an ominous red ball will fall and deduct the value from the teams’ total.teammates have to work together to build a huge cash prize.”

“However, the towering wall is not easily conquered.wildly unpredicta­ble, the wall is capable of millions of different outcomes.as the game progresses, the stakes get even higher when one player is sent into an isolation room behind the wall. It is here where the pairs’ faith in each other will be tested as they play the remainder of the game without any communicat­ion.”

Needless to say, skill can only take you so far. Players make it to the wall and brave that fateful drop, but once they do, any chance of winning is no longer in their hands.the wall has the final say.

Led by returning comedian, actor and host Chris Hardwick (“@midnight”), the upcoming season promises a record-breaking cash prize and a gamechangi­ng twist, as a brand-new segment — The Superdrop, in which all seven balls rain down in a waterfall drop — allows contestant­s the chance to win up to $13 million each night.

Produced by NBA superstar Lebron James (“Space Jam: A New Legacy,” 2021), a new season of “The Wall” begins Friday, Nov. 3, on NBC.
