Next week NBC will premiere their new summer series that puts families on the road in a competition that will take them across the country. From the description of the series, it sounds like The Amazing Race except the whole thing is taking place in the U.S. and on the road.
In Great American Road Trip, which runs for eight episodes, seven families will hit the road to journey cross country to complete in a “medley of humorous challenges” in the hopes of avoiding elimination.
Here’s part of NBC’s description for the series:
“These comical, clever challenges are set against iconic American backdrops like the majestic Grand Canyon and the regal Washington Monument. Along the way, our families and our viewers will also discover quirky American landmarks ranging from the World's Largest Chair to a sneaker the size of a car. Although family fun is the centerpiece of the show, the competition is real and one family will be eliminated each week based on their performance in the challenges. Ultimately, only one family will return home with a dream prize that perfectly complements their extraordinary and memorable summer vacation.”
Great American Road Trip premieres Tuesday, July 7 at 8:00 p.m. ET on NBC.
