After months of prep work and production, FOX and FailArmy are finally releasing their newest TV project. World’s Funniest Fails, inspired by FailArmy’s YouTube channel, will make its debut on the FOX network on January 16, 2015.
The one-hour series hosted by actor Terry Crews will feature popular videos from around the world which are full of blundering and awkward mistakes (thanks to FailArmy’s channel owner Jukin Media, a company which specializes in viral clips). A panel of guest judges will determine which video deserves the title of “worst fail” each week. YouTube’s Mamrie Hart is set to appear as one of the guest judges, as are comedians like Brian Posehn (The Sarah Silverman Program) and Greg Proops (Whose Line Is It Anyway?).
With the help of Jukin and Dick Clark Productions, FailArmy shipped its potential series idea to television networks starting in April 2014. FOX ordered the then-unnamed World’s Funniest Fails program a few months later in November. And if FailArmy’s 6.5+ million subscribers are any indication, the TV iteration of the channel’s renowned fail programming could do very well for itself.
Tune in to FOX on January 16 at 8 PM EST to catch the premiere of World’s Funniest Fails. In the meantime, you can enjoy some mini-mishaps in the show’s trailer.
