The game show The 1% Club is getting a second season — and a bit of an overhaul.
For starters, the show will be exclusive to Fox for season two, after season one ran on both the broadcast network and Amazon’s Prime Video streaming platform. The show will also have a new host, with Joel McHale taking over from Patton Oswalt.
The 1% Club will be McHale’s third Fox show — he also stars in the network’s comedy Animal Control and hosts the oddball cooking competition Crime Scene Kitchen.
“Joel’s outstanding comedic timing and hosting charm already make him a standout talent here at Fox, and now — building on The 1% Club’s strong first year on the network — we’re bringing his unrivaled energy, irreverence and charisma to season two,” said Fox Television Network president Michael Thorn in a statement. “We look forward to expanding on our successful relationship with Joel and continuing our partnership with the incredible production teams at BBC Studios and Magnum.”
Added McHale, “I am 1,000,000% excited to be partnering with Fox to host The 1% Club. I absolutely love the show and love the game play to the 10𝑥 and guarantee my hair, makeup, and wardrobe will look great at least 68% of the time.”
The 1% Club is based on a British game show. Prime Video ordered the show in October 2023, and Fox came on board last year, airing most episodes a day before they streamed on Prime Video.
Ryan O’Dowd and Krystal Whitney executive produce the show for BBC Studios Los Angeles Productions along with and Dean Nabarro and Andy Auerbach for Magnum Media. Wes Kauble is the showrunner.
McHale is repped by UTA, Ziffren Brittenham and Johnson Shapiro.
