Almost certainly a consequence of the writers' strike, "Human vs Hamster" sounds like one of those rare TV abominations that has to be seen to be believed — you can watch "Human vs Hamster" online around the world and from anywhere with a VPN.
'Human vs Hamster' streaming details
All eight episodes of "Human vs Hamster" premiere on Thursday, November 21 in the United States.
• U.S. — Max
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN risk-free
Fronted by Sarah Sherman ("SNL") and Kyle Brandt ("Good Morning Football"), the eight-episode series sounds exactly like "Gladiators", only with hamsters instead of supersized athletes. Seriously. The hamsters even have cheesy names, such as Shadow, Astro, Lightning, Romeo, The Professor, and... Kevin.
Each episode — some of which, like "Rhode Island Firefighters and New Jersey Firefighters", follow an arbitrary theme, others, like "Trivia Kings and Volunteer Queens", not so much — sees a group of people who had presumably once harbored hopes of appearing on a different gameshow altogether, attempt to outperform the hamsters in a series of challenges.
These include mazes, obstacles, wheels and food challenges, and you can read on to see how you can watch "Human vs Hamster" online and from anywhere in the world.
