Mario Lopez To Host ‘Blank Slate’ On Game Show Network

Based on the board game by USAopoly and in the comedic game show format, Blank Slate is a game show where thinking alike, in the form of matching answers to clever fill-in-the blank questions, can win you big bucks.

It will be hosted by Mario Lopez and premiere on Monday, Jan. 8, on Game Show Network and air weeknights at 6 p.m.

Each team of two friends will be paired with a comedian guest, and the teams accumulate points by matching their teammates, with a bonus if any player matches America’s top answer. The celebrities switch teams in round two, and in round three the trailing team picks the comedian partner they believe will help them win. The winning team moves on to the bonus round where they can pick a comedian to match on each question. If the team gets three matches, they walk away with $10,000.

Blank Slate is a Game Show Enterprises Studios production with Rane Laymance serving as executive producer. Richard Gerrits and Laura Robinson also serve as executive producers for Heath Street Media Inc.

Two-time Emmy-award winner Mario Lopez is the host of NBC’s Access Hollywood and Access Daily. He also hosts iHeart radio programs On with Mario Lopez and iHeartRadio Countdown with Mario Lopez. Actor, New York Times best-selling author, producer and host, Lopez also has an over-all development deal with NBCUniversal.

Lopez’s acting credits include This Is Us, Jane the Virgin, Saved By The Bell and Nip/Tuck, among many others. In 2008, he made his Broadway debut as Zach in the revival of A Chorus Line.
