We stakeout a supermarket, but not in real life, but wished we did. That's after the break.

The action hits the aisles as Supermarket Stakeout returns for a new season, premiering Tuesday, May 17th at 10pm ET/PT on Food Network.
Hosted by Food Network staple, Alex Guarnaschelli, each hour-long episode presents viewers with outdoor cooking battles where anything can happen, as four talented chefs persuade unsuspecting customers to sell their groceries as they attempt to turn the ingredients into themed culinary delights. A rotating panel of judges ultimately determines which competitor made the most successful menu over three rounds and is awarded a year's worth of groceries.
In each episode, the four chefs face off in a state-of-the-art, pop-up kitchen outside a grocery store, with the competitors given a budget of $500 to use through three rounds. In the first stakeout heat, the chefs must negotiate with shoppers for their grocery bags, sight unseen, as they are challenged to create a themed meal for the judges. In the second heat, the three remaining chefs use the leftover money from their budget to ambush shoppers for their groceries. In this round the chefs can see what's in each shopper's bag, but they can only make one purchase. In the last round, the final two chefs can explore groceries from as many shoppers as they like, but they can only buy five items total in their bid to find the right ingredients for their dishes and walk away with the grand prize. Viewers can also watch Alex take on some of the toughest carts from prior seasons in Supermarket Stakeout: What Would Alex Make? with new episodes beginning Tuesday, May 31st at 11pm ET/PT.
"Alex continues to shine across Food Network's daytime and primetime programming. We are thrilled to bring new episodes of Supermarket Stakeout to viewers that are full of signature 'anything can happen' moments and unexpected challenges that fans have come to love," said Courtney White, President, Food Network and Streaming Food Content, Discovery Inc.

RuPaul's Drag Race is adjusting its prize money for inflation of excellence.
VH1 announced Thursday that the queen who wins season 14 will pocket a cash prize of $150,000, marking the first time the show has upped the amount since season 4 back in 2012. Also for the first time in her-story, the runner-up will also receive a prize of $50,000 — funded by Cash App.
Winning queens have taken $100,000 at the finale since season 4, after season 1 winner BeBe Zahara Benet walked away with $20,000, and $25,000 and $75,000 going to season 2 winner Tyra Sanchez and season 3 champ Raja, respectively. The most recent queens to pick up $100,000 are Symone, who triumphed at the end of season 13 back at the top of 2021, and Kylie Sonique Love, who won All Stars 6 in September.
Though she also won $100,000 as part of her cash prize, All Stars 5 winner Shea Couleé has taken the highest prize in the American version's history, with a combined total of $130,000 in winnings between her final prize and tips accumulated from lip-sync battles throughout the season.

ALERT! Netflix announced today the release window for its hit reality competition series The Circle – and it's closer than you imagine. The streamer is marketing it as "the spiciest season" ever, which begs the question: how? The competition follows a group of people who interact through the "Circle", a social network in which you can present yourself as anyone you like. The most popular person in the Circle chat gets a cash prize after being voted by members of the competition.
For the new season, Netflix has kept the rollout strategy it has been using for its most popular reality series: dropping a certain number of episodes every week, as opposed to releasing the full season on the same day. This helps keep the buzz of reality competitions going, as well as preventing people from giving major spoilers – fans have time to catch up before the final episode is released.
The Circle Season 4 will premiere Wednesday, May 4 on Netflix, with weekly drops of four episodes leading up to the May 25 finale.

This July, ITV's Tipping Point will celebrate its 10-year anniversary, and there's lots more in store for the gameshow.
Ahead of the season 12 launch, which kicks off on the channel from 11th April, the show's host Ben Shephard opened up about the future of the quiz.
Asked how long he sees the series going on for, he told RadioTimes.com exclusively: "I think I will keep making it as long as people keep watching it." He continued: "I absolutely love it. My team are amazing - my execs, Sarah and Kate who have been with the show for as long as I can remember, are just extraordinary.
"I mean, there's so many unsung heroes with the show. People behind-the-scenes who continue to turn up and keep it there."
