FOX Entertainment today announced that Nick Cannon - host of hit singing competition series The Masked Singer - has been named the new host of the popular competition format LEGO Masters. Cannon will join the show in its upcoming sixth season.
LEGO Masters is produced by Endemol Shine North America, Tuesday's Child and Plan B Entertainment, under license from the LEGO Group. Season Six of LEGO Masters will air on FOX during the 2025-26 Season.
"We're thrilled to bring LEGO Masters back for another season," said Michael Thorn, President of FOX Television Network. "Alongside our incredible creative partners, this beloved series continues to captivate audiences. Originally launched with the wonderful Will Arnett, the show now enters an exciting next chapter with Nick Cannon at the helm, who brings a new fun energy to the competition."
"I'm a huge fan of LEGO Masters," said Cannon. "It's an honor to join the series and host another show with my FOX family. Season six we're bringing an action-packed hour full of family fun, passion and for the first time ever, in-person audition episodes. I can't wait to see the insane creations and give away a big bag of money to the best of the best."
"LEGO Masters has truly built something special, and we're delighted to build another season with FOX! As we embark on this new chapter, we're particularly excited to welcome Nick Cannon to the LEGO Masters family as our new host. Nick is a proven entertainer with a fantastic rapport, and we're eager to witness how his unique style will elevate the competition during the new season," said Sharon Levy, Chief Executive Officer, Endemol Shine North America. "Of course, none of this would have been possible without the phenomenal Will Arnett, who guided us through five truly superlative seasons. Will's comedic brilliance and genuine passion for the show laid the perfect foundation, and we are immensely thankful for his incredible contribution."
For the first time ever, LEGO Masters will film in-person audition episodes for season six at LEGOLAND(R) California Resort on June 21 and 22, 2025. Park guests will be able to check out the action on both days and be inspired as some of the most innovative and passionate builders showcase their skills in hopes of being a part of the brand-new season. New host Nick Cannon and the brickmasters will be in attendance, helping to evaluate the hopeful builders and their creations. All interested applicants must bring a MOC (My Own Creation) to the audition tapings and must RSVP to apply as spaces are limited. Details about the show, auditions, eligibility and other terms and conditions can be found here: www.LEGOMasterstv.com.
LEGO Masters is currently airing its fifth season with host Will Arnett Mondays at 8:00-9:00 PM PT/ET on FOX and streaming the next day on Hulu. Next week, the eight remaining duos prepare to "Get in Gear" as they create a mind-blowing build that bursts with movement and tells a compelling story. Teams must incorporate at least two prebuilt geared moving elements into their build.

Referee Larry Thompson says.....
Gladiators, ready.
Amazon Prime Video's American Gladiators reboot has found its Gladiators, whom The Hollywood Reporter can first reveal. The new season will feature 16 gladiators — eight women and eight men, ages 22 to 38 (and standing 5'5" to 6'5" tall, weighing between 140 and 270 pounds) — picked from across the country. The group includes bodybuilders, pro wrestlers, former Division I athletes, CrossFit champions and military veterans.
The series will be hosted by WWE Superstar Mike "The Miz" Mizanin. His sidekicks will be sideline reporter Rocsi Diaz, the former co-host of BET's 106 & Park, THR reports; sports commentator Chris Rose will be on play by play. Rose hosts NFL GameDay Final on NFL Network alongside Maurice Jones-Drew.
Beyond Gladiators, Diaz is a contributor at GMA and GMA3, as well as other ABC News programming. She currently co-hosts Tubi's We Got Time Today with Deion Sanders. Rocsi was a regular guest host on MTV's Ridiculousness; her résumé also includes hosting Fox singing competition series Alter Ego. She was also co-host of Cannonball with The Miz.
The Miz will have five professional wrestlers keeping the show's contenders in check: Eric Bugenhagen (aka Rick Boogs), Michael Wardlow (aka Wardlow), Jessie Godderz (aka Mr. PEC-Tacular), Jessica Roden (aka The Ultimate Athlete, J-Rod) and Kailey Latimer (aka Kamille).
Pro wrestlers must have the physique to look good in spandex, as well as the athleticism and microphone skills required for the role; it's no coincidence they occupy a third of the show's on-camera talent slots.
"The original Gladiators were iconic, so our search for the new Gladiators had to be exhaustive. Our team went cross country, meeting with thousands of fitness influencers and professional athletes to find the highest caliber of competitors" Barry Poznick, general manager MGM Alternative, Evolution Media and Big Fish Entertainment, told THR. "Every Gladiator in this lineup embodies what it means to be a modern warrior — relentless, inspiring, and ready for the challenge of a lifetime. They are real-life superheroes."
Prime Video's American Gladiators will feature brand new events, as well incorporate some classics from the original series like "Gauntlet," "Hang Tough" and "The Eliminator." The original series is available to stream on a newly launched "American Gladiators" FAST channel on Prime Video FAST.
Below are the new Gladiators and their hometowns. The 16 Gladiators will have Gladiator names — like the OGs Gemini, Lace, Nitro and Zap — those have not been sorted out just yet.
- Abigail Lay (Springfield, MO)
- Ayinde Warren (Silver Spring, MD)
- Dani Means (Los Angeles, CA)
- Dani Speegle (Houston, TX)
- Drew Aggouras (Boston, MA)
- Emily Nelson (Mesa, AZ)
- Eric Bugenhagen (Milwaukee, WI)
- Fessy Shafaat (Orlando, FL)
- Jason Peele (Southern Pines, NC)
- Jessica Roden (Mount Vernon, OH)
- Jessie Godderz (Weed, CA)
- Joseph Hall (Sacramento, CA)
- Kailey Latimer (Durham, NC)
- Lu Faustin (Brooklyn, NY)
- Michael Wardlow (Middlefield, OH)
- Sydney Hunter (Sacramento, CA)
Shafaat was a previous contestant on The Challenge and Big Brother, where Godderz was also a contestant.
American Gladiators has been rebooted several times: in 1994 as a kids series, as a primetime special in 1995 and again as a series in 2008. A 2014 attempt at bringing the franchise back did not make it to air, despite having Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg as executive producers.
RuPaul's Drag Race has officially entered the Project Runway workroom.
With the reveal of a new slate of competitors Wednesday, Drag Race alum Utica Queen has officially joined the cast of Project Runway season 21. On the fashion show, Utica will go by Ethan Mundt, his real name, marking the first-ever crossover between the two beloved reality TV shows.
The Freeform series revealed its batch of 12 fashion designers, including two former Project Runway contestants, season 7's Jesus Estrada and season 19's Caycee Black. The rest of the cast includes Alex Foxworth, Angelo Rosa, Antonio Estrada (Jesus' twin), Belania Daley, Joan Madison, Joseph McRae, Madeline Malenfant, Veejay Floresca and Yuchen Han.
Mundt said of his pivot to Project Runway, "Walking into the Project Runway workroom felt like stepping into a dream, but even more surreal was walking in wearing something that carries the spirit of Drag with me."
"This moment marks the first ever Drag Race crossover onto Project Runway, and that's not lost on me. It's more than a look, it's a symbol," Mundt wrote on Instagram. "A symbol of how far our art form has come, of how the worlds of fashion and drag continue to grow, influence, and uplift each other."
Outside of its fresh slate of competitors, it was also revealed that Zendaya's stylist (and Drag Race rotating judge) Law Roach would be joining the judge's panel alongside Nina Garcia, with previously announced returning host Heidi Klum and mentor Christian Siriano.
Season 21, too, sports a star-studded guest judge list, notably including fellow fashion reality TV staple Tyra Banks. Additional guest judges include Real Housewives of New York's Jenna Lyons, Nikki Glaser, Michael Kors, Sofia Vergara and Joan Smalls, among others.
Season 21 of Project Runway will premiere via Freeform on July 31 and will be available to stream on Hulu and Disney+.

ITV panel show Sorry, I Didn't Know has landed a sixth season, with team captain Chizzy Akudolu stepping up to host in place of Jimmy Akingbola, who is filming the concluding season of Peacock's Bel-Air.
The show has broken its own record to once again become ITV's longest-running show from a Black-led production company, TriForce Productions.
Akingbola is replaced by Akudolu, who will be stepping into his hosting shoes, hoping to keep a tight rein on team captain Eddie Kadi and new team captain, the comedian and actor Richard Blackwood, who replaces Akudolu.
Filming will take place in the summer and will feature a roster of guests names following on from previous season's guests which have included Adjoa Andoh, Gina Yashere and Munya Chawawa. Akingbola will continue to EP and could host future seasons.
The show sees team captains plus guests take each other on in several quiz rounds mainly centered on Black history. It is believed to be one of the longest-running shows from a Black-led indie across all UK networks.
Exec Fraser Ayres said: "Chizzy has been part of the SIDK family since our pilot in 2016 and was amazing when she hosted an episode last series, so it's great to see her in the hosting seat. And in Richard we have the perfect sparring partner for Eddie – They're long-time friends and he has already shown he's a brilliant and hilarious guest, so we are thrilled he will be joining the team on the regular."
The sixth series was commissioned by Katie Rawcliffe and Gemma John-Lewis. It will be exec produced for TriForce Productions by Fraser Ayres, Minnie Ayres and Akingbola. The series producer is Delia Williams.

And what I didn't know is a Mistplay Game Break has come. What's the show that I forgot to remember ? Here are the clues.
- It was created in Germany in 1959 and ran until 2008
- CBS did a series of specials from 1977-1994.
- it's announcer was the voice of Jeopardy! himself, Johnny Gilbert.
- Bob Stivers was the producer of this show
- You might find Jennie Garth on the trapeze or Martin Mull become ringmaster.
Taylor Tomlinson waved goodbye to After Midnight with an emotional monologue, praising the team that makes the CBS late-night show and saying she was "very grateful" for the opportunity.
The comedian began by calling it an "emotional" night. "I'm so grateful that I got a chance to do this. I never thought that I would be able to host a late-night show. This was never something that was on my vision board at all because I just didn't think it was possible for me. I'm a touring standup and I feel very grateful to have that career that I do, and this opportunity came along at a time in my life where I could take advantage of it, and, while, unfortunately, I couldn't keep doing the show, it just wasn't sustainable for me. I can't believe that I got to do it as long as I did," she said.
CBS revealed that it was ending the 12:37am show after two seasons and was replacing it with Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen.
Tomlinson said it was her "dream that I would get to finish out this season and hand it off to a new host."
"I really wanted CBS to replace me, because I just think there are so many amazing comedians who would have done a great job with this show," she added.
She paid tribute to the whole team that makes the show from the hair and wardrobe to the writing staff and below the line crew, as well as the guests that have appeared.
"Let me just be sentimental for a second… the amount of work that goes into doing a show like this, it's insane," she said.
Tomlinson is returning to being a touring standup comedian.
"I had no idea how to be on TV every day. I had no idea how to do any of this. I had no idea how much work it was to make a late-night show every single day. We didn't have the budget of a traditional late night show. Everyone who works here was doing the job of several people… and everybody cared so much."
She closed out by saying that she wanted the audience to know "how much this experience has meant to me."
"I just want to say on camera thank you so much to the staff and crew of After Midnight for having me as your host for 200 episodes," she said.
Did you know also that CBS decided to pass this up? Watch.
Luckily, it's already FOR NOW on RTE America 36.1 Pacific Bay after we get on out of here. After weeknight Update, it'll be the Nightly Scroll with Hayley Caronia. We'll STILL be here FOR NOW after The First 25 with Chris Moyles and a BBC News Summary for 5 minutes.
