Have you been completing your daily Wordle challenge every day since the end of 2021, when the spelling puzzler first launched? If so, you may be the perfect candidate for the new game show that NBC is piloting. Deadline has reported that the show is being filmed in the United Kingdom.
Savannah Guthrie, known for her role on NBC's Today show and other journalistic work, will host the show. The project comes from Jimmy Fallon’s Electric Hot Dog company, Universal Television Alternative Studio, and The New York Times. Fallon, who has said he is "addicted" to Wordle on The Tonight Show, will serve as an executive producer.
This show follows The New York Times’ acquisition of the Wordle, which was originally created by Welsh software engineer Josh Wardle in 2022. The daily puzzle is still hugely popular. Last year, it was played 5.3 billion times, up from 4.8 billion in 2023. Everyone plays it, even Pope Leo.
This news doesn't necessarily mean that a Wordle game show will eventually air on NBC or Peacock. It still has several hurdles to overcome, including approval once the show is produced, before we’ll actually be able to see it.
CBS already has a Wordle-like show called Lingo, hosted by RuPaul Charles. It premiered in 2024 and has been renewed for future seasons. Lingo has been around for decades, as it originally began airing in the 1980s.
