Here’s everything you need to know about Snake in the Grass, from the premiere date to how the game works to some of the famous faces that will be appearing on episodes.
When does Snake in the Grass premiere?
Snake in the Grass premieres Monday, August 1 at 11 p.m. ET/PT following WWE Monday Night RAW.
How does Snake in the Grass work?
According to a press release from USA, “the players will compete in a series of grueling and mind-twisting challenges, from retrieving game pieces suspended on high wires over a 500-foot canyon, to scaling the face of a cliff to solve puzzles. With each successfully completed challenge, the competitors win a clue that helps reveal the identity of the Snake. Not wanting their identity revealed, the Snake will do whatever it takes to prevent the players from winning the clues by sabotaging their journey any chance they get. After overnighting in the remote and rugged Central American jungle, the group will meet in ‘the Snake Pit’ where they must determine who they think the saboteur might be. If the three players can successfully reveal the identity, they will win the $100,000. If they get it wrong, the Snake walks away with all the money for themselves.” Reality TV fans may see similarities between Snake in the Grass and the series The Mole, which ran on ABC in spurts from 2001 to 2008. Both shows have some sort of saboteur element to them. Though while The Mole had the same group of players going through the entire season, Snake in the Grass will feature a new group every episode.
