“Celebrity Guests: Gabriel Iglesias & J.R. Smith” — Keegan-Michael Key hosts, as Team Gronk with comedians Bobby Lee and guest Gabriel Iglesias compete against Team Venus with comedian Ian Karmel and guest pro basketball player J.R. Smith, in a variety of outrageous challenges on the series premiere of GAME ON!, Wednesday, May 27 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. The elite athletes go head to head in epic contests, including kicking a field goal at the Colosseum during an L.A. Rams game, a battle of strength against the strongest man in the world and a soccer drill with musicians Mark McGrath, Coolio and Macy Gray. Pictured (L-R): Ian Karmel, Venus Williams, J.R.

CBS’ new show GAME ON! is billed as a new competition challenge, but it’s hard to properly prepare for how crazy the series actually is.
GAME ON!, loosely based on the UK series A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN (which was hosted by James Corden, who is an executive producer/guest star on the CBS show) finds two teams competing, one captained by tennis superstar Venus Williams, and the other by NFL’s Rob “Gronk” Gronkowski.
Every week Team Venus (Williams, comedian Ian Karmel, and a rotating guest) faces off against Team Gronk (Gronkowski, comedian Bobby Lee, and a rotating guest), as host Keegan-Michael Key leads them through challenges. But even the mundane things—like trying to answer questions—have extreme twists. (You try having a clear mind answering questions when the world’s strongest man is trying to push your teammates off a mat.)
