CBS has ordered the competition series Buddy Games, which is inspired by a real-life tradition involving executive producer Josh Duhamel and his lifelong friends. For the past 20 years, Duhamel and his friends reunite for a summer weekend, and compete in a variety of games.
“Being able to bring Buddy Games to CBS is truly a dream come true for me,” said Duhamel. “This is something my buddies and I have wanted to share with the world for a long time as we knew there was a relatability to it with other people doing similar things to strengthen their friendships. For me, getting to executive produce and host Buddy Games while observing these groups of friends let loose and become part of this big family has been an honor and will be a lot of fun for viewers to watch.”
