ABC has enlisted a well-known joker to host its updated take on Card Sharks: Community grad Joel McHale has been tapped to emcee the forthcoming revival, TVLine has learned.
He presided over E!’s pop culture clip show The Soup for 11 years, then did the same on Netflix’s short-lived continuation The Joel McHale Show With Joel McHale.
“I’m very excited to be hosting Card Sharks,” McHale said.
The Alphabet Net’s new version of Card Sharks will begin with two players facing off in a head-to-head “elimination race,” where the winning player claims a $10,000 cash prize.
