What's the Story?

From the producers of Wipeout comes BULLSEYE, a reality series featuring contestants participating in hair-raising stunts for a chance to win some cash. Hosted by Twiligh's Kellan Lutz, it features four women and four men competing in physical challenges that require them to somehow land on, hit, or collect targets. After two elimination rounds that require contestants to do things like throw weights onto a giant target while hanging from a helicopter or being dunked head-first into a tank of water from 50 feet above, the remaining three contestants go head-to-head in a final round to collect the $50,000 prize. Throughout it all, comedian Godfrey conducts interviews and offers commentary.

Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say: Not yet rated
Kids say: Not yet rated

As with its sister series, Bullseye features folks willing to participate in silly and often dangerous stunts in exchange for cash. Beyond the excitement that comes with contestants successfully acting as human projectiles, it doesn't offer a whole lot.

The challenges are big, and sound effects, explosions, and other elements are added to create more hype. This usually makes the vibe more comical than dramatic, which takes the stakes down a bit. Nonetheless, folks who like this sort of light entertainment will enjoy tuning in.
