Not strictly true regarding Supermarket Sweep.
The original UK version, with Dale Winton as host, had been a huge daytime success in the 1990s.
Its 2019 revival, this time with Rylan as host, was initially intended for a minor channel (ITV2) where expectations around viewing numbers are low. It performed sufficiently well there for a further series to be commissioned on the main ITV network, however ratings were poor and the show has since been permanently shelved.
It was nice as a Friday Flashback, but isn’t it really just people running around aisles madly? Still, I guess Tipping Point is a giant slot machine.
Maybe the format needs a bit of tweaking, though you can’t go wrong with a game show revolving around supermarkets. Universal appeal is there.
The programming of The 1% Club in the primetime slot is excellent. They knew they were onto something good and stuck with it. It shows that it’s possible to create a game show, or any programming that resonates for that matter and create success.
I personally think a Supermarket Sweep revival could do very well as it has all the hallmarks of universal appeal. Family friendly and dealing with markets, which everyone can resonate with. It was a success recently on ITV, one of the main channels in the UK, and the host Rylan is very likeable and charming.
