Since ABC's game show revival seems to be working it is reasonable to
assume that a new version of the Battle of the Network Stars could succeed
at least to ABC's expectations. Of course, the big stars of long running
series have no need to take part. But there are 400+ scripted series airing
now on all platforms and if we assume that each series has 5 main
characters, that means a possible contestant pool of over 2000 people.
Which would mean lots of "stars" you won't recognize from shows you may
only be faintly aware of. Still, as a summer show, it might bring in enough
viewers to make ABC and advertisers happy.
