WhileLive with Kelly and Markwill goon a hiatusover the summer, Kelly Ripa, 52, has another hosting gig to keep her busy. That's right—the TV personality's game show,Generation Gap, will be returning for season two on Thursday, June 29.
In case you never tuned in to the series,Generation Gapis a comedy quiz show that “pairs teams of seniors and juniors, challenging them to answer questions about pop culture from each other's generations,” according to theshow's official synopsis.
Back in May, Ripaannounced that the series would be returningin summer 2023. She shared a promotional image to her personal Instagram, along with a caption that read, “Are you ready for round 2? The second season of #GenerationGap premieres June 29 on ABC, and stream on Hulu! @GenerationGap.”
Last year, whenGeneration Gaphit our screens in early July, we learned thatthere are surprises in storefor these age-gapped contestants. For instance, the champions of the first-ever episode—75-year-old Marilyn and her grandson Nolan, 14—were awarded $24,250 for winning. However, when they wanted to add another prize at the end of the episode, they were presented with a segment called “Toddler's Choice.” During this closing, the family brought out its youngest member, 5-year-old Andrew, who ended up choosing a Razor scooter over a Kia Niro LXS car (womp womp).
The idea forGeneration Gap最初源于一段Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and Kimmel acts as an executive producer on the show. Other executive producers include Mark Burnett, Barry Poznick and even Ripa and her husband, Mark Consuelos.
In season one, Ripa's pal and formerLiveco-host, Ryan Seacrest, made an appearance on the show. If we're lucky, theAmerican Idolemcee might make a surprise appearance in season two. (*Fingers crossed.*)
Generation Gapreturns on June 29. We'll be tuning in each week to get our Kelly Ripa fix.
