The winter lineup is headlined by the premiere of the all-new original series Cash Cab Music, debuting with back-to-back episodes on Monday, January 8 @ 10PM ET. Created exclusively for AXS TV, the upcoming trivia series puts a fresh twist on a popular format, as host Adam Growe gives unsuspecting passengers the chance to win cash prizes by answering challenging questions spanning across the rich history of music. Cash Cab Music was produced for AXS TV by Castlewood Productions Inc.
Regarding the gameplay, contestants will start off by answering several questions that increase in value from $50 to $100, with the final round offering up questions that are worth $200 each. Those lucky enough to reach their destination with cash in hand will have the option to either take their winnings and leave, or risk it all by answering the “Cash Cab Karaoke” question – if they sing the correct answer they will double their winnings, but singing the wrong song will send them home empty-handed.
Other winter programming highlights include John Catucci’s cross-country culinary adventure You Gotta Eat Here! – airing daily, Monday through Wednesday, @ 8PM; as well as 36 all-new episodes of the viral celebrity sit-down series Hot Ones, airing Monday through Wednesday @ 9PM. Then, tune in every Thursday for hard-hitting pro wrestling action from a pair of globally-renowned promotions with TNA Impact! (formerly known as IMPACT Wrestling) @ 8PM, followed by New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) @ 10PM.
