TBS has revealed plans for their new reality series "King of the Nerds," hosted by "Revenge of the Nerds" stars Robert Carradine and Curtis Armstrong. According to a press release from the network, the show will pit a collection of nerds against one another in a unique set of challenges.
"It's been said we're living in the 'Age of the Nerd', and if so, what better way to acknowledge that than to have a competition to crown the King of the Nerds?" said Michael Wright, TBS executive vice president, in a press release.
"King of the Nerds is a lot of fun as it not only celebrates nerd culture, but also illuminates it. We believe King of the Nerds is an ideal fit with The Big Bang Theory, and we look forward to having it on the network."
The show will reportedly premiere sometime in early 2013.
