GSN announced in a press release that the premiere episode of
“American Bible Challenge” brought in 2.3 million total viewers for the
night — the largest in its 17-year history. The show was so popular that
it outperformed GSN’s previous record holder by over a half a million
viewers.
America, a heavily-Christian nation, is clearly friendly to
Bible-based content. This very well may be what drove the show’s initial
success. Mixing the world’s most popular book with a game show format —
and adding in Foxworthy as a host — has, thus far, proven a recipe for
success.
