Destination X is nearly here!
NBC’s new competition series, hosted by Jeffrey Dean Morgan, premieres May 27 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on NBC following the season premiere of America’s Got Talent. Episodes will stream the next day on Peacock.
Viewers can catch an exclusive sneak peek of the series after the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, May 3 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.
Here’s the logline: “In the bold travel competition series, Europe is turned into a real-life gameboard as complete strangers are invited to participate in the trip of a lifetime and the ultimate geo-guessing contest. These adventurous players will traverse each country on a blacked-out Destination X bus with the goal of figuring out where the ‘X’ they are each week.”
“In each episode, the players disembark the bus to visit unique and unfamiliar tourist attractions that have been gamified into experiential challenges. They will need to rely on their knowledge of pop culture, history, geography and observational skills to win clues to their current location and earn an all-important advantage. Contestants must tap into their own personal expertise, identify hidden clues that are disguised as artifacts and discern intentional misdirects from competitors to ultimately determine their whereabouts. ”
The show includes stars of Love Island, The Traitors and The Bachelor, who hop on the adventure bus and change the trajectory of the game.
At the end of each episode, designated contestants must enter the Map Room and place their X on the map to indicate where in the world they think they are. The furthest from the actual location is sent packing. The final player standing at the end of the tour will find Jeffrey at the ultimate Destination X and win $250,000.
