WHAT: My Family’s Got GUTS is based on the groundbreaking Nickelodeon original hit game show, GUTS.  The new and improved series is being recreated for a new generation of families.  This extreme sports competition series brings families together where every member of the team -- from the smallest to the strongest -- plays a vital role and works together to complete each challenge.  Every episode will feature two teams of four players (two adults and two kids) who gather in the ‘Extreme Arena’ to compete against each other in two rounds of events inspired by today’s extreme sports.  The point values increase each round giving both teams a chance to come from behind.  In the final round, the families face off on ‘The Crag,’ a new updated 3D, super challenging version of the original GUTS’ Aggro Crag fantasy mountain.  The team with the most points at the end of all three rounds wins the competition.
