Brooke Burns And Mark Thompson To Host New Game Show "Hole In The Wall"

Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Fox's new Japanese-inspired game show, "Hole in the Wall," has found two hosts to oversee the show's wacky competitions.

Actress Brooke Burns and TV personality Mark Thompson will serve as hosts of the new show.

Burns has hosting experience, having hosted the game show "Dog Eat Dog." She also has acting credits that include roles in the comedy "Miss Guided" and "North Shore."

Thompson is a weather anchor for Fox's Los Angeles affiliate KTTV-TV, and provides voiceovers for such Fox series like "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?"

The new game show, from "American Idol" producers FremantleMedia North America, starts production this week in Los Angeles. The show has become popular after videos of the hit Japanese version began airing on YouTube. Even talk show host Ellen DeGeneres aired videos of the game show.

The concept of the show seems simple: contestants work as teams to try to fit through oncoming cut-out shapes or else they're pushed off a platform. Fremantle is producing versions of the show in several countries.
