Fear Factor's Finest Moments: A Retrospect

Since 2000, many hit game shows in the past, such as Card Sharks, Lingo, and Password, have been revived in an attempt to bring back the viewing entertainment and pleasure it brought to millions of home audiences from across America.

This season of Fear Factor reminded us why the show was a hit when it was in its prime, with contestants competing in more extreme, disgusting, and physically exhausting stunts. Since it is apparent that NBC will not be airing new episodes of the show, this week’s article will delve into highlights of past seasons of show that turned your fears and phobias into reality.
