Note: Credit goes to theacf12 for finding out most of this stuff! So, some of you might remember the online ad announcing casting for a new show called Perseverance that literally billed itself as "This show is similar to Endurance". So, this may or may not be related, but there's been some information slowly leaking about a new show, roughly titled Extreme Camp, coming out in 2020... and I think it may interest some of us. First, here's a link to a casting call page for it: mediability.pro/current-calls/item/extreme-campThis is the description of the show "NOW CASTING 12-15 year olds across the nation for an epic adventure series on a MAJOR streaming network. We’re looking for OUTGOING, COMPETITIVE, and SMART KIDS who will compete in physical and mental challenges and have the summer of a lifetime! We are really trying to get full representation from all walks of life on this show. The show is created by JD Roth of GoodStory Entertainment. He produces shows like The Biggest Loser, MasterChef, and Endurance. If you know someone who LOVES adventure and vacation destinations and is competitive (with themselves or others) this will be a huge opportunity to win a BIG CASH PRIZE!" It sounds kind of familiar! We really didn't know much more about this or Perseverance other than the casting calls that were posted. But some clues have started to leak out... One of them from JD himself: Seems promising! Maybe I'll have to get HBO Max! Then, if you stalk a former Endurance contestant... I don't know about y'all, but I'm getting pretty hype. JD AND Lilly both say it's going to be amazing. It may not be the exact Endurance reboot we've always wanted, but something is coming and I'm down to check it out.

SLFJSKDJS!!!!! YES PLEASE!!!!
I was so worried that casting call was a hoax since we never heard anything more about it. Omg I'm so excited to see what becomes of this!
Now JD, create an adult version so that all of your grown-up Endurance fans can compete! Haha

I hope it manages to stretch its appeal to the next generation, because of the differences in technology between the original Endurance cast and now. And I'm glad about Lilly's involvement--one generation helping the next of Endurance/Extreme Camp contestants! And yes to that kwdrewfan, including the alumni!

Also... hour-long episodes?!Well, there aren't any commercials on HBO, so that should help. Also, with the TV show being called "Karma", E5's impact right there.

That's Lilly now? Wow. It's awesome she's involved.
Extreme Camp makes it sound more like Serious which was also on DK.
I'm not sure how I'll get HBO Max. I have regular HBO.
And absolutely Darci!

I don't have HBO in any form or fashion, so I will definitely be relying on others to share the love hahaha

According to Michelle Khare's (the host) Instagram story, the grand prize is $50,000! What a step up from Endurance!

kidscreen.com/2019/10/10/how-hbo-max-is-separating-itself-from-competitors/First picture of some of the cast is in this article! Looks very diverse! Also: "It leans into the popularity of reality competition series with its set-up of 12- to 15-year-olds working in teams of two on a series of challenges and obstacles—leading to potential outcomes that could come back to bite them." Teams of two!!! Very reminiscent of Endurance!!!
