Total Blackout was a game show hosted by Jaleel White on Syfy from 2012 to 2013. Contestants competed in complete darkness, relying on their other senses to complete challenges.

Casting for Total Blackout was unique—we needed competitive contestants who also had big, over-the-top reactions. We searched for outspoken, high-energy teams of two who weren’t just in it to win but would bring the fun, fear, and excitement to the game.
