In November 2012, MTV2 announced that the series would be returning in 2013 after a six-year hiatus. The series will follow Cannon as he searches high and low for the newest upcoming comedy stars, along with bringing back familiar faces from previous seasons of the series. It will also feature the show's original cast.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news/2012/11/12/mtv2-greenlights-re-imagination-of-nick-cannon-presents-wild-n-out-to-premiere-in-2013-228212/20121112mtv01/ )〕 The premiere episode of season five had 1.1 million total viewers, making it the highest-rated telecast in MTV2 history. In November 2014, ''Wild 'n Out'' was renewed for a seventh season by MTV2. The show is scheduled to continue its run on Wednesday December 16, 2015. ==Premise== Similar in premise to shows such as ''Whose Line Is It Anyway?'', the series puts two teams of comedians against each other in a series of Wild 'n Out games which are all basically "improvisational" comedy games. The Teams are the "Red Squad", which was the team name until Season 5 where they became the "Platinum Squad" and were permanently Captained by Cannon and the "Black Squad", led by a celebrity guest until Season 7 where the situation was reversed with Cannon becoming the new permanent Black Squad team captain and the celebrity guest leading the Platinum Squad. After three such games, the two teams square off against each other in the final round of the game called 'WildStyle', in which they must deliver a punchline directed at their opponent's team member(s) within a freestyle rap. The comedians "beef" with each other; however, some are impersonal jokes (such as many jokes directed at Cannon for his marriage to, and subsequent divorce from, singer Mariah Carey). Although similar to ''Whose Line'', the "points don't matter", the teams score one point per round victory during the normal rounds, plus one point per favorably judged punchline during 'Wild Style'. Each episode also includes a musical performance, occasionally by the guest captain for the Black Squad. At times, the musical guest comes out just before 'Wild Style' as the judge for the beefs. Major changes were implemented for the second season including shifting the show location to Hollywood and the teams now compete for a "Wild 'n Out" Championship belt which if the Black Squad wins, the team captain gets to take home. As of Season 5, the show once again shifted locations from Hollywood to New York City. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wild 'n Out」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
