LOS ANGELES, July 27 (UPI) -- CBS says it has selected eight families to compete in its new U.S. reality television competition series "There Goes the Neighborhood."
Set to premiere Aug. 9 on the network, the seven-episode show features eight families living in their actual suburban neighborhood while being surrounded by a massive 20-foot wall as they compete in games for the grand prize of $250,000.
"In what promises to be the ultimate social and family bonding experiment, the actual homes will be cut off from the outside world as it becomes family vs. family in a competition to win upgrades for their lives and their homes," CBS said in a release. "With virtually no electricity and no ability to text-message, watch television or surf the Internet, these families will be forced to reconnect and work together as a team. For the duration of the competition, the eight homes will be surrounded by the daunting 20-foot wall with no way in or out."
