One of our favorite (or at least most addicting) apps is making its way to television. CBS announced that Candy Crush will be getting its own TV game show.

The one-hour, live action game show series will consist of teams of two people who use their “wits and physical agility to compete on enormous, interactive game boards featuring next generation technology to conquer Candy Crush and be crowned the champions.”

Executive producer Matt Kunitz, who’s worked with shows like Wipeout and Fear Factor, said that he’s excited to “amp up the action and visuals” in a huge “Candy Crush Arena.”

Though we’re not totally sure what that means, we are actually pretty excited to see the game come to life.

“We are huge fans of Candy Crush and, like so many others, we know the ‘rush’ of advancing to the next level of the game,” said Glenn Geller, President, CBS Entertainment.  “We’re excited to work with Lionsgate and King to adapt one of the world’s most popular and entertaining game franchises for television and make it available to its massive, passionate fan base who can watch and play along at home.”
