Paradise Run is a game show and competition television series, hosted by Daniella Monet. The series premiered on February 1, 2016 on Nickelodeon.

Series overview

Paradise Run was picked up by Nickelodeon in December 2015, when it was announced that Daniella Monet would be the host of the show.^[1]

The series features three teams of children competing against each other in a series of challenges at a Hawaiian resort. It was announced by Nickelodeon that the series premiered on February 1, 2016.^[2][3]

The series is produced by Nickelodeon and Stone Stanley Entertainment, who had previously produced Legends of the Hidden Temple, another Nickelodeon game show in the 1990s.

In late March 2016 a casting call went out for children on Maui to audition to be contestants on a second season of Paradise Run, for a scheduled filming in May–June 2016.^[4]

Premise

At the Hilton Waikoloa Village in Hawaii, three teams of two children race around the Hilton Waikola Village competing in three different challenges that are given to them by Daniella Monet through the tablets that are provided for them.

The teams are sorted by Team Makani where Makani is Hawaiian for "wind," Team Nalu where Nalu is Hawaiian for "wave," and Team Ahi which is Hawaiian for "fire." The first team to complete all three challenges wins a four-day, three night trip at the hotel while the runners-up receive consolation prizes. During the completion of the challenges, they must take a selfie on the tablet and send it to Daniella. Once all three challenges are done, they must put together a riddle that once solved will have them racing to the suite that is the answer to the riddle where Daniella and the parents of teams are waiting where the ones who arrive first take their selfies with their parents.
