Sony Pictures Television to Unveil Family Competition Format ‘100 Choices’ at London Screenings

by

100 Choices, a freshly acquired family game show format by Sony Pictures Television (SPT), is all set to make its debut at the London Screenings. Originally obtained from Japan’s Fany Studio, this competition combines exciting physical tasks with mentally demanding puzzles.

100 Choices presents contestants with an extremely difficult question along with a list of 100 potential answers. To narrow down the possibilities, they must complete five physical tasks. Success in each task allows them to eliminate incorrect options. This creates a dynamic format that blends intelligence, strength, and teamwork for maximum enjoyment. The show is suitable for family viewing and can be customized for both studio broadcasts during prime time and outdoor filming locations.

The TV show “100 Choices,” initially created by Fany Studio in Tokyo and premiered on BS Yoshimoto in October 2023, was recognized by SPT for its global appeal. After a successful demonstration at the 2023 Asia TV Forum, SPT secured worldwide distribution rights. To facilitate its global release, SPT collaborated with local production companies such as Stellify (UK), B17 Entertainment (U.S.), Curio (Australia), Teleset (Mexico) and Floresta (Brazil) to oversee the format in different regions.

I, as a follower, am thrilled to share that Laura St. Clair, Senior Vice President of International Formats at Sony Pictures Television, has emphasized the wide-reaching appeal of our new creation, “100 Choices.” This innovative concept blends family entertainment and comedy game shows in an unprecedented way. The robust central idea makes it adaptable for weekend studio prime time as well as location shoots. I’m overjoyed about collaborating with the talented team at FANY Studio to globalize this captivating format. We eagerly anticipate showcasing it at London Screenings later this month, where we can’t wait to reveal its true potential!

Mari Kawamura from FANY Studio expressed similar thoughts: “The concept behind ‘100 Choices’ originated from the first episode of the ‘World Homerun Factory’ series on BS Yoshimoto. This show gathered comedians and producers to develop global formats. I am genuinely impressed by how this format embodies the core values of HomerunFactory, demonstrating adaptability and international relevance. Currently, ‘100 Choices’ is aiming for success in the global market. With the backing of SPT, I truly hope that this format will be cherished worldwide.

At SPT’s London Screenings 2025 scheduled for February 27th, the new format is set to make its grand debut. Here, attendees will get a sneak peek at the company’s most recent unscripted projects and scripted dramas.
