Mark Burnett is back in the game show business.

ABC has ordered a pilot from the prolific producer for "Trust Me, I'm a Game Show Host."

In a format twist, the show will have two hosts who will match wits about various subjects with contestants culled from a studio audience.

One of the hosts will be telling the truth, the other will be deceptive, and contestants will have to figure out which to trust. Casting is under way for the two hosts.

The pilot, produced by Mark Burnett Prods. and Monkey Kingdom, comes after Burnett's game show "Our Little Genius" was pulled from Fox's schedule before its debut after Burnett alerted the network that young contestants might have received information about the show's questions in advance.

Burnett's "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?" was a long-running quiz show on Fox.

The producer still awaits a verdict from ABC on the fate of his reality series "Shark Tank." The show debuted in the fall but struggled in the ratings in tough time periods.

Let's hope this one is "on the level" and passes the sniff test by ABC's S&P department.

they better renew Shark Tank... and give it a real tiem slot and not yo yo it around..

ABC has not had good luck with game shows since the 1970's,and "Family Feud".In that era,they also had another memorable game show which was regrettably short-lived,called"The Big Showdown".Duds during that era:The Regis Philbin-(yes,Regis Philbin)hosted show "The Neighbors","Money Maze",and "The Better sex",and in the 1980's,the short-lived "All-Star Blitz","Double talk"(aka Celebrity Double Talk"),"Hot Streak",and "Bargain Hunters"Anyone remember these?
