Mattel Television is developing a game show based on its popular card game Uno that is described as a “larger-than-life televised competition” featuring four teams who will face off to become “the ultimate UNO champion" along with audience participation and over-the-top physical challenges and trivia. The Uno Game Show will be produced by Let's Make a Deal showrunner John Quinn.

Uno is gonna be made into a game show? What a surprise because my mom used to like Uno but we never could figure out how to play it so we just have the Uno games based on TV shows and celebrities and keep them as collectibles. I didn't even know that Mattel has a television production company now because I knew them as the number one toy company in the world. I bet if the Uno game show is a hit Skip-Bo might follow suit next as a game show because Skip-Bo is my mom's favorite card game

I like the card game Uno, but I can't see how to translate the game to television without it becoming unrecognizable.

I tend to agree with you. But I will check it out when it premieres. I just can't imagine how they're going to make it work as a game show.
