'American Ninja Warrior' 2020: How COVID changed the game
LA Times“American Ninja Warrior” paused filming the day before it was set to begin. The course was to be housed at the Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis, “a facility that is so massive there’s enough bathroom sinks that you could pretty much claim your own for the entire shoot,” executive producer Kristen Stabile told The Times. I have made some real forever friends — something I did not expect to come out of this very different season.” Television The ‘Supermarket Sweep’ reboot wants to be a nostalgia trip to life before COVID-19 Hosted by Leslie Jones, ABC’s “Supermarket Sweep” reboot was filmed during the COVID-19 pandemic — but you might not know it. Where other series returning to production this summer have decided not to emphasize the familiar features of life in the pandemic, like mask wearing, “American Ninja Warrior” doesn’t shy from the subject — from images of the series’ crew cleaning the obstacle course to a nurse who works with COVID patients competing in scrubs. “I mean, this could have a very negative effect on some people who watch the show, because it makes them uncomfortable, because ‘American Ninja Warrior’ is an escape and they don’t want to have to confront the issues that are out in the world,” said Richardson, who competed in the season premiere in a “Ninja for Black Lives” tank top.
