Whammy! The All-New Press Your Luck: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Whammy! The All-New Press Your Luck is a revival of the classic game show in which contestants answer trivia questions to earn spins on a giant game board filled with cash, prizes, and the dreaded "Whammies" — animated characters that can wipe out a player's winnings. Hosted by Todd Newton, the series keeps the original show's risk-and-reward gameplay while updating the look and pacing for a modern audience.
