" 'Floor Is Lava' secrets: How Netflix series bubbles to the top in reality TV's summer of silliness". "Netflix's Floor Is Lava: the show to save the summer?". ^ a b c Heritage, Stuart (June 24, 2020)."Netflix's 'Floor Is Lava' is super dumb and fun. "How Floor Is Lava became Netflix's weapon in the new arms race of ridiculous game shows". In April 2021, the series was renewed for a second season. The series received renewed focus in December 2020 after being mentioned in the Netflix mockumentary film Death to 2020. The show's release coincided with several similar shows such as ABC's Don't and Fox's Ultimate Tag in what USA Today dubbed the "summer of silliness" while British GQ compared its "silly sets and close awkwardness" to "the belly-laugh slapstick of Japanese game shows" such as Takeshi's Castle. Īccording to executive producer Anthony Carbone, the show purchased, and repurposed the volcano used by Kanye West from the Yeezus tour.Įpisodes Series overview Seasonįloor Is Lava was released on June 19, 2020, on Netflix. As such, the courses are designed in a non-linear fashion with the second half of the first season acting as a "level two" and upping the challenge of the first half. Video games also were an influence in designing the levels, with the crew specifically citing Uncharted as an example. To the latter point, the setting was initially going to be a natural history museum before being changed to a mansion. Inspiration for the show includes the Indiana Jones and Night at the Museum film series. Instead, "every single object in the game is built and designed from scratch to be able to not only hold up to punishment but protect the contestants. In order not to break immersion, individual players do not use safety equipment. At one point, a proposal to add chemicals to make the lava glow in the dark was scrapped after the crew discovered that the formulation would render the lava toxic. Showrunner Anthony Carbone has cited Panda Express's Orange chicken as a close approximation. The actual formulation of the lava is a closely guarded secret which only a few crew members know.
Prior to finding the location, multiple Hollywood studios turned down the opportunity to host the show due to concern about its messiness. The show is shot at a disused IKEA in Burbank, California. Winners receive US$10,000 and a trophy in the form of a lava lamp. The second season dropped this aspect, but contestants now must each collect an "exit pass" before they can escape in addition, the two most successful teams compete head-to-head to complete a final course, The Volcano, to determine the winning team.
In the first season, the lava gradually sinks a step at the foot of the exit that may help contestants to escape the room easier, with the pool of liquid becoming more volatile after this point making objects above the lava harder to traverse. The winning team is that with the highest number of surviving members escaping the room or in the event of a tie, completing the course in the shortest time.
In each episode, three teams of three contestants try to complete the course. Contestants must clamber on top of and move between objects above the "lava", with the goal of reaching the exit without falling in. Contestants navigate an obstacle course in a room filled with 80,000 US gallons (66,614 gallons, 302,833 litres) of slippery, bright red goop that simulates hot lava. The show's premise is based on that of the children's game of the same name.
