Bingo! V Full On!! will go on air on October 31, the half hour episodes will air thrice a week on Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 7 pm. It will feature two teams fighting for a big final prize.

The contestants will be tested in physical feats such as running on treadmills, boxing with mechanical boxing gloves, using their bodies as human bowling balls and navigating the spinning turntables of doom.

Saurabh Kanwar, vice-president, content and communication, Channel [V], says, "Our research showed us the lack of a show which a family can sit together and watch without flinching at the content. There is clearly a place for a show which provides clean, unadulterated fun and that is what Bingo! V Full On!! plans to offer."

The participants will be selected from colleges all over the country. Selection will be based on how they perform in given activities, which will be a sample of the real contests waiting for them on the show. The show will have two teams, with three members each, and will have 13 episodes in its first run.
