Wordle TV game show coming to NBC

The New York Times is transforming its popular Wordle game into a television game show set to air on NBC next year. "Today" show anchor Savannah Guthrie will host the fast-paced family game, with Jimmy Fallon also serving as a production partner. This marks the Times' first collaboration with a TV broadcaster for an entertainment program, reflecting its ongoing strategy to bolster its digital subscription business amidst declining print revenue. The game show has been in development for two and a half years, with filming scheduled to begin this summer.
