The show, in which contestants race against time to defuse a model bomb by answering trivia questions and snipping colored wires, could be on track to be Keshet’s next global sales hit.
Rising Star, which Keshet introduced to the world market at TV market Mipcom last October, has already sold in more than 25 territories, including the U.S., where ABC plans to bow the show this summer.
Boom! was created by Keshet with Ido Rozenblum (who hosts the show in Israel) and July August Productions.
