Ever wanted to do a physical challenge? Well now might just be your chance. The host of Nickelodeon's best game show, in our opinion, Double Dare is claiming that he is looking to reboot the slimatastic franchise. The show spawned a few spinoffs including Super Sloppy Double Dare, Family Double Dare, and Double Dare 2000. While host Marc Summers has produced hit shows on the Food Network including Restaurant: Impossible, it seems like he can't forget about the fun times he had while hosting the sloppy game show.

"I think it would be fun to do it for college," Summers explained to the Huffington Post. "Think about it... The people who grew up on our show are now in their thirties and forties and they have kids. So, you could do second generation."

While this is something that we are actually dying to see happen, maybe just so we could possibly get in on the action, it doesn't seem like Nickelodeon is not very receptive to the idea. Marc says that he has made multiple phones calls to the kids network but it doesn't seem like the execs don't wants to talk to him.

"I've been trying to make nice to those people, but they refuse to talk to me," the former host explained. "I think they think I'm way too old to do it. I still have energy and I think I could. So I'm putting a call out to the folks at Nick; return the phone calls, have a discussion."
