DESCRIPTION:
(from Netflix's press release, May 2025) Beyoncé. Britney Spears. Adam Sandler. Those are just a few of the global icons who appeared as total unknowns on Star Search during its original run from 1983 to 1995. And now, the legendary competition series is returning in a brand new, supercharged format for new audiences — live on Netflix, and ready to captivate both longtime fans and a whole new generation. This time around, the talent is bigger, the stakes are higher, and the format is more interactive than ever: Each week on Star Search, emerging performers in music, dance, comedy, and kids’ acts will take the stage to compete for a shot at the spotlight. The competition unfolds over time, with eliminations raising the stakes and plenty of surprises along the way. It’s part talent showcase, part high-stakes drama — and it’s all live on Netflix. The reboot builds on the rich legacy of the show that helped launch the careers of a number of the industry’s biggest names, including Dave Chappelle, Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, and many more.
