QUICK TAKE

SNEAK PEEK OF FIRST 15 MINUTES FROM THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED SERIES PREMIERE OF "EXPEDITION IMPOSSIBLE" LAUNCHES ON ABC.COM AND HULU

ABC's eagerly anticipated summer series, "Expedition Impossible," premieres THURSDAY, JUNE 23 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET), but beginning today, Friday, June 17, viewers can catch a sneak peek of the first 15 minutes on abc.com and Hulu. Thirteen teams of three will race in an expedition across vast deserts, over snow capped mountains and through raging rivers in the beautifully exotic, fabled Kingdom of Morocco. Each week a new stage of the expedition will be revealed to the teams. Will they crumble under the pressure of having to think clearly in the wilds of the great outdoors, or will they find a way to work together to complete the expedition? After 10 stunning legs of competition with drama, comedy and great characters, one team will cross the finish line first to claim victory. Each winning team member will receive $50,000 ($150,000 total for the team) as well a new Ford Explorer.

"Expedition Impossible" was created by Mark Burnett, who also serves as executive producer with Lisa Hennessy. Both the television show and format will be distributed internationally by Mark Burnett International Distribution.
