Wall of Entertainment studio is set to premiere two new original series, “Substitute Teacher” and “House Rules,” on Tubi this summer. The partnership marks the UK-based studio’s first projects produced in the United States.
Founded in 2011 by actors Joivan Wade and Percelle Ascott, Wall of Entertainment will also release over 100 episodes of their programming spanning reality, comedy, game show, dating, cooking, sketch and drama on Tubi.
“This partnership is a key milestone for us. Tubi is the first to see our vision of bridging the creator economy and traditional entertainment industry — giving digital talent great formats and the full production infrastructure to make shows that compete with anything on TV,” said Wade, co-founder and CEO of Wall of Entertainment. “We provide these creators with an opportunity to go from social media to Hollywood — and walk away not just as talent, but with ownership as producers, with IP participation, and as architects of their own entertainment brands.”
Co-Founder and CCO of Wall of Entertainment, Ascott added, “We are excited to bring two flagship shows to Tubi as we continue to be part of the evolution of entertainment: a model where the next generation of TV-Quality formats are built by, for and with the creators audiences already love.”
“Substitute Teacher,” which premieres June 25, is hosted by content creator Charles Brockman III and is described as a “character-driven comedy game show that fuses sketch comedy, youth culture and competition all wrapped into one.” Taking place in a high school classroom, the show plays contestants DangMattSmith, HeyTonyTV, Nia Ivy and Lauren Ashley Beck against each other as they compete across escalating rounds of trivia and physical challenges, earning points towards being named class Valedictorian.
“House Rules,” which premieres July 16, is also a game show, one that features “two couples pitted against each other to see who really runs their house.” Hosted by content creator Laro Benz, the show oversees couples competing across four high-stakes rounds built around the chaos of life at home.
Joivan Wade, Percelle Ascott and Jonny Paterson serve as executive producers for both shows, with Charles Brockman III joining for “Substitute Teacher” and Laro Benz for “House Rules.” All episodes are co-directed by Wade and Ascott.
