Holey Moley

Holey Moley is an American sports reality competition television series created for ABC by Chris Culvenor.

He noted that the producers had issued a casting call for the fifth season, which stated that applicants must be available to travel internationally in February and March 2023.

Professional basketball player Stephen Curry serves as executive producer and resident golf pro on the series, with ESPN/ABC's Joe Tessitore calling all the play-by-play commentary, comedian and actor Rob Riggle providing color commentary, and television personality Jeannie Mai as a sideline reporter (with Tessitore and Riggle wearing the same jackets that were worn by ABC Sports commentators in the 1970s).

[10] Culvenor explained that producers saw that other television competition series were dominated by fitness enthusiasts and wanted to create a show that most people could partake in.

"[11] Filming for the series takes place at Sable Ranch in Canyon Country, Santa Clarita, California,[12] which was previously used for the obstacle course game show Wipeout.

[16] In the first season, each episode consisted of 12 mini-golfers that compete in a series of head-to-head, sudden-death matchups on a supersized miniature golf obstacle course.

The website's consensus reads, "A fun, family-friendly show that benefits greatly from its hyperbolic hosts, Holey Moley is a delightful summer diversion.

[120][121] Initially slated for an August 2020 broadcast, the show started filming using an expanded version of the US course in California,[122] but abandoned production in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

[124][125] Greg Norman stars as the resident golf pro, alongside commentators Rob Riggle (reprising his role from the US version) and Matt Shirvington, along with host and sideline correspondent Sonia Kruger.

[126] The Australian Holey Moley set was intended to be reused for potential international adaptations from Germany, the UK and France;[127] however due to the pandemic and travel restrictions this did not eventuate before Eureka's contract for the site expired in July 2023.
