Are you ready for another obstacle course? American Ninja Warrior has been renewed for another season, just two months after its 17th season aired. And this time, there is a big change.
ANW features sets of obstacle courses in various cities that competitors have to try and conquer. The courses are divided into Qualifier courses, Semifinals courses, and a four-part Finals course, which takes place on the Las Vegas Strip. Whoever finishes all of the courses in the fastest time takes home the grand prize.
Season 17 has reached more than 23 million viewers this summer on both NBC and Peacock. It is a top-five summer entertainment show among linear total viewers. In 2025, the show has amassed over 676 million social views across all platforms.
