If you grew up in the '70s, you're probably familiar with the show 'Superstars,' in which Joe Frazier almost drowned while competing in a 50-meter race in a pool. He didn't know how to swim. The show has been redone and broadcast throughout the '80s, '90s and early 2000s, and its returning again this summer.This iteration will pit athletes against celebrities in a variety of different sports, including the 100-yard dash, 800-meter run, obstacle course, weightlifting, bowling, rowing, tennis, bicycle racing, basketball and swimming.
The athletes include Lisa Leslie, Terrell Owens, Robert Horry, skiers Bode Miller and Kristi Leskinen, baseball's Jeff Kent, tennis' Jennifer Capriati and soccer's Brandi Chastain. The celebrities include David Charvet ('Melrose Place'), Maksim Chmerkovskiy ('Dancing with the Stars'), Dan Cortese ('Surviving Surburbia'), Paige Hemmis ('Extreme Makeover: Home Edition'), Julio Iglesias Jr., Joanna Krupa ('Ultimate Women Fighters'), Ali Landry ('Eve') and Estella Warren ('Kangaroo Jack').
The six-episode show will begin airing June 23 on ABC.
