FOX has given the green light to LEGO Masters Season 4, it was announced today by Allison Wallach, President, Unscripted Programming, FOX Entertainment. LEGO Masters Season 4 will premiere in the 2023-2024 season on FOX with Will Arnett returning as host and executive producer.
In addition, the brand-new holiday-themed event LEGO Masters: Celebrity Holiday Bricktacular, which airs Monday, Dec. 19 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), Tuesday, Dec. 20 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) and Wednesday, Dec. 21 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), will return for a second installment, which is slated to air December 2023 on FOX.
“LEGO Masters represents what TV does best, bringing all ages together for a night of family-friendly fun and competition,” said Wallach. “The builders raised the bar with an incredible fusion of creativity and engineering genius in Season Three, which featured even more pop culture-piercing themed episodes and our toughest competition yet.
“With Will Arnett back as host, alongside our immensely talented production crew and partners at Endemol Shine America, the sky’s the limit on Season Four.”
In the Season Three finale, airing tonight (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX, the semi-finalists have ten hours to build a fountain that uses water to create movement within their build. The three teams that use water to meaningfully tell a story move on to the finale.
Then, it’s a red carpet finish as the three remaining teams are allotted 24 hours to build their best creation possible. There’s one final twist in store when the teams are given gift bags with the first sets they built as kids to celebrate 90 years of LEGO (buy LEGO sets here).
They must incorporate pieces from those sets into their master build, and the duo who impresses the Brickmasters most wins $100,000, the Master Builder title and trophy, and gets their creation displayed at LEGOLAND New York resort.
Based on the hit British reality-competition series of the same name, LEGO Masters brings imagination, design and creativity to life when teams of LEGO enthusiasts go head-to-head, with infinite possibilities and an unlimited supply of LEGO bricks.
Teams of two compete against each other in ambitious brick-building challenges to be crowned the country’s most talented amateur LEGO builders. In each episode, the competing pairs who impress the judges the most progress to the next round, until the finale, during which the top teams will face off for a cash prize, the ultimate LEGO trophy, and the grand title of LEGO Masters.
LEGO Masters Season 4 will feature masterful builders from across the country challenged with creating the most inventive designs to date.
LEGO Masters‘ third season is averaging 3.5 million multi-platform viewers, more than doubling its Live + Same Day delivery by +123%. It also ranks as television’s second-most co-viewed broadcast entertainment program among Adults 18-49 and Kids/Teens this season-to-date.
Next week, over the course of three epic nights, the very first Celebrity Holiday Bricktacular kicks off as the late Leslie Jordan, Robin Thicke, Cheryl Hines and Finesse Mitchell pair up with former contestants – Boone Langston and Mel Brown from Season 1, Natalie Cleveland from Season 2 and Dominic Forte from Season 3 – to compete in jaw-dropping holiday-themed challenges for charities of their choice.
Hosted by Will Arnett, the multiple-night event will air Monday, Dec. 19 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT), Tuesday, Dec. 20 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) and Wednesday, Dec. 21 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
