Claim to Fame Season 3 has kept fans hooked to their seats. The previous episode witnessed the elimination of Danny, whose celebrity relative is Marc Anthony. Subsequently, fans were eagerly looking forward to its upcoming episode. However, in a shocking turn of events, the show didn’t air on August 21. But, why the Claim to Fame Season 3 Episode 7 episode was delayed?
Here is everything you need to know about it.
Why was Claim to Fame Season 3 Episode 7 delayed?
Claim to Fame Season 3 Episode 7 was delayed due to the coverage of the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on the ABC network.
The new episode was scheduled to air on August 21 at 9 p.m. EDT. However, Claim to Fame’s time slot was given to the DNC. Thus, the show ended up getting delayed right before its grand finale, leaving the loyal viewers disappointed.
When will Claim to Fame Season 3 Episode 7 air?
Claim to Fame Season 3 Episodes 7 & 8 will air on August 28, 2024, clubbed together as a two-hour special finale episode.
A recent post on the show’s account on Instagram confirmed that the 2-hour season finale will air on August 28. The final episode will be airing at its scheduled time of 9 p.m. EDT on ABC. Viewers will witness the top four contestants — Hud, Adam, Shane, and Mackenzie — competing against each other for the cash prize of $100,000.
Hinting at a different ending this season, Claim to Fame’s host Kevin Jonas shared an exciting twist with TV Insider. He revealed that winning the final challenge would not lead to the contestant’s ultimate victory.
“If you win the last challenge, it does not mean that you are in full control. So, it’s going to be a little bit more problematic at the end. The friends you made along the way — or enemies — will matter,” Jonas stated.
The host’s statement ensures that the finale will be worth the week-long break. There will be more exciting celebrity reveals and only the best contestant will walk away with the victory crown.
