Girls v Boys Puerto Rico

Promo for the Puerto Rico season

Girls v. Boys is an original series created by Noggin for its nighttime programming block, The N, which was aimed at teens. It is a competition series where teams of teen boys and girls are pitted against each other in physical challenges.

The show was produced by Dancing Toad Productions, the same company that made A Walk in Your Shoes for Noggin. The show aired from August 8, 2003, to January 8, 2007. It has four seasons, each named after the setting of the season: GVB: Tampa, GVB: Hawaii, GVB: Montana, and GVB: Puerto Rico.

History

Some of the show's episodes aired as part of an event called "The Love-Hate Reality Hour" that also included premieres of Best Friend's Date.

Summary

At first, anyone between the ages of 16 and 18 are asked to audition. From the second season on, Noggin and Dancing Toad usually received tens of thousands of auditions. They managed to break it down to three boys and three girls most times (four boys and four girls in Puerto Rico and Montana). They then send them to a house, usually with some ocean clearing.

The series then shows the competitions as well as the debacles between the two teams, both internally and externally. The purpose of the competitions is to attain a prize. It varied from season to season, but in Puerto Rico, it was $50,000 for the winning team and $1,000 worth of traveling gear split between the winning team members. Each competition earns the winners of the competition a set amount of points (raging from 100 to over 500 in the final event) and the team that earns the most points wins.
