Status: Lost

Go For It is a lost game show pilot that was taped at Nickelodeon Studios at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida in 1997. The pilot was not greenlit in favor of "GUTS".

Premise

The game show had children contestants playing on an over-scaled game board, with the kids being the play pieces, with intellectual and physical games being played as well.

Availability

There is currently no video footage of the pilot that exists, and the only evidence of the pilot's existence is a picture of the set on the website of the production designer of the pilot, Diane Stapleton, who notably also worked on other Nickelodeon shows such as Weinerville, Roundhouse, and Get The Picture.

On April 2, 2023, YouTuber and LMW user BerLostMedia found 3 new photos of the pilot that were given by Diane Stapleton herself.
