Forget the red carpet and the velvet ropes. This season, a new batch of pampered celebrities trade luxury for the harsh realities of military training in “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.” Season 3 takes the challenge to the extreme with a focus on ocean warfare, setting the stage for some seriously soggy suffering.
The picturesque, yet unforgiving, landscape of Wales serves as the backdrop for this season’s trials. These recruits, accustomed to the comforts of Hollywood, will quickly discover that there’s no room for diva behavior in the world of Special Forces. From the moment they arrive, they’ll be plunged into the deep end – literally.
The premiere episode throws the recruits straight into the churning waters with a dizzying array of tasks. Imagine leaping from a moving boat onto a hovering helicopter. Now imagine doing that after days of sleep deprivation and physical exhaustion. That’s just a taste of the torment in store for these unsuspecting souls. And if that wasn’t enough, a water endurance test will push them to their absolute breaking point. Will they sink or swim? Frankly, watching them flounder might be the most entertaining part.
“Ocean Warfare,” the season premiere, airs Wednesday, January 8, 2025, at 8:00 PM on FOX.
