First Look: ABC's 'Take the Money and Run'

Filed under: TV Previews

I was pretty excited when ABC announced 'Take the Money and Run,' its new reality series from 'The Amazing Race' and 'CSI' producers billed as a spy thriller where professional investigators and regular folks compete for $100,000.

Now that ABC has released the first promo for the new series and we have a better idea of what, exactly, contestants are doing, I'm just as pumped for the show's August debut. Basically, the real-person contestants have one hour to hide a briefcase with $100,000, and the investigators have 48 hours to find it. If they don't locate it, the contestants win. If they do, they win.

While the premise alone isn't as exciting as I had hoped, I'm certain there will be plenty of spy-related challenges involved. Who doesn't love a good caper?

'Take the Money and Run' debuts Tue., Aug. 2 at 9PM ET on ABC, but you can watch a preview of the new show after the jump.
