Ten-episode prank show You Kiddin’ Me will see celebrities challenged do everything their children say, with members of the Facebook community chosen to participate.

Jennifer O’Connell, Brian Tannenbaum, Peter M Cohen and Melissa Stokes will executive produce alongside Kardashian West.

The show joins Lionsgate’s growing roster of unscripted series, including the recently launched The Joel McHale Show with Joel McHale on Netflix and Music City on CMT, as well as forthcoming programme Kevin Hart: What the Fit for YouTube.

The producer’s partnership with Kardashian West was negotiated by Lance Klein of WME and Tannenbaum, senior VP of creative and business affairs, alternative programming at Lionsgate.

You Kiddin’ Me will be available on mobile, desktop and Facebook’s TV apps.
