As balls numbered 1 through 75 are randomly selected form a two-an-a-half story sphere in the Bingo Plex arena, viewers can also print their own Bingo cards via ABC's website to enjoy the fun of playing the game for free at home with an opportunity to win "thousands of prizes."
National Bingo Night will be hosted by British carpenter Ed Sanders, who works as part of the design team on ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. The pilot episode will serve as National Bingo Night's May 18 premiere, and five additional episodes will begin filming in April. For casting information, visit ABC's website.
