"Race to the Scene" is a reality TV show starring the well-known action star Dolph Lundgren as himself. It premiered on the ReelzChannel back in 2013 and lasted for one season of ten episodes. The show format is simple but definitely thrilling. Each episode is shot at a different location where a famous movie was made. The show's goal is to serve as a tribute to classic movies and provide nostalgic fun for the audience.

The show features two teams of contestants who compete against each other in various challenges related to the location and the movies filmed there. The challenges are designed to test the contestants’ knowledge of the movie, physical strength, and problem-solving abilities simultaneously. The team that completes the challenges the fastest and with a more accurate answer to 'what films were shot at the location' earns the honor of being declared the winner.

Each episode starts with spectacular footage of the location and the scenes from the movie filmed there, accompanied by the movie's soundtrack, giving viewers instant nostalgia for the film. Then Lundgren appears, teasing the viewers and cracking jokes while also giving a brief history of the movie's plot and the location of its shooting.

Later in the episode, the competition commences, and the teams have to race to 'scenes' from the movie's plot that were shot in the location. It might involve climbing the stairs that the protagonist ran up, finding a specific prop, solving puzzles resembling those from the movie, or a physical challenge to retrieve an object in a specific amount of time.

The challenges require both physical and mental efforts, like solving puzzles and answering trivia questions about the movie. Sometimes the contestants must rappel off a building or perform stunts related to the movie's plot.

The contest goes on for several rounds, and the losing team gets eliminated one by one until the final round. The final round involves tracking down the object of importance from the movie, which might be a briefcase, a golden idol or something else. The team that wins the final challenge wins the episode.

Dolph Lundgren's personality and humor add to the show's entertainment value, turning it into a perfect blend of action, adventure and humor. Lundgren serves as a knowledgeable guide for the viewers as well as contestants, offering insights into the making of the movies and the locations of their filming.

The locations, set designs and costumes used in the show are impressive as well. The show's producers have worked extensively to recreate the movie's atmosphere as it enhances the show's experience. The challenges are designed to be unique and entertaining, adding to the show's overall fun-factor.

The show has a unique concept that sets it apart from other reality TV shows. As the contestants race through the locations of famous movies, viewers get to relive iconic moments and locations of well-known films. With "Race to the Scene," It’s all about celebrating the movies we love and recreating their iconic moments.

The show has been compared to The Amazing Race, but the Race to the Scene format is more gratifying, since the contestants compete in recreating real-life activities based on famous scenes from the movies, adding a personal touch to them.

In summary, Race to the Scene is a unique reality competition show with an interesting concept. The action star Dolph Lundgren as its host adds personality, humor and nostalgia factor too. With its mix of movie trivia, physical challenges and recreating iconic moments, "Race to the Scene" is an enjoyable show for any movie buff or reality TV enthusiast.
