At the end of Episode 7, there is a scene that features clowns and liquor but was never aired in time for the season finale. Originally, ten episodes were being produced, but due to the return of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire on primetime, the show was reduced to eight. Otherwise, the format remained the same from season one. Also, while season one had only one group game before the elimination game, season two added a second group game, with the winning team from the first game gaining an advantage in the second game. Other significant changes from season one was that Tony Sano, who hosted the first season, did not return to host the second season, and the number of players was increased from ten to twelve. The number of episodes were increased from seven to eight for this season. Like season one, it follows a group of Americans who leave the United States for Japan, where they compete in a Japanese style game show.

Season two of the reality show I Survived a Japanese Game Show premiered on ABC on June 17, 2009, and was the final run of the series.
