Circa Sports has released the third season of its docuseries 'Circa Survivor: The Quest for $18.7M,' chronicling the 2025-2026 football contest in which five players split a record $18.7 million prize pool. The seven-episode series is now available through an expanded lineup of broadcast, cable, and streaming partners across North America.
Circa Sports has launched the third season of its original docuseries, "Circa Survivor: The Quest for $18.7M," offering exclusive behind-the-scenes coverage of one of the largest legal football contests in the sports betting industry.
The seven-episode production, created by Foxdog Productions, premiered this week and will release new installments every Wednesday. The series follows participants in Circa Sports' football competitions, including the record-setting Circa Survivor, providing a raw look at strategies, high-stakes decisions, and the personalities that defined the 2025–2026 season.
Record prize pools and dramatic moments
During that contest period, Circa Sports paid out more than $31 million across Circa Survivor, Circa Million VII, and Circa Grandissimo. Five contestants in Circa Survivor achieved a perfect 20–0 record, splitting the largest prize pool in the contest's history—$18,718,000.
The season documents pivotal moments, from opening-weekend action and surprising upsets to devastating eliminations and million-dollar hedge plays, culminating in what the producers call "an unforgettable finish that rewrote the record books."
"Circa Survivor has become much more than a football contest; it's a story about competition, strategy, and the pursuit of something extraordinary," said Derek Stevens, CEO of Circa Sports, in a statement. The series provides an authentic view of what it takes to compete for millions, he added.
Expanded distribution across platforms
For its third season, the docuseries reaches its widest audience yet. Episodes air on MSG Network, NESN, SportsNet Pittsburgh, Game+ (Canada), and Right Now TV, and stream on Ryz Sports Network and Unbeaten Sports.
The distribution covers major U.S. media markets, millions of cable and broadcast households across North America, and hundreds of millions of streaming accounts via leading FAST platforms. New episodes also debut on VSiN's YouTube channel.
