Blake Shelton is getting a new TV show on the USA Network with his buddy Carson Daly, and there is expected to be a lot of drinking.

Blake and Carson will star in, and executive produce, a new celebrity game show for USA Network called Barmageddon, which will be hosted by Nikki Bella. The series will take place at Shelton's Nashville bar, Ole Red.

Blake said in a press release, "Nashville is known for great music and hospitality, which makes it the perfect setting. I'm excited about 'Barmageddon' and can't wait for friends, old and new, to join my buddy Carson and me for some drinks, music, and high-spirited fun at Ole Red."

Two celebrities will go head-to-head in each episode, playing a set of five games to win a prize for someone who's gone viral.

A premiere date and the celebrities who will compete have yet to be announced. Both Shelton and Daly will be appearing on the show, with Blake expected to have live "song-a-longs" with the bar's crowd.

Shelton posted to Instagram, "Y’all heard it from @carsondaly on @todayshowfirst!!! #Barmageddon is coming soon to a TV near you on @usa_network. It’s so stupid you can’t not watch it... Can’t wait for friends, old and new, to join us and THE @thenikkibella for drinks, music, and fun at @olered. More to come!!!"
