It’s more than just a bathroom break. Production on NBC’s Ultimate Slip N’ Slide competition series has come to a — uh — stall due to an outbreak of giardiasis, a disease spread from the microscopic giardia parasite.
Up to 40 crew members on set succumbed, with a production source reporting that people had “awful explosive diarrhea” and were “forced to run into port-o-potties,” with some even “collapsing,” according to The Wrap.
Ultimate Slip N’ Slide was announced in May as a post-Olympics 10-part series centered around the backyard play-set from the Wham-O company in which a sprinkler or hose squirts on a rubber mat that people glide upon.
The show’s hosts were set to be SNL‘s Bobby Moynihan and comedian Ron Funches. Funches is seen in Black-ish and Drunk History and voices King Shark on Harley Quinn. Both hosts are reportedly unaffected by the ailment.
